Is Worship Boring?

Dr. Whitney,
I just finished reading a report in the Baptist Press on your lecture about God-centered worship and want to thank you for your teaching. It was encouraging to me to hear a clear voice in the midst of all this confusion about worship that seems to be in our churches today. I am very distressed about what is happening to us. I am praying that God will use your teaching to touch many confused ministers and leaders who need a bibical view of worship rather than the one we are seeing in so many of our congregations.
Glenn Stark, pastor Saginaw (MO) Baptist Church

Worship Experience, Christmas Eve Sunday
"I'm writing about the "worship" service we attended yesterday, Christmas Eve morning. I suppose I'm typing these words as much as a catharsis as anything. Early on I decided that if I had to endure such an experience, I might as well take notes and use the event as a reservoir of illustrations."

.
Is Worship Boring?
"If we will consciously include only those elements that are God-centered and 'prescribed in Holy Scripture,' I believe God's people will find worship nourishing, and rarely boring. Spiritual life and light are not boring, and these come to us only when we focus on God through Christ and feast upon Him through His written self-revelation."
