Great book on worship!

Having recently read a number of books on worship, I found Chris Tomlin's to be concise, extremely relevant, and well-written--kind of like the songs he writes, I guess. I think the biggest strength of this book is that Chris is so real. He doesn't try to come across as a saint, and so he makes the ideal of living out worship seem attainable. And it didn't hurt that I kept laughing aloud at his stories.

Great Book

Chris Tomlin is one of the thankfully increasing artists who place their emphasis on giving God glory rather than writing songs (and books) that focus on themselves. While the book is about Tomlin's call to become the song writer and musician he is today, it's also about the God who was always at work in his life guiding him and directing him to where he is today. I did not own any of his albums prior to this book, but bought Arriving after completing this book. Whether you're a Tomlin fan or just like reading about how God works through the lives of others, you'll enjoy this book.

Chris Tomlin is awesome!

If you have heard his music, you know that Chris Tomlin is an incredible worshipper and all he does is try to get you to the place where you see God face to face. The book is great! Chris combines lyrics, Scripture and notes from his heart to move the worshipper into a deeper relationship with God and to become a true worshipper in Spirit and in truth... If you love his albums, the book is a must!

Amazing and moving

This book was simply awesome. My dad actually sat down and had lunch with Chris at a conference in Willow Creek. I read his book, telling of his life and the way he came to Christ, and I was truly moved and in awe of what he had become because of Christ.

An Excellent First Book

Most people know Chris Tomlin for the powerful worship music he writes, songs that are sung in thousands of worship services every Sunday Morning. He is renowned for his talent as a songwriter and worship leader, and now he has written a book. I was very much looking forward to reading it, mostly because I had read writings of his before, and they were always wonderful, thoughtful, and above all, praising and in awe of God. This book has a lot of personal stories, lots of scripture, memories of some of the songs he has written, and the verses that brought about those songs, but mostly, this book is about getting you, the reader, focused more on God, and developing a better relationship with him, and becoming who He has made us to be. Chris' desire in writing this book is to help you along your spiritual journey and share his thoughts from his experiences about God, and what God is wanting from us. It is awesome. His writing is easy to read, but without being simplistic; he adds quite a bit of humourous stories and lines in it to keep your attention and connect with you, but honestly, it wasn't needed. It's a hard book to put down. Chris writes as he if he talking with you, sharing a one-on-one conversation, which makes this book even better. My only complaint is that it is not nearly long enough. Praise be to God for the wonderful people he has put here on this earth, people like Chris who have genuine hearts for God and for others, people who have willingly chose to listen to Him and to follow Him and share His glory with others.
