We Have Seen His Glory sounds a clarion call to worship in light of the coming Kingdom. Ben Witherington here contends that Christian worship cannot be a matter of merely continuing ancient practices; instead, we must be preparing for worship in the Kingdom of God when it comes on earth. The eight chapters in this thought-provoking book each end with questions for reflection and discussion—ideal fare for church study groups.
“In this study I hope to tease some minds into active thought about what worship should look like if we really believe that God’s Kingdom is coming. . . . It’s time for us to explore a more biblical and Kingdom-oriented vision of worship.”
