Worship without Music

Yesterday we had a great worship sevice at church...and there was no music! So many times when we hear the word "worship" or talk about worship we think about music...yet worship is so much more than just music. They had a great video clip about worship and they went through all the things that worship is not and then what through the things that worship is. I wish I had the video to share with you (and to watch again).

One thing that I particularly enjoyed about the service was the reading of the songs, instead of singing them. So many times I have gotten to know the lyrics of a song and you just sing them from memory and it doesn't always sink in what you are singing. By reading the words it made you focus on what you were reading and not just singing from memory. Sometimes instead of singing along with a song I just like to read the words and let them sink in.

If you missed the sermon, you can listen to it at the GCR Website.
