“Jeremiah Burroughs, in his classic book Gospel Worship, said, “The reason why we worship God in a slight way is because we do not see God in His glory.” Modern man hears about a God who isn’t worth worshiping. Why should he worship a God who wants to do good, but can’t pull it off because man just won’t cooperate? Who then is sovereign?
Man is!” – Don Kistler

“Jeremiah Burroughs’ Gospel Worship has greatly influenced my understanding of biblical worship. It is one of the most important books I have ever read.”
–R.C. Sproul
“This treatise on Leviticus 10:1-3 is a call to propriety and sobriety in the worship of God. It deals with the believer’s sanctification through “three great ordinances”: (1) Hearing the Word, (2) Receiving the Lord’s Supper, and (3) Prayer In a day that promotes man-made forms of worship, Gospel Worship is a call to biblical worship of the Triune God though the means that He has instituted. Burroughs shows how important worship is to God and teaches us how to “give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name” (Ps. 29:2). He makes plain that we do not need new forms of worship to be relevant, but to renew old forms of worship.”
