The Real Life Drama of Worship

When we read the bible in public you are rehearsing the mighty acts of god to god's glory. We need to recover a sense of integration with older liturgical styles and contents which actually i think there is more of an appetite for doing now. There was a kind of ultra Protestantism a while ago which said that any sort of formality anything that isn't purely free floating and informal must be legalistic and ritualistic and therefore wicked. Worshippers should draw on the riches of that great tradition and sharpening up refining whatever but do it in a rich way rather than a pepfunctory way.
