Celebrating God's worth is the essence of worship. Songs that glorify God place him in his proper place as the focal point of the universe. And they place us in our proper place, kneeling at his feet in adoration. Open Your Hymnal contains 52 devotions that transport the worship models of classic hymns and gospel songs into the twenty-first century with relevant scriptural connections and practical applications. With honesty, insight, and humor, Denise Loock challenges readers to make worship an integral part of daily life. Introduce yourself to the rich spiritual heritage hymns contain or gain a fresh perspective on songs you've sung since childhood. Whether you sing in the choir loft, the worship team, or the pew, the biblical insights in this book will enhance your appreciation for the songs God's people have written and sung since the days of Moses. Invigorate your faith. Awaken a fresh wonder for God in your heart. Open a hymnal and worship with me.
