    About this audiobook

    What's at stake in our worship? Everything. In this prophetic wake-up call for the contemporary church, Mark Labberton reconnects Christian worship with biblical justice. From beginning to end, worship must pursue justice and righteousness, translating into transformed lives that care for the poor and the oppressed. Labberton shows how to move beyond the comfort of safe worship to authentic worship that is awake to the needs of the world.
