Podcast Highlights:
- “As we consider church health, I believe the health of a church’s worship might be one good vital sign to give us insight to the overall health of the church.” (2:35)
- “I’m seeing so many churches today that perhaps originally divided their worship by worship preference or age divisions — kind of comes together a lot of times. But now we’re seeing over and over churches that see this great value of intergenerational worship where all generations are worshiping together in a very biblical model. And I really think that’s a sign of a healthy church.” (12:01)
- “Intergenerational worship is only possible if our common ground when we come together is being willing to defer each other — deference instead of landing on that preference. And being willing to set aside my preferences because I’m deferring to you.” (15:49)
