Worship as a central act of the Church is a public and regular expression of Christian faith. Thus implications of all parts of its practices powerfully shapes the Christian lives directly or indirectly. From this perspective, it is very important to analyse and evaluate the implications in liturgical setting as well as worship itself since it would also influence upon the spirituality of worshiping individuals in symbolic dimension. This article deals particularly with democratic implications of worship that should be embedded in its structure, contents, linguistic expression and symbolic arrangement of space, and affirms how much important the participation of the congregation is in it. Thus, it encourages more developed democratic ideas in worship practices. The idea of democracy in the Church is not contradictory to her theocratic ideal, but rather is closely related to each other. The Church needs to make every effort to recover and actualize the democratic idea in her worship practices in awareness of its powerful influence upon Christian lives and faith as well as its significance.
