Back To Basics: The Mission of Remembering In Worship

After more stories of hardship, I asked, “Are any of you frustrated with what your families went through back then and how it's affected you all these years? I mean, I would be and I wouldn't blame anyone who felt that way.”
Consider for a moment what is about to happen — what IS happening today in that city of millions. God is drawing them to himself, certainly, because that’s what God always does. Millions right there are about to make some kind of decision concerning God, or have made, or will make. This month. Right now.
It can be all too easy to only see what’s right in front of our face, but when we step back a bit, we can see there’s far more going on, in far more imaginative and creatively diverse ways than we could ever really track.
We have before us an urgent call to discover what our Teacher, Jesus, would show us if he were among us today. If we could watch him or hear him, what would we learn about worship? I imagine it might turn a few things upside down. Worship, as we have come to know it today, may even come unhinged. That’s okay. Maybe it needs to.
