The first of Jerry Bridges's three books on private worship for WaterBrook Press, released in January 2001 with the subtitle Encountering His Greatness in Your Private Worship. An introduction, "He Is Worthy", considers what private and corporate worship involve and offers questions for self-examination before worship. Thirty readings follow, a month's worth, arranged under four attributes of God: his greatness, holiness, wisdom and love. Each devotion ends with selected psalms, and the chapters include prayers meant to lead the reader into praise. Publishers Weekly reviewed it as a follow-up to The Pursuit of Holiness. It was followed by I Will Follow You, O God and I Give You Glory, O God.
