Worship is the submission of all our nature to God. It is the quickening of conscience by His holiness; the nourishment of mind with His truth; the purifying of imagination by His Beauty; the opening of the heart to His love; the surrender of will to His purpose - and all of this gathered up in adoration, the most selfless emotion of which our nature is capable and therefore the chief remedy for that self-centeredness which is our original sin and the source of all actual sin.
William TempleThe first ingredient in conversation is truth, the next good sense, the third good humor, and the fourth wit.
William TempleIt is sometimes said that conduct is supremely important and worship helps it. The truth is that worship is supremely important and conduct tests it
