Worship – is it only for the spiritually mature?
Some feel worship services are for only Christians — and for the more spiritual ones at that. So they have “seeker” services for the non-Christian and immature.
Consider these thought-provoking statements from Sally Mogenthaller in Worship Evangelism:
“Why would we want to deny unbelievers access to something that is as potentially life-changing, healing, and beneficial as an experience of true worship? If it is becasue that kind of worship is not happening at our church, we had better admit it and get to work.”
“If, however, the corporate worship in our congregation is an authentic, dynamic, supernatural event, making worship an in-house affair is like locking up the supermarket the day before Thanksgiving! …Worship is the most powerful tool we have for satisfying the hunger of famished, injured souls, for breaking down spiritul strongholds of pride and unbelief, and for ushering in the gift of true joy. How can we refuse it?
“Our whole culture, saved and unsaved, is starving for an extraordinary glimpse of God. Worship is not the only place where that can happen, but it is where one would expect it to happen.” p.84
