I've heard people say that too, but a few weeks ago we (meaning our 
Pastors) had a friend who is a worship leader at another church here in 
town come and teach on worship (specifically prophetic worship). He 
returned the following Sunday and led/taught worship. We spent 2 hours 
singing and worshipping. No one was bored or complaining. Why? Because 
God was there and because we understood the importance of what was 
happening. Have you or your pastor taught on worship? With out proper 
understanding people do not realize the importance of worship, so they do 
not want to spend time on it. Does God inhabit your worship, or is it 
merely a time of singing songs. Our times of worship often lead into 
times of prayer ministry and prophetic words for people (This is what we 
do besides sing or read scripture).
