Wright explores both the meaning and the results of Christian worship. Part 1, "The God Who Is Worthy of Praise," focuses on what worshiping God actually means. Wright celebrates the greatness and beauty of God as the ground and reason for worship and shows how reflection on who God is leads us to true, heartfelt worship (from "worth-ship"), as we seek to give God all he's worth. Part 2, "Reflecting God's Image in the World," addresses a range of issues that flow from the activity of worship. Since worship can never remain isolated from the task of the church, Wright here explores how true worship leads to the mission of the church in various specific ways. Based firmly on sensitive and creative readings of the biblical text, this book is an inspiring call for renewal in the worship and witness of today's church. All Christians worship God, but many do not fully understand what "worship" means. This insightful book by N.T. Wright explores both the meaning and the results of worship. Part 1, "The God Who is Worthy of Praise," focuses on God and on what worshiping God actually means. Part 2, "Reflecting God's Image in the World," addresses a range of church-related issues that arise from the activity of worship. Based firmly on sensitive and creative readings of the biblical text, For All God's Worth is an inspiring call for renewal in the worship and witness of today's church. One of Wright's shorter treatises, this time on "worship" of God and how Christians and the church reflect Christ's image in society. In reality, a series of chapter-essays with a somewhat consistent theme. Many of the essays are fantastic; others of them, not so much. The attempt to justify ecumenism is weak (ignoring Galatians 1 in favor of chapter 2), and the idea of "worship" throughout reflects the modern church's confused understanding of an English word and the Greek words underneath it. Others, on Levi and Jesus' death and resurrection, are quite worthy of consideration. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
