OUR DEFINITION OF WORSHIP:

Worship is the specific act of religious praise, honor and devotion directed to God. Worship services often involve a sermon, prayer, scripture, music and giving. To fulfill the Kingdom Vision, worship services need to fulfill three criteria:

  • Be pleasing to God
  • Nourish, provide Christian growth, strengthen faith, inspire and be uplifting to the participants and challenge their witness
  • Match the abilities and styles of the church staff and leadership


THE FUTURE OF WORSHIP:

Worship and music can stretch our souls to new dimensions - with moments of surprise and unpredictability, with experiences full of variety and vigor, with worship offered solely for the love of God, and with reliance on God's Word to link our historic faith with practical challenges. Our members have pointed to these growing edges for those precious times when we gather to meet with God. Good worship and music have whet our spiritual appetites for more depth and breadth, for matching solid content with worshiper's needs, for those moments when we meet God in spirit and truth.
