The “Church Life” series in the January issues of The Alabama Baptist was very much in agreement with my church experience in recent years. Both my family and my son’s family were members of churches where the worship services became about attracting and entertaining a certain demographic of the unchurched rather than true inclusive worship.
Two generations of my family were on the way to becoming “dones” until we changed churches recently. Our son is now attending an Episcopal church where his family found authenticity in traditional liturgy and the sacraments. We have joined a nearby Southern Baptist church where there is love, joy and reverence in the worship services.
It was encouraging to learn from the Church Life series that the importance of God-centered worship is becoming more widely recognized.
