Synopsis

In The Day of Worship, author Ryan M. McGraw tackles the oft neglected biblical topic of Sabbath. Many books have been written on the day of rest, yet most believers still do not observe this holy day.

About this title

From the Inside Flap:

"In the last fifteen years, there has been renewed interest in the nature and purpose of the fourth commandment and what many refer to as the Puritan Sabbath. By God's grace a conversation has begun that is helping many come to a fuller appreciation for and use of the Lord's Day. Pastor Ryan McGraw's voice in the conversation needs to be heard. As he says, 'I have sought to address what I believe to be the primary underlying issues behind the widespread neglect of the Sabbath day.' Pastor McGraw's book is chock-full of biblical insights, freshly applied to the issue of the Christian Sabbath. I have been helped by the book and know that each one who reads it will be as well." Joseph A. Pipa Jr., President, Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary
