Why should those who are #Reformed & #evangelical insist on the importance of #liturgical #worship ?
Because:
1) Worship is always presented as liturgical in the #Bible
2) Liturgical worship is the historic/universal form of the Church’s worship.
3) Liturgical worship is #sacramental - it presents the Gospel not only via the word, but also through the #sacraments ordained by God - and as such it is more faithfully biblical.
4) ALL the magisterial reformers worshipped liturgically.
5) Biblically shaped liturgy is missionally oriented - it shapes the worshipper for/towards #mission .
6) Liturgy is formative of “sticky” #faith : a) because it engages a person’s whole being, it tends to reinforce faith wholistically (not merely intellectually), b) because it is is sacramental the person TANGIBLY encounters God’s #grace , c) because historic liturgy is robustly biblical it soaks the person in Scripture, and d) because it is patterned/repetitive it becomes engrained. -
In #reformed and #evangelical circles we really lack an important element in #faith #formation - the ability to look to those #Christians who have gone before us and offer a particularly faithful exhibition of conformity to #Christ.
I’ve been attempting to fix this by introducing the congregation I serve to some of our great brethren from the past.

It can take decades to recover from Fundamentalist Christian indoctrination. For some people it can take their whole life.

#TheRapture is one of those serendipitous finds that used to make #CableTV so satisfying for me.
The best thing (along with #FullBodyMassage) that I've seen #MimiRogers in, and also my introduction to #DavidDuchovny.
The post-80's #evangelical theme is, sadly, still timely. I don't know if the rest will hold up.
I do know that ending has stuck with me more than 30 years and is why #TheCriterionChannel has it in 90's #horror.
