Meaningful for God or for a bunch of 20-somethings being entertained?</i> Good question -- and in many other churches I think the answer might be the latter. But in this case -- well, I've known this guy for a long, long time and he really is a good worship leader. One of the best kind; I really believe that his motivation for leading musical worship is not egotistical or self-aggrandizing. He's one of those worship leaders who does such a good job his persona is kind of null onstage. Not that he doesn't have a personality or a style, but it's just so humble (but not fake-humble) and acquiescent. Yeah, acquiescent: that's the word to describe him. Anyway, if I thought he was just asking to figure out what would entertain us, I would never even consider going. What does meaningful worship mean though? Meaningful for God or for a bunch of 20-somethings being entertained?
