A Spring of Joy

[Worship] is on earth, but that place on earth is also part of heaven; it is now, but that time also strains forward to the end; it is in the world of action, but also in the new Jerusalem after the judgment; it recalls the saints, but also wishes to join them; it is our worshiping activity and ministry, but more truly the ministry of Christ, and it only occurs among us as we live in Christ.

– Thomas O’Loughlin
