WORSHIPING

"worship" = the act of adoring, praising and ascribing worth to God; offering our service to God

Foremost, we are to be worshipers of God. Our desire is to grow in our love for God and worship Him with all we do and with all we are. We want to see our worship expressed holistically through our day to day living and lifestyle. We desire our worship to be expressed in creativity and in beauty, since God is the ultimate creator.

“Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God - this is your spiritual act of worship." 
   - Romans 12:1

To grow in our WORSHIP:

• we seek to be worshipers wherever we are, creating a culture of worship
• we long to break out of a two-dimensional mode of worship during our gatherings and move into variety of ways that we express our love for God and learn the Scriptures, as people have a diversity of learning styles and temperaments
• we use the arts as a creative expression of worship because we are created in the  image of God, who is the ultimate Creator
• we look to the historical church for inspiration and practice spiritual worship, blending the  ancient with present
• we try to incorporate prayer everywhere in our community, as prayer demonstrates our dependency upon God
• we desperately look for the Holy Spirit’s leading and direction for the church and do not only rely on human methodologies for ministry
• we have developed communities for those interested in art, music, theater and film
