In celebration of the release of the audiobook version of “Abiding In The Place of Worship,” Dr. Pugh invites everyone to join him online Friday, September 6 at 7 p.m. CST and 8 p.m. EST for a discussion around a few topics in the book.
Initially released in paperback format by Books2LiveBy publishing company, the Foreword of the book was written by the phenomenal theologian and biblical scholar – Rev. Dr. Ralph Douglas West, Senior Pastor of The Church Without Walls where Pugh serves as Artist In Residence.
A tremendous teaching tool for Worship Leaders, “Abiding In The Place of Worship” is endorsed by the likes of the global preaching sensation Rev.
