Worshiptainment? What next? Again I return to my firmly held belief that if we, who say we are believers, don’t take worship and the Christian life seriously, how in the world to we expect anyone else to do so? I doubt the early Christian martyrs, nor those who live daily with the threat of REAL persecution, had or have concerns about how much fun it all is. This whole “worshiptainment” mentality has really come to wear on me.

You are right, Anonymous. And I think it would take our breath away to hear the worship coming from those prison cells. It might not sound like music, but I think it sounds like heaven.
I don’t want to be worshiptained.

Dorothy Sayers says in her “The Greatest Drama” that the Gospel story is…”the tale of the time when God was the underdog and got beaten, when he submitted to the conditions he had laid down and became a man like the men he had made, and the men he had made broke him and killed him. This is the dogma we find so dull–this terrifying drama of which God is the victim and hero.
If this is dull, then what, in Heaven’s name, is worthy to be called exciting? The people who hanged Christ never, to do them justice, accused him of being a bore…”
We don’t need worshiptainment; we need humility and repentance at the feet of the Almighty. -

Oops. Sorry. I didn’t mean to send that twice.
