Challies has great notes on three more sessions of WorshipGod06.

In session 4, the following words stood out for me:

"Too often we approach God like the subject of a biography. We read about Him, but do not expect to actually encounter Him. We pray, but don't think He'll talk back. We read His Word, but see it as lifeless facts and information, not a living Word. But the Bible is not the biography of a dead God! Jesus Christ is alive! God's presence and power is not only in Scripture, for He can be personally encountered. Our worship is not only to or for God, but is where we encounter and experience God. The One who allows us to encounter God is God Himself in the Holy Spirit."

Bob Kauflin then spoke of a Desperate Dependence upon God's Spirit, our need for Eager Expectation, and Humble Responsiveness to the gifts. Put all THAT in your pipe and smoke it, Dan Phillips!

Tim does a fantastic job of covering the fifth session, which was a time of very charismatic worship. Tim held his commenters off for being too quick to criticise. The meeting sounds very controlled, orderly, and an interesting example of such a meeting from the more reformed end of the charismatic spectrum.

By the final session, Tim explained he was struggling to keep up — I know that feeling from my own excursion into live-blogging. But he managed to capture the essence of the talk in the following quote:

"What is the essence of heaven? The essence of heaven is to be with God, to see His face, to never have anything between us, to be unimpaired by sin and curse."

Meanwhile David Wilcox is ready to crash having supervised the "nearly 72 hours straight of intense sound, lighting, and video production" that was WorshipGod06. Pop by and say thanks if you were at WG06!
