Authentic Worship 101 has been a long journey of development for Rick. He first envisioned the idea for this book in 1992. After this dream was birthed in his heart, Rick walked through some painful times. Those paiful times have served as valuable life lessons that is reflected in his book. As you read of his journey, you will see why Rick says, " It's not about the road... It's about the jouney."
