Short, Accessible Book Explains the Essential Elements of God-Designed Worship
Are Christians worshiping God the way we want to or the way he commands us? People often base church attendance around music selection or teaching style, but worship according to our own desires leads to idolatry. Scripture shows us how to bring our focus back to God as we preach, pray, read, sing, and see his word.
In this addition to the Church Questions series, Erin Wheeler details the biblical elements of corporate worship and helps readers prepare their hearts to edify their local church family. Emphasizing the importance of following a gospel-centered practice rather than trends, Wheeler shows readers how they can express their praise to God through beautiful worship that glorifies him.
- Brief, Applicable Guide: Developed to give biblical insight into common questions around corporate worship
- Edifying for Church Seekers and Congregants: Convenient resource for those new to church or for Christians looking to grow in areas of praise and church participation
- Part of the Church Questions Series: Other titles include What If I Don’t Feel Like Going to Church?; Why Should I Join a Church?; and What Is the Church’s Mission?

Endorsements
“Christians are pressed by very real questions. How does Scripture structure a church, order worship, organize ministry, and define biblical leadership? Those are just examples of the questions that are answered clearly, carefully, and winsomely in this new series from 9Marks. I am so thankful for this ministry and for its incredibly healthy and hopeful influence in so many faithful churches. I eagerly commend this series.”
R. Albert Mohler Jr., President, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
“Sincere questions deserve thoughtful answers. If you’re not sure where to start in answering these questions, let this series serve as a diving board into the pool. These minibooks are winsomely to-the-point and great to read together with one friend or one hundred friends.”
Gloria Furman, author, Labor with Hope and Missional Motherhood
“As a pastor, I get asked lots of questions. I’m approached by unbelievers seeking to understand the gospel, new believers unsure about next steps, and maturing believers wanting help answering questions from their Christian family, friends, neighbors, or coworkers. It’s in these moments that I wish I had a book to give them that was brief, answered their questions, and pointed them in the right direction for further study. Church Questions is a series that provides just that. Each booklet tackles one question in a biblical, brief, and practical manner. The series may be called Church Questions, but it could be called ‘Church Answers.’ I intend to pick these up by the dozens and give them away regularly. You should too.”
Juan R. Sanchez, Senior Pastor, High Pointe Baptist Church, Austin, Texas; author, The Leadership Formula: Develop the Next Generation of Leaders in the Church
“Where can we Christians find reliable answers to our common questions about life together at church—without having to plow through long, expensive books? The Church Questions booklets meet our need with answers that are biblical, thoughtful, and practical. For pastors, this series will prove a trustworthy resource for guiding church members toward deeper wisdom and stronger unity.”
