The Challenge of Worship and Evangelism

In the worship of our churches today there is a popular movement of moving toward deeper levels of cultural relevancy. Music, styles and preaching formats have changed, along with the design of our environment, landscapes and architecture. Over time, we as a people have also changed in our forms of relativity, communication and education. Our approach and purpose for worship has also shifted. However, what has not changed is God’s Word and what He says about worship. What has changed is character and makeup of our complex world. Maintaining an accurate Biblical model of worship is something that seems to be in competition with style and format issues of worship services.

Do you find this to be true in your ministry surroundings? How do you make the attempt in preserving Biblical worship while reaching today's people?
