Get out of the way
Terry Storch has a great post (video and all) that provokes some interesting thought.
- “We look forward to worship every week.” I think this is true…and sad. Worship should be a part of our every day. I sing on our worship team and something our worship leader, Leon Beaudin, repeats time after time is that we can’t take people someplace we’ve never been.
- “When the music stinks, we yawn and wonder why the worship wasn’t very good.” I think we, as church communicators, so focused on engaging those who walk through our doors, can sometimes lose focus of the very simple fact that it is ALL about God.
Our challenge is to balance the need to engage people in worship while being sure to never getting in the way of worship.
Personally my challenge is to turn off critique mode long enough to allow myself to enter into true worship…even when the worship screen displays another cheesy ocean scene.
