Deep down we know it: There has to be more than singing songs on Sunday morning, handing out tracts at work, or helping out at the soup kitchen. How do we integrate worship, evangelism, and justice into our lives as a whole, rather than compartmentalizing all three? Mike Pilavachi wants to see all three elements come together! With humorous prose and fascinating stories, he shows how the natural outflow of worship is telling people about Jesus, and compassionately helping them navigate the injustices of the world. We can't invite someone to church and ignore their physical needs; nor can we give out food at the local church pantry and disregard people's spiritual hunger. Says Pilavachi: "A life of passionate worship means feeding the hungry, standing up for those who suffer injustice...We must preach the gospel at all times, speaking and acting out God's love to a hurt and broken world."

I don’t think anything was “revolutionary” in the book for me, but it was a good opportunity to re-remember that Worship of our Creator is much more than an hour or two in any given week and that if we are who we say we are then our very lifestyle needs to be worship-full.
One thing that caught my attention was finding out how “clean” my local bank’s investments are - it’s something I haven’t done yet, but I am curious to know if my local bank invests my money in things that I would have a problem with myself. ( )
