Another reminder that weekly corporate worship is not the equivalent of TAFE or an Amway Rally.
From Douglas Wilson:
“What are the elements of our worship service as we renew our covenant with God weekly? But first a word about this word renewal, which might be misunderstood. We do not renew our covenant with God because it was going to expire or run out, like a lease. We renew our covenant with God because it is our life; we renew covenant with God in worship the way food renews physical life or sexual communion renews marriage”
(A Primer on Worship and Reformation, pp. 36-37).

Where does this idea of “covenant renewal” come from. I’ve heard of it. But that’s about all.
Hold that thought.
I’ll be back later.
