Chapter 9 "In Jesus Christ"

In this chapter (chapter 9) of Bob Kauflin’s Worship Matters he says that “we would no longer be limited to physical structures” to meet with God. He said that we should worship God in spirit and in truth by means of Christ. Kauflin also says that Jesus is our meditator, and that we should magnify by not only worshiping Jesus as God, but we should draw attention to his specific work. 


I really liked when Kauflin wrote that glorifying God means glorifying his cross. I also think that worship itself cannot bring us into God’s presence, only Jesus can do so. I really liked how Kauflin emphasized that the quality of our worship does not determine our access to God. God loves us no matter how we preform, or sound.

He says that one of the bases of the church is how worship music dominates it's structure and thinking and that its hard to imagine a church without worship time. Later on in the chapter, he says that the term "worship leader" can often be misunderstood. For example, it can make us think that we have to have worship leaders, or that  worship is just singing. He ends with saying that worship leaders have the ability to impact and teach God's people. I think that being a worship leader is a great privilege because it gives us the opportunity to encourage others and help them give glory to him. Sometimes, we can take it for granted, and forget who we are really doing it for. I like how Kauflin explained that the term "worship leader" can be misunderstood because I had never thought of that before...
