WOWAW 22: “A vocabulary ... that is sufficiently personal and adequately wide-ranging”

This week’s Words Of Wisdom About Worship:

We acquire facility in personal language that is accurately responsive to what we hear God say to us out of his word in Scripture and in Christ in our changing situations and various levels of faith.  We need a vocabulary and syntax that is sufficiently personal and adequately wide-ranging to answer everything that God says from wherever we happen to hear it within every developing stage of our pilgrimage across the entire spectrum of our lives. 

-Eugene Peterson, Working the Angles: The Shape of Pastoral Integrity
