Thank you for this insightful article. There was a lot of good information here. However, I must say I disagree with the statement that a Christian from 1008 would not be able to understand a worship service in the context of 2008. That christian would absolutely be able to understand worship in churches of today that hold to certain forms of liturgy and do not believe that they need to reinvent themselves every year. If you are referencing The Narcisim that has over taken many of the churches today and has changed worship to be about what I like and what I want rather then what God wants/likes then you are right he would not be able to understand worship But if you are talking about churches that use that ancient liturgies then it would be completely familiar to a christian from 1008 irregardless of technology of musical intruments used. Documentation exists that shows that flow and style of the liturgy has by largely unchanged for the past 2000 years.
