Actually, I find the orderliness to be above the norm that I experienced in the Evangelical community. I like it. I was Baptist for over 20 years, but went to many non-denominational churches (some you've seen on TV); I just gotta say, I DIG liturgy. A lot.

FWIW I admire the orderliness in "high church" worship far more than what passes for worship in many evangelical churches.

Myself, as well. One of the factors that brought me here -- a truly reflective, prophetic message, respectfully handled, instead of whatever bug is buzzing the preachers' nose that week. You may have heard about the pastor here in Texas recently that encouraged his married folk to "couple" every day for a week -- I'm not certain what redemptive value there is in that sort of, err, message.

Not likely to see the Father leap over a pew and jab his finger in somebody's face, either (yes, I've seen it).

I don't know who you are or what you did with the real Alex, but just give him back unharmed and no questions will be asked!

And a Merry Christmas, too! ;-)
