A Christian motivational speaker shares his story of discovering the greatness within himself—and how he has helped so many others do the same. If you’ve ever questioned your worth or wondered what your gifts are, motivation speaker David Kohout can help you find the answers you seek. In Standing in the Presence of Greatness, he explains how nothing in life is wasted. Even illness, injury, job loss, and countless other situations we see as a crisis can in reality be a doorway to something greater. At the start of his journey, David Kohout was full of questions and oblivious to the seeds of greatness that he held. His struggle reached a point of desperation before he reached the other end of the tunnel. Along with Kathy Palumbo, David shares his journey with you, and explains just how he came to the point of self-realization that allowed for a bright new phase of life.

Nothing is more essential than knowing how to worship the God who created us. This book focuses readers on the essentials of God-honoring worship, combining biblical foundations with practical application in a way that works in the real world. The author, a pastor and noted songwriter, skillfully instructs pastors, musicians, and church leaders so that they can root their congregational worship in unchanging scriptural principles, not divisive cultural trends. Bob Kauflin covers a variety of topics such as the devastating effects of worshiping the wrong things, how to base our worship on God's self-revelation rather than our assumptions, the fuel of worship, the community of worship, and the ways that eternity's worship should affect our earthly worship. Appropriate for Christians from varied backgrounds and for various denominations, this book will bring a vital perspective to what readers think they understand about praising God.
