Liturgy of the Word

Sermon Podcast for Cornerstone Community Church in Galax, Virginia

Today, we start a new series as we seek to gain a better understanding of worship. Worship is more than just singing on Sunday mornings, and the way we worship forms us and shapes us. If we want to be more like Jesus, we need to understand not only why we worship, but how we worship.

Today, we explore a term that many of you may not be familiar with. Liturgies are the things we do over and over that form us into a certain type of person. Why do we have preaching in church? And how does singing form us into the type of people that live like Jesus? Today, we find the answers as we explore what the Bible teaches about the public reading and study of God’s Word.
