Thought for Jan 14, 1998 : Worship Quote Of The Week

Today's WORSHIP QUOTE is another attempt to define Christian worship, thistime from the pen of Don Hustad.

A DEFINITION OF WORSHIP
"Worship is the expression of the Christian believer's relationship with God.However that relationship is very complex, since God is at one and the sametime our Creator, Redeemer (through Jesus Christ), Sustainer, Indweller (bythe Holy Spirit), Friend, and Judge. It helps to remember that we approachGod individually as a created one, a redeemed one, a sustained one, anindwelt one, a befriended one, and a judged one."

-Don Hustad, in JUBILATE II: CHURCH MUSIC IN WORSHIP AND RENEWAL, Chapter 5,"The Nature of Christian Worship in Relation to Its Musical Expression," HopePublishing Co., 1993.

Have a great week,
Chip Stam
