How Then Should We Worship? The Regulative Principle (Sam Waldron)
$15.00$18.99
How then Should We Worship sets out guidelines for a distinctively Reformed worship, according to the regulative principle of the church.
I have taught seminary courses on worship for over two decades only to encounter resistance to the idea that God regulates how corporate worship should be done. Even those most committed to biblical and doctrinal accuracy suddenly become relativists when discussing public worship. Enter Sam Waldron! How should we worship on a Sunday? Dr. Waldron’s answer is Scriptural, sensible, systematic, and (sometimes) strong. Is there a case for a regulative principle of worship? Read this book and find out.

How Then Should We Worship?
The Regulative Principle and Required Parts of the Church’s Corporate Worship
“In the milieu of the worship wars that has taken place over the past three-four decades, a scriptural voice of sanctified reasoning calls out to the church today from Dr. Sam Waldron. With a masterly grasp of the Holy Scriptures and a keen understanding of the religious landscape, the reader is given a balanced and full-orbed prescription for worship from both the Old and New Testaments. It must be carefully noted that the triune God does not want worship of any sort or any kind! Instead, He wants worship that is acceptable (see Hebrews 12:28-29). I heartily commend How Then Should We Worship?, which will thoroughly instruct us in how to worship God acceptably.”
— Earl M. Blackburn, Pastor, Heritage Baptist Church, Shreveport, Louisiana, and author of Jesus Loves the Church and So Should You
Further Endorsement
“Why do we care so much about how the church worships? Sam Waldron answers that question providing a strong defense of historic Reformed worship, its regulative principle, its authorized elements, and related issues. He writes for a Reformed Baptist audience, yet his argument is important for all serious disciples of Christ. We care, he answers, because it makes a difference if Scripture fills the elements of worship: if substantial portions are read; if whole books of the Bible are preached; if there is a full diet of Bible-filled prayer; if psalms are sung; if the Lord’s Supper is administered as a covenant meal.
We care because it makes a difference if services are reverent rather than irreverent. God-centered rather than man-centered; gospel-structured rather than unstructured and random; Spirit-dependent rather than market driven; historically grounded rather than contemptuous of the past. It makes all the difference in the world if worship is conducted according to Scripture rather than according to preference. This is a work that deserves careful consideration from all those who wish their form of worship to be more, rather than less, pleasing to God.”
— Dr. Terry L. Johnson, Senior Minister, Independent Presbyterian Church, Savannah, Georgia, and author of The Family Worship Book

Going Beyond the Five Points: Pursuing a More Comprehensive Reformation (Rob Ventura, general editor)
$21.95In recent years, a doctrinal shift has taken place among believers so great that even the secular press has taken notice. Christians across denominational lines are laying hold of the biblical truth of God’s electing love and saving grace in Christ, commonly called Calvinism.
For many, this marks the beginning of a deeper study into the whole counsel of God in Scripture. A thirst to be thoroughly biblical in all areas of life is driving a more comprehensive present-day reformation beyond the famous ‘five points.’
This book captures the voices of seasoned Reformed pastors graciously guiding and encouraging Christ’s beloved sheep to press on and to seek the ‘old paths, where the good way is’ (Jer. 6:16).
