The Perfect Worship Service
The perfect church service would be the one we were almost unaware of; our attention would have been on God. But every novelty prevents this. It fixes our attention on the service itself, and thinking about worship is a different thing than worshipping ... 'Tis mad idolatry that makes the service greater than the god.
- C.S. Lewis

There was a sweet time, not so long ago, when we gave ourselves permission to stop and smell the daisies. When we would pause at daybreak and bathe in the cleansing sound of nature's "dawn chorus." When morning cried out to humanity, join heaven's opening symphony. Worship in its purest form. -by Lois Macdonald
