Cantor Phillip Magness wrote a three-part series on worship. Part 1 focuses on how the Holy Spirit creates and sustains the Christian community through the Word and Sacraments. Part 2 discusses the alien nature of worship. As God’s people receive His alien righteousness, so also the community of the church is alien to this world. In Part 3, Magness reminds us that worship, while remaining God’s work, is incomplete without you.
