- Title
GATHERED WORSHIP: PERSONAL PREFERENCE OR SACRIFICIAL SERVICE?
- Authors
Towner, Andrew
- Abstract
Disagreement continues to surround the issue of style in gathered worship, and yet Christians are called to love and serve one another sacrificially. This essay examines Jesus' call to footwashing and statement of the two great commandments, applying them to gathered worship. Such language is not heard strongly within current disagreements, and provides a much-needed corrective. Many areas of church practice are not issues over which Christians should divide, yet they remain divisive. Into this context, all Christians need to hear Jesus' call to wash each other's feet, and to be reminded that worshipping God is worked out in love of others.
