With so much attention given to the presentation aspect of modern worship services, is it possible that many people attending church today forget to focus on the primary purpose of actually being in God's presence? Pastor Steve Gaines fears this is the case and calls for a return to the core point of corporate worship in When God Comes to Church. His goal is to "Send people out the door saying not 'What a sermon!' or 'What great music!' but rather 'What a Savior!' ... the only 'Wow!' in a church should be God." With that in mind, Gaines writes thoroughly about what attracts God to our worship gatherings--sincere prayer, repentance, unity--and warns against the worldly hindrances to pure worship such as legalism, liberalism, and fanaticism.Gaines, Steve is the author of 'When God Comes to Church Experiencing the Fullness of His Presence in Worship', published 2007 under ISBN 9780805443981 and ISBN 0805443983.
