STAY IN LOVE WITH GOD: Worship

Out of Control and Anxious
We like to be in control of our lives because we feel that being in control will protect the things that are most important to us. When we lose control of a situation we often get anxious. We should not get anxious when a situation is out of our hands because it is still in God's hands. When we worry it is because we have stopped trusting that God will provide for us. The Bible teaches us that we should cast our anxieties on God because He cares for us as a loving Father and He has promised to provide for our needs.

God's Love for His People
As Paul challenges husbands about loving their wives, he bases that challenge in the incomparable love that God has for His people, a love seen most clearly in the sacrifice of Jesus Christ for the church. It is this picture that challenges not only husbands, but all of us with the question, "Do I love what God loves? Do I love the church?"

A Reformed-Charismatic Approach to Worship
Worship is first drawing near to God through the blood of Christ, something we should not take for granted, since before Christ's victory over sin very few people had the privilege of drawing near to God. In our worship, we are to commune with God through the means of grace, such as preaching, God's word, baptism, the Lord's supper. But we are also to encounter and experience God through the work of the Holy Spirit as expressed through the gifts of the spirit -- God is truly near to his people, and is present in corporate worship in a unique way.

A Faithful Witness for Jesus Christ
What does it mean to be a faithful witness? There were two witnesses in the book of revelation that faithfully preached God's messages. They were killed for their faith, but death was not the end for them or for all of those who are in Christ. Are we a faithful witness for Christ?

Discipleship in Community (Jeff Lawrence & Dianne Miller)
Is it possible to follow Jesus alone? Well, Jesus began his work by inviting a small group of seemingly unimpressive men to become his disciples. Over three years, Jesus' character was shaped in them, Jesus' beliefs were refined in them, Jesus' mission was instilled in them, and Jesus' heart was nurtured in them. This vision for "discipleship in community" has rippled throughout centuries and continents, taking many different forms. What is undeniable, however, is that you can not fully follow Jesus on your own. The invitation to follow Jesus is an invitation to become a disciple as a part of a community of people who are learning to follow Jesus together. Do you have a small group of people that you connected to as a Christ-follower?

Essentials for Maximized Living
As we continue our series on the Holy Spirit we talk about living by the Spirit found in Galations 5:16-23. The more wholeheartedly we pursue God the more fully we experience the "Fruit of the Spirit." Galations 5:22 tells us that the fruits of the spirit are love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control. Living by the Spirit = Pursuing God wholeheartedly = Submitting to God's ways.
