2012.09.09 - Kevin Makins - Liturgy: Why We Gather and Why It Matters
Hebrews 10, Matthew 22, James 2, Matthew 7
Eucharist Church meets Sunday afternoons. Sunday afternoons are PRIME real estate for being lazy and relaxing. But week after week, dozens of people bike, bus, drive and walk to join together in worship… why?
What’s the point of gathering as a church every week? In an age of podcasts and audio lectures and books, aren’t their better ways to learn about God?
Why do we gather? And does it really matter?
Music starts 32 minutes in.
