Dr. Derek Schuurman discussesÌý forÌýGod & Nature Magazine:Ìý“Although there are certain constants in Christian worship, such as the preaching of the word and administering the sacraments, worship also reflects the traditions and context in which people live.

Technology, as part of culture, has also shaped the church in significant ways.”
