Are you passive or active–in your worship, in your response to life?
So much Protestant worship is performance-oriented today. Singers perform, speakers perform. It’s like being a live TV audience or something. People sit passively, take it in and leave. Then during the week life happens to them. And then another Sunday and start over again.
Then there are people who are actively engaging with the service even if they are not one of the performers. Their mind and soul are tuned to the message and to God. And during the week, they actively seek out God in their daily lives and watch for opportunities to serve according to Jesus’ example.
Active or passive? It’s your choice.
