What is Liturgy?
The word has its roots in the culture of the Greek-Roman Antiquity and describes what in a city's assembly of free men contribute to the common good.
The Apostle Paul has employed this term to describe his ministry, also translated as "service of faith" (Philippians 2:17).
So liturgy is what each member of God's people contributes to the common worship, offering thanksgiving and praise in consonance with the angels (cf. Isaiah 6 and Luke 2:14) and all creation (cf. Psalm 150 and many other places).
