Book Reviews of The Air I Breathe: Worship as a Way of Life
Book Review: Toppling idols
Summary: 4 Stars
We were created to worship. Our problem is that we choose not to worship God. While that's definitely a problem for everybody, it's especially a problem for believers, who call themselves by the name of Christ. Of all people, we ought not to be caught worshiping anything or anyone else! This little book (122 pages, including discussion questions and citations) packs a wallop as it directs our eyes away from man-centered definitions of worship, instead asking us to consider how God defines worship. And it's not wholly related to our music.
Does music play a part? Sure, because music in most Sunday morning services is designed to help us stop thinking about ourselves (usually), and "fix our eyes on Jesus, the Author and Perfecter of faith." But we can't live unGodly lives during the week and expect our words on Sunday mornings to please God. The mouth speaks out of that which fills the heart, says Matt. 12:34, and if the meditations of our heart are unacceptable to Him, the words coming out of our mouths are only lies.
But Giglio doesn't leave us there. He moves us from being aware of the problem to being part of the solution. We must change our minds about what worship is, and learn how to work with God to topple those idols, exchanging worship of a lie for worshiping in spirit and truth. A hint: it's not about what you say. It's about what you do. Not just on Sunday mornings, but all week long.
Obviously, worship is a topic that needs more than 100 pages to work through, especially because it's the primary task to which God has called all His saints. But with the profusion of idols in every heart, the task of being conformed to the image of the Son can seem daunting; we don't know even how to begin. Louie Giglio has written a little book, but this little book can go a long way to help us renew our minds as we cooperate with the Spirit of God to renovate the throne-rooms of our hearts.
Summary of The Air I Breathe: Worship as a Way of Life
Where Do You Worship?Not everyone may frequent the church on the corner, but we each have a place of worship. For some, it?s at the office. For others, before the mirror. Still others, on the basketball court. You were created to worship! So you naturally find a place to do it. But to worship anything less than God robs both Him and us. It?s at the foot of the cross where we reel, trying to comprehend how a holy God could chase us down with kindness and redeem us from an eternity of futile gods. In this newly revised and refreshed edition of the original The Air I Breathe, you?ll find your sense of worship increasing beyond church walls or a Sunday routine. Soon all of life becomes your delighted response to God!
Everybody Worships Something

We are all worshipers?of something. But are we spending our lives and filling our days with what matters most?
Newly revised, The Air I Breathe will awaken you to the reality that worship is more than a service on Sunday. It?s every moment reflecting God?s glory and grace.
