The Gospel begs questions … For instance: The idea of worshipping God is troublesome for me, since I am disinclined to grovel. Is that what ‘worship’ is, though? I don’t think so, but I need to make sense of it. In Old English, worship is worthiness, dignity, honour or renown. So … worshipping God is saying the Creator is worthy of honour, even love. Or, put another way … worshipping God is enhancing God’s reputation in the world instead of bringing dishonour to God. Sounds right to me … just please be gentle with me when I slip up!
