We worship so that we live in response to and from this centre, the living God.

People who do not worship are swept into a vast restlessness, epidemic in the world, with no steady direction and no sustaining purpose.

The stairway to the ministry is not a grand staircase but a back stairwell that leads down to the servants’ quarters.

Never before has the world been so desperately asking for answers to crucial questions, and never before has the world been so frantically committed to the idea that no answers are possible.

Christians in community must again show the world, not merely family values, but the bond of the love of Christ.

Worship is a meeting at the center so that our lives are centered in God and not lived eccentrically. We worship so that we live in response to and from this center, the living God. Failure to worship consigns us to a life of spasms and jerks, at the mercy of every advertisement, every seduction, every siren. Without worship we live manipulated and manipulating lives. We move in either frightened panic or deluded lethargy as we are, in turn, alarmed by specters and soothed by placebos. If there is no center, there is no circumference.

Worship is a meeting at the centre so that our lives are centred in God and not lived eccentrically. We worship so that we live in response to and from this centre, the living God.
