Showing the face of Jesus in our worship

Here's a worthy goal to strive for in our weekly worship service:
... our worship, no different than the rest of our lives, pleases God when we represent his Son through it. This is more than a matter of choosing music that is properly respectful or adequately relevant. Our worship should show the face of Jesus to those who have gathered and to those who need to gather to worship him. They see him when they understand his gospel - making our task to represent that gospel in all we do.
Quoted from Bryan Chapell, "Re-presenting" Christ's Story, in Christ-Centered Worship (Baker Academic).
