Perspectives on Worship

"What's even worse is that now the term worship is used for a style of worship. If it is loud and fast, they call it praise, and if it is slow and intimate, they call it worship. Worship is far more than music. It is a lifestyle (Rom 12:2).....The most common mistake Christians make in worship today is seeking an experience, rather than seeking God. They look for a feeling, and if it happens, they conclude they have worshiped. Wrong. In fact, God often removes our feelings so we won't depend on them. Seeking a feeling, even the feeling of closeness to Christ is not worship."....Rick Warren

"Worship is not just singing. Unfortunately many have come to define the act of worship solely by music. So leaders need to redefine worship and explain that singing is but one form of worship expression. It is not the third sacrament....Dan Kimball (you gotta love this guy's Elvis hair)
