11. On Privilege in Worship – “How Sweet and Awful is the Place”
In an age where “privilege” is a buzzword, Christians should be the first to celebrate their privilege. Christians are not only redeemed from sin, saved to righteousness, and assured of everlasting life. They are also pleased to be made worshipers of the risen Christ. This privilege is most fully realized in this life when the church gathers to worship. In this episode, Zack and Alex discuss why and how Christians should reclaim a sense of privilege in worship and congregational singing. They also review Isaac Watts’ classic hymn “How Sweet and Awful is the Place.”
