John has left a new comment on your post "Typical Church and Change Pastor's Response to Pub...":
I LOVE the Divine Service. I love it because it is The Word. I love that I have it committed to memory because I don't have to concentrate on saying the words, I can concentrate on what the words say.The Word saves. Nothing can be more 'relevant' than that. Neither tradition, nor relevancy, nor style, nor setting saves.

GJ - In the name of relevancy, the Church Shrinkers water down the Word and adulterate it to make the Word appealing. Calvinists and Reformed deny the efficacy of the Word.
