What’s the Point?
Going to worship this weekend?
Good, but be aware —
These people draw near to me with their lips,
but their hearts are far from me.
— Isaiah 29:13
Because of what we’re in the middle of as a nation, is something special going on in worship?
Again, good, but be aware —
I hate your festivals and
I take no delight in your assemblies.
Take away from me the noise of your songs.
— Amos 5:20
So what does God want from us beyond, or even instead of, a carefully crafted but painfully self-absorbed religious show?
Let justice roll down like waters,
righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.
— Amos 5:21
