Worship is a Verb
This last Sunday we learned from Jesus that true worshipers worship the Father in spirit and truth. Worship is not about being in the right place, but it is about exalting the right Person in the right way. A.W. Tozer said, “Go to church once a week and nobody pays attention. Worship God seven days a week and you become strange!” That is no doubt true, but I’d like to alter that quote a bit: “Go to church once a week and nobody pays attention. Worship God seven days a week and you will look like a true worshiper!”
Readiness For Sunday Worship
Have you ever taken the time to think about your readiness when gathering together with God’s people in worship on Sunday?
When I was growing up, after dinner every Saturday night, my parents had us lay out our clothes for Sunday, bathe or shower, and go to bed a bit earlier so we would be ready and energized Sunday morning when we climbed into our station wagon (remember those?) and drove to church. My point is we had a plan for readiness on Sunday because it was an important day for our family. We would get our mind, body, and spirit ready to give our best to the Lord and with His people (and I might add, we were never late).
A Special Message from our Leadership Team
A Special Message from our Leadership TeamWe are very excited to regather in person throughout our church this week after a brief COVID-related interruption to our normal ministry gatherings. In light of the Governor’s new temporary measures, we are pleased to continue meeting in person as we did before on Sundays and throughout our entire ministry (none of the new measures change any of our previous in-person meetings whether on campus or in homes).
Why Singing is Essential to Worship
God created us to sing and enjoy the message, rhythm, and emotion of music. When it comes to God’s people, we are specially designed to sing and to sing our praises to God together. Psalm 147:1 says: “Praise the Lord! For it is good to sing praises to our God; For it is pleasant and praise is becoming.” Here’s WHY it’s so vital.
