We are called to worship God in spirit and in truth. I think that means we need to find what it is that allows us to fully focus on God, be it music, prayer, scripture. For some reason we tend to have trouble completely letting ourselves go and fully worshiping God. I think part of the problem lies in the way we perceive a church service. The way most churches are laid out causes us to view those in the front on stage as performers and the congregation as the audience. This couldn't be farther from the truth. There is an audience but we aren't it. The audience consists of a sole being, God. Every person has an audience of One. The musicians, preachers, and congregation are all performing solely for Him. We may be joined in corporate worship, but each person has the full attention of an audience of One. Find out what it is that allows you to focus on the Almighty and forget about those around you and play to your audience of One.
I came across this video a while ago and it speaks to some of the problems people have with worship. It is definitely done in fun but also contains a lot of truth. I also have to say that the seed that this grew out of was planted by my Pastor, John Pinson.
