Vertical Habits
Vertical Habits is a program developed by the Calvin Institute of Christian Worship for helping new and lifelong worshipers engage more deeply in worship. Just as words like "I love you," "sorry," and "thank you" build up our relationships over time, the same words in worship help shape our relationship with God.
