Well I cannot see a problem with it, but...hey you're the theologian! I
think it eminently better than those congregations that I have been in where
they hardly seem to care if the Scriptures are read or a pastoral prayer is
prayed at all. As long as they sing innumerable, inane and repetitive
choruses, no one seems to care what they do.

So if our church adopted that practice I would think it a step in the right
direction!

FWIW

God bless,
