The Trouble with Traditions (Continued)

The One-Hour Service

This has almost become a sacred cow. I read in the Bible that Paul preached past midnight. I don’t think they met at 11:00 p.m. We honor this tradition for the most part, but we need to realize it’s not a matter of scripture.

We do this more as a convenience. Many times we could use more preaching and teaching time as a body. Do we give our visitors a true sense of what the church is all about during a sixty-minute service?

I encourage all of us to leave our watches at home this Sunday and really concentrate on our praise and worship to our Heavenly Father.
