Megachurches are Liturgical
Megachurch service. Note vid screens and extensive stage with large band.
This starts my new thing on Evangelical church organization. If you’re not interested in American Evangelicals, you may be lost.
Megachurches are most highly liturgical of any church. Those with televised satellite churches are even more so.
Confused? Thought that megachurches eschewed liturgy for free and loose? Here’s why I say this.
Liturgy is the branding of the church of the middle ages. If you went to another town, you could be assured that the church there would be following the same procedures, same church service organization and the same words. There was really very little that was different. Homilies or sermons may be different but the readings, the songs, the chants, the refrains — all of this was the same.
