#Throwback Thursday: Warrior Poets of the 21st Century by Robin Mark

posted on by digital

As we reminisce on the over forty years that God has blessed Ambassador International to remain in business, we are highlighting a different #backlistbook each week in a series called #ThrowbackThursday.

Today we’re highlighting the book Warrior Poets of the 21st Century: A Biblical and Personal Journey in Worship by Robin Mark for our #ThrowbackThursday. Robin Mark is a Northern Irish Christian Robin Mark, Author of Warrior Poets of the 21st Centurysinger, songwriter, worship leader, and recording artist based in Belfast, Northern Ireland, and he may be most known for his song “Days of Elijah.” We were {are!} thrilled to partner with him in bringing the message of Warrior Poets of the 21st Century to the world at large. Warrior Poets of the 21st Century was published by Ambassador International in 2007.

What is Warrior Poets of the 21st Century about? Worship. It’s about how absolutely important worship is and how, perhaps, it is the highest calling and occupation of the believer. But it’s not about excellence of musicianship in played and sung worship. It’s #Throwback Thursday: Warrior Poets of the 21st Century by Robin Marknot about personalities or individuals, or specially gifted folks, or style, or technique. It’s not a ‘how to’ book, or a work book, or a ‘here’s a service schedule that’s bound to work’ type book. It’s about how God calls us all to be His worshippers and how, perhaps, every single one of us can, through a deeper understanding of worship, make an impact and a difference in the society in which we live.

“Never let the pursuit of excellence be the pursuit of your heart.”

ChaosCalmSynopsis: Chaos to Calm: Fulfilling Life’s Purpose Through Worship is a guiding light for those who are searching and disillusioned in their lack of fulfillment and purpose in life. It seeks to lead the discontented, dissatisfied, and unfulfilled down the only life-fulfilling passageway. A passageway leading to the only true Light and Giver of contentment and purpose—Jesus Christ—the One our hearts were created to worship.

Before true worship can occur, we must first understand what worship is and to whom it is to be offered. Worship is not exclusively a Sunday morning activity. True worship encompasses every aspect of our lives: work, play, and church. Everything we say and do, every minute of every day, is to be offered as our worship. We must also realize that we do not come before a gentle Shepherd, but before the mighty terrifying King of Ezekiel and Revelation. As we see Jesus for who He truly is, we will then begin to “walk in the fear of the Lord.” Only as we see Jesus in His rightful state and walk in the fear of the Lord will we be able to express true worship and experience the fulfillment and purpose our hearts desire.

For the believer, who in the midst of all service and church related activities can find no relief from the discontentment of life, Chaos to Calm offers enlightenment in the knowledge that true contentment will never be ours until we fill the emptiness of our lives with Jesus Christ. Through Him alone were we created to be satisfied. Through Him alone all worship belongs.
