Corporate worship happens regularly. When Jesus rose from the dead, Christians began to gather on the first day of the week and so, two thousand years later, we continue to do this, every seventh day. Familiarity all too often breeds contempt and we can begin to allow worship to become mundane, or to morph into something that is more about us and our needs than it is about God and his glory. Hebrews 12:28–29 reminds us of some truths about the God that we are gathering to worship, and helps to refocus our hearts and minds, grateful for the opportunity we have each week to worship together. We ask three questions of this text:

1. What is worship (v. 28)?

2. Who do we worship (v. 29a)?

3. How should we worship (v. 29b)?
