This week Dan Kreider challenges us to reconsider the supremacy of corporate worship over our private devotional lives. Drawing from David Clarkson's Puritan classic 'Prizing Public Worship,' we're confronted with a radical premise: God is more glorified, more present, and more powerfully at work when His people gather together. This isn't to diminish private prayer or personal Bible reading, but to elevate our understanding of what happens when the body of Christ assembles. The angels and saints in heaven worship corporately for eternity, and our Sunday gatherings are rehearsals for that eternal reality. But here's the convicting question: do we treat corporate worship as optional, easily displaced by minor inconveniences like bad weather or busy schedules? Are we settling for the leaves and flourishes of emotional experience rather than seeking the deep fruit of humility, spiritual hunger, and tender hearts? This exploration invites us to examine whether we're truly prepared—heart, mind, conscience, and body—to meet with God when we gather, or if we're merely going through the motions with only our physical presence engaged.
