The Air I Breathe: Worship as a Way of Life by Louie Giglio
5.0
The Air I Breathe by Louie Giglio
Worship is more than singing on Sunday morning. While that’s part of it, worship is the essence of what makes us truly human. God sparked this desire within our hearts from the day He first breathed life into Adam and Eve. Since then, every single human who has walked this planet has participated in this God-given ability, and divine quest. While many have squandered their gift, there are those who find the wonder-filled life of communion with God no matter the time or place.
True freedom comes when worship flows through us as naturally as the air we breathe, when the words and actions in our lives resonate with our Creator so deeply that every inhalation is full of meaning. When we understand the holiness of the God who knows the stars by name—and His overwhelming love for each one of us—how can we offer anything less? - from the publisher.
Louie Giglio begins the book by talking about that we as humans are designed to worship. Throughout the rest of the book, he challenges the reader to question what they are worshipping. Each chapter digs deeper into the concept of worship. Beginning by defining worship, to personalizing worship to corporate worship. Christian readers will find themselves challenging what their previous thoughts on the concept of worship. This book is very readable but challenging at the same time. Recommended to any reader which wants a challenging but readable book to digest. Readers will be coming back to reread this title to continue to challenge their Christian walk. There is no specific scripture cited during this work so if the reader is looking for a more scripture grounded read, they will be disappointed.
I received an ARC ebook from Netgalley and the publisher, WaterBrook and Multnomah in exchange for an honest review.
