Why the Liturgy?

Our Savior's follows the order of the Divine Service, known as the “liturgy.” It’s a simple, clear, and ancient way that Christians have worshipped for centuries and centuries. We follow that way because it is one of the best ever found in the church’s history to receive God’s gifts. We could organize things in other ways, but the liturgy keeps us on track: God’s Word and God’s Body and Blood stay at the center – where they belong. Our preferences, interests, and hobbyhorses have little to no room in the liturgy, and that’s all to the good.
