While much has been written about liturgy, this is a study of the experience of worship. Liturgy involves a multidimensional language that is both verbal and non-verbal. The qualitative research explored the question: What lived experience makes worship meaningful for persons within the United Church of Canada? Conversations with three women and three men were taped, transcribed and developed into narrative stories. Subsequently the author identified themes within and challenges for worship through analysis and hermeneutic exploration. Relevant worship themes included: hospitality, space, embodiment, and a felt sense of authenticity and awe. Challenges for worship include: the development of hospitable ways for welcoming persons; the involvement of each of the senses through signs and symbols, stories, songs and structure; the importance of worshippers having a felt sense of authenticity with worship leaders; and a need for the church to affirm persons' experiences of awe in nature and daily life.
