Does going to church feel more like a duty than a privilege? Too many of us are in danger of overlooking the awesome presence of God in corporate worship. We've missed the fact that amazing things happen when God draws near.

Paul Engle invites us to join him at seven different biblical mountains where God met his worshipping people. Explore biblical history —from Sinai to Zion to Carmel to Gerizim to Hermon to the Mount of Olives to the heavenly Zion— and gain a fresh appreciation for the awesome privilege and reward of coming into God's presence in God-centered assemblies today.

Paul E. Engle (MDiv, Wheaton College Graduate School; DMin, Westminster Theological Seminary) is an author and ordained minister who teaches as a visiting instructor in the doctor of ministry and practical theology departments in seminaries in the United States and around the world.

“A handbook for worshippers . . . a mountain map to teach them what it means to gather for worship and the impact that worship can have on their lives.”

“Engle uses the stories of seven mountains in Scripture to remind us of the trinitarian God who is what worship is all about.”
