Worship and the Cosmic Drama, continued

instead a recitation and re-enactment of the mighty deeds of God restoring the world to Himself by His own two hands – the incarnate Word and the life-giving Spirit – resulting in a vision of history, of the world and our place in it that is counter to all the visions of the world held by the world. It is the true story of the world, the truth about the meaning of human existence. You don’t prove it with reason or science. You don’t make it real by experience. Worship is not factualizing it or feeling it. It doesn’t need reason. It doesn’t need feeling. Worship just does it. The drama of the world, that is.
