In a recent article on the Alban Institute website, Graham Standish writes:
"The church has to adapt its worship because our culture doesn't recognize the value of worship when done as it was in generations past. Each generation is different in what it resonates with because over time the culture changes. The result is taht worship rooted in previous generations loses its power to connect with each succeeding generation and leads us to address spiritual questions that are no longer being asked, or at least not being asked in a way that can be addressed in forms familiar to today's older generations."

Doesn't the parable of the wineskins teach us that it is the responsibility of each generation to pour the gospel into new wineskins?
