OUR WORSHIP

WORSHIP AT THE CENTER

Worship is our response to the revelation of God made known to us most fully through the light and life of Jesus Christ. Enabled and guided by the Holy Spirit, we are able to commune with God each week that we gather together. 

Modeling the Gospel

Each aspect of our weekly services outlines the Gospel from the Creation narrative (Genesis 1-2) to the Great Commission (Matthew 28).
As we walk through each element, we are reminded of our place in the work of God's redemptive plan.

Revelation

Our worship in its entirety is a response to God revealing himself. We cannot initiate worship; it is through God’s revelation of himself that we are able to respond in worship. Through God’s call to worship him we are able to gather as his church.

(Genesis 1, Isaiah 6:1)

ADORATION

Our time of worship is not a standalone event, but a presence in the larger, eternal proclamation of God’s glory. Our services begin by acknowledging and adoring the one who is worthy and has called us into the worship we gather for.

(Psalm 34:3, Isaiah 6:3)

Confession

God's holiness shows our unworthiness to dwell in his presence. Our response to God’s character and presence should be to repent of the sin that separates us from him, knowing he is faithful and just to forgive.

(Isaiah 6:5, James 5:16)

Assurance of Pardon

We know that through Christ our sin is atoned for.
Through his salvation we are able to worship the Son
by the power of the Holy Spirit, magnifying the Father.

(Isaiah 6:6-7)

Proclamation

Worship is not a one-sided conversation, but rather a continuing dialogue. As Christ ministered to people through his word, in worship we receive the Word of God so that it will form and renew our hearts and minds.

Response

The proclamation of God’s Word requires a response.
Our worship service allows us to respond to the
Word that has been proclaimed in order that the
church may grow in her love and obedience to Christ.

Sending

The church’s worship cannot be contained solely within its walls. The final act of our worship service is to send the church to make disciples of all nations. The church’s worship is made whole in her fulfillment of the mission given by Christ. Without the act of mission the church’s worship is incomplete.
