Regular worship gatherings display Christ and our unity as we see the entire local church in one place. We are reminded that there are many of us with the same theology, practice, mission, and elders. While gathered, we have a picture of our mutual submission to one another and our collective belief in the gospel. Through robust gospel liturgies we are being formed in Christ together by rehearing again the essential truths of the gospel. Doing this together demonstrates our unity even as it nurtures our unity. Worship gatherings shape our common language, symbols, story, theology, practices (enacted theology), and mission. For these reasons and more, worship gatherings are essential for exalting Christ and equipping the saints.
