Thoughts on Worship

One of the great dividers in the church today is worship style. The division is so great that a recent book on the subject was titled “Worship Wars”. People often have strong emotions about the style of worship they prefer and it has become a very sensitive issue in many churches.
Reed City UMC is the first church I have served that offers two styles of worship. Personally I enjoy both services. For most of my ministry I have worked with traditional services but in my last appointment we had what I would call a “blended traditional” service. It may sound strange to some but I am equally committed to both styles of worship here at Reed City UMC.
