    What determines the structure and flow of your worship service? What would be different if you and your people saw worship as a reorientation to God's story?  In this episode, I'll share the natural progression of worship that guides my planning and leading. I have found that when I've built a service around this flow, it lifts an unnecessary burden of production off of the worship team. Imagine how formative worship services could be if your people began to recognize how this flow helps them find themselves in God's grand story! In a future episode, we'll unpack how sacraments fit in this progression.Corporate worship......is God-centered...is Gospel-centered...reestablishes our identity as God's family...is Word-centered...empowers us for Mission www.tomdykstra.com
