Worship
“Say cheese”
When was the last time you took a “selfie?” Here are some “selfie” statistics: I am someone who enjoys a picture much more when someone I know is in the picture. I want to see what they are doing, not necessarily where they are. In a meeting just today, one of our staff members mentioned their daughter noticed how many “worship” songs we sing are about us and what God will do for us. That sounds somewhat like a musical How COVID has affected us
Worship
Hey there, fellow worshippers! As we go head-first through another busy week, I’ve been thinking a lot about what it truly means to worship. We gather on Sundays, lift our voices, and offer our prayers – and that’s beautiful! But what if worship wasn’t just something we do on Sunday mornings? What if it was a way we live every single day? The Bible tells us in Romans 12:1, “Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, How COVID has affected us
The Heart of Worship
1 Samuel 16:7b: “…The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” Sometimes, I think we can get caught up in the how of worship – the songs, the prayers, the rituals. But what really matters, at the heart of it, is the why. You know, the Bible talks about worshiping in spirit and in truth (John 4:24). That’s not just about feeling emotional or getting How COVID has affected us
David: A Man of Praise
Sometimes it can be difficult or uncomfortable to praise God with all we have. Sometimes we don’t know how to approach His throne, other times we don’t know what to do once we get there. I like to look at the life of King David and how he exalts the King of Kings. David, renowned for his courage and kingship, was equally celebrated for his deep and abiding faith in God. Throughout his life, David consistently turned to the Lord in praise and thanksgiving, recognizing How COVID has affected us
God Sighting
It’s VBS week! My favorite week of the year! Sara and her amazing team have spent nearly a year praying, planning, preparing, and praying some more – all to reach the children of our community in a real and impactful way. Each year the kids learn about “God Sightings” (those little moments in life where you can see His light shine through), and worship this morning was mine. I have the pleasure of being a “fly on the wall” in How COVID has affected us
Shout for Joy
Shout for Joy: LOUD WORSHIP & OPEN HEARTS (PSALM 100:1) Have you ever felt a surge of joy so powerful it demanded expression? Maybe a victory, a breakthrough, or simply the overwhelming love of God. The Bible is full of examples of this kind of uninhibited praise, a worship that isn’t afraid to get loud! In Psalm 100:1, we are called to “Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth!” This isn’t a quiet, reserved kind of joy. It’s a How COVID has affected us
Death was Arrested
This year I am challenging myself to get to know the songs we sing on a little deeper level. I love the way music can help us approach the throne of God, each of us in a different way. As I was listening through some of Sunday’s set list I came across a YouTube video that talked about the writing of Death was Arrested. The song is full of Biblical truths, so relating to the content has not been a How COVID has affected us
Emotionally Connecting with God in Worship
Music has a remarkable way of stirring our emotions and transcending language barriers. In the realm of worship, music becomes a powerful medium to connect with God on a deep and emotional level. In this article, we will explore the biblical perspective on emotionally connecting with God through musical worship. We are called to be active participants in worship by offering our hearts fully to Him. The Emotional Power of Music The Bible acknowledges the profound impact of music on our How COVID has affected us
Youth Sunday
The school year has started and fall is here; the end of October is rapidly approaching and we all know what that means…Halloween! Whether you cringe and hide in your basement, or deck your halls with decorations and lights as if it were Christmas time, it’s undeniable that Halloween is a big deal in our culture! I could talk about carving jack-o’-lanterns and how the Holy Spirit is like the candle inside. We are dark and dreary without Him, and when He How COVID has affected us
