An article in CT discusses briefly the attraction liturgy has for evangelicals. Here's a quote:
The worship leaders wear medieval robes and guide the congregation through a ritual that is anything but spontaneous; they lead music that is hundreds of years old; they say prayers that are scripted and formal; the homily is based on a 2,000-year-old book; and the high point of the service is taken up with eating the flesh and drinking the blood of a Rabbi executed in Israel when it was under Roman occupation. It doesn't sound relevant.
Read the whole thing here. The article did not discuss why I am attracted to liturgy though.
