Worship: Matrix and Human Experience – Why liturgy and the Word matter more than God as an object of worship with Rev. Dr. Leslie King*
"It's the question that drives us, Neo. It's the question that brought you here. You know the question, just as I did" – Trinity (The Matrix)
Ryan and Janel sit down and chat with Leslie as she speaks of caution when it comes to worship. We'll walk through several suppositions that integrative worship is cautious about one at a time, parse out essential traditional elements Rev. King carries forward when preparing worship services, and look at current longings or emerging understandings that she is wrestling with in her faith tradition and community.

*Rev. Dr. Leslie King began her service to First Presbyterian Church of Waco in 2012. She received her BA from Kansas University (’91) and her Masters of Divinity from McCormick Presbyterian Theological Seminary in Chicago (‘94). In 2010 she completed her Doctor of Ministry at Saint Paul School of Theology in Kansas City Missouri with an emphasis in Spirituality and Organizational Change.
Since September 2020, she is a yoga instructor (RYT 200) with Spirit Bear Yoga and (RYT 500) with My Vinaysa Practice. She's a member of Yoga Alliance. She enjoys leading yoga flows for the youth and adults of the church. Her particular interest is in Yin and Restorative yoga as it relates to spiritual well-being. Piano competency is slowly emerging, and music is a source of a lot of joy. She has been married to DJ King since November of 1996 and together they enjoy watching their three young adult children, Cody, Katie and Claire make their way in the world. With a menagerie of stray animals, the Kings are glad to call Waco “home”.
