Reading Time: 2 minutes I listen to a variety of podcasts, including ones which are highly secular. One podcast in particular features two people who join various religions and test out pseudo-scientific remedies, and then report back on their experiences. They’re atheists, and while I find that many of their metaphysical assumptions are poorly thought out, I’m always curious to hear such viewpoints. In Christianity, I’ve noticed that “worship” is an incredibly nebulous topic,…

Reading Time: < 1 minuteMy friend, Kent West, combined the audio from a lesson I gave on “worship” with some of my notes.

Looking for Worship in All the Wrong Places. (Or: What is worship/service?)

Looking for Worship in All the Wrong Places. (Or: What is worship/service?)

Lucas Necessary

Reading Time: 21 minutesI recently saw some people talking about whether or not it’s a sin to talk with someone visiting the assembly during “the worship.” For many, “coming to worship on Sunday” is important, but is it at all what is described in the New Testament? What, exactly, is “worship?” Does the New Testament even mention a “worship service?” Turns out, it doesn’t! What’s going on here?
