C.S. Lewis once said, "We only learn to behave ourselves in the presence of God." Worship is a great attention-getter. We know, in the backs of our minds, that we are always in the presence of God, but when we walk into church on Sunday there's something different going on. The concept is forced to the forefront. Believers are changed, somehow. They want to hear. They want to be quiet. They want to learn. They want to be lifted into God's presence and exult in His glory.
Worship, as it turns out, is a life practice for Christians. I've heard it said at Christmas time, "Why can't every day be Christmas?" Why can't every day be Sunday and every minute of our walk be done in the presence of God with an eye to His glory? I think it's a worthy aim.

That's what R.C. Sproul was talking about when he said he liked the old Catholic Cathedrals and wished Christians would use them.
