"The entire reason for our worship is that God deserves it. The churches’ worship provides opportunities for us to enjoy God’s presence in corporate ways that take us out of time and into the eternal purposes of God’s kingdom. As a result, we shall be changed—but not because of anything we do. God, on whom we are centered and to whom we submit, will transform us by his Revelation of himself.”

A beautiful picture, I've been pondering similar thoughts for a while now. Through worship, especially corporate worship, heaven and earth become one, the presence of God is with us, even within us as we worship Him.
We experienced this recently at Serra's Grandpa's church in Sabina, Ohio where he dedicated Jude to the Lord. I was not expecting it.
