Liturgy :: 1/4/26 :: Billy Waters

Welcome to Wellspring Church!

In this message, Pastor Billy Waters kicks off our new sermon series, Liturgy, by inviting us to slow down and ask an important question: Why do we worship the way we do? Rather than treating our Sunday service as a collection of habits or preferences, this sermon helps us see liturgy as a formative gift—one that shapes us over time into people who love God rightly.

Pastor Billy shares both Scripture and personal story to show that liturgy isn’t about being rigid or old-fashioned. It’s about being re-formed, week after week, by practices that root us in God’s story, train our hearts toward worship, and keep us anchored in His presence.

📖 Key Themes in This Message:

🔹 What “liturgy” really means and why every church has one

🔹 How repeated practices shape our loves and our faithfulness

🔹 Why worship is something we are formed into, not something we consume

🔹 Seeing our service as a faithful response to God’s gracious work

This opening message sets the foundation for the series by reminding us that we don’t just gather to feel inspired—we gather to be formed. In prayer, Scripture, confession, and communion, God is steadily shaping us into people who know how to remain with Him.
