Manage episode 407292051 series 3559344
We are constantly surrounded of images of the good life. From trends on social media to the mall to the university, our eyes and ears are bombarded with opportunities to live your best life. This vision of the good life distracts us from true life that is found in Jesus Christ.
The Lord, in Jeremiah 2:13 says, "for my people have committed two evils: they have forsaken me, the fountain of living waters, and hewed out cisterns for themselves, broken cisterns that can hold no water." (ESV) We, like Israel are constantly looking for something to give us life, and we often try to find that in various broken cisterns.
James K. A. Smith says, “Historic Christian worship is fundamentally formative because it educates our hearts through our bodies.” Together with the church as we sing, confess, pray, kneel, stand, and embrace our hearts are formed into a people whose aim is Jesus.
Enjoy this conversation about corporate worship, and why it is so fundamental to the life of a generous steward!
