Tozer on Worship and Entertainment ─ Selected Excerpts

Tozer on Worship and Entertainment are excerpts from the writings and sermons of A.W. Tozer. A.W. Tozer continually points out that we are saved to worship God. All that Christ has done for us in the past and all that He is doing now leads to this one end. A.W. Tozer had strong convictions about the subject of worship as well as its corruption by what he referred to as the Great God of Entertainment." The excerpts in this book were carefully selected to give you a clear picture of his thoughts on both topics. Part one is the well-known sermon by A.W. Tozer "The Act of Worship"' that then leads to various topics of discussion broken down by these chapters:

• Worship
• Unacceptable Worship
• Spiritual Concentration
• The Presence of God
• The Power of God
• Personal Communion
• Adoration
• Hymns
• Entertainment
• Evangelical Heresy
• Propaganda
• An Outward Shift
• Modern Evangelism
• Religious Activity
• Worldliness

Also included are Tozer's controversial essay, "The Menace of the Religious Movie," written in the mid-1950s. You might not agree with Tozer but as always he "draws a line in the sand" and causes the reader to think critically about a subject that even today many Christians struggle with in the daily societal norms and what is acceptable and unacceptable in our daily Christian walk.
