Worship Ministry Do you ever find yourself wondering what it really means to “worship” God? Have you ever been confused about what genuine worship consists of, or about why worshiping God is so important? Here at Community Church we believe that worship is a vital and integral part of experiencing a healthy and powerful relationship with God. We worship God together because we are God’s people, chosen specifically by Him to spread His fame and share of His saving presence and power in our lives. Worshiping God together as a church is an extension of what each of us are created to do on a daily and ongoing basis in our personal lives. Worship is not a “once-a-week, optional activity” for those of us who may be more naturally drawn to expressions of faith through art and creativity. Instead, worshiping God is the aim of all we do, say, and think as individuals and as a church. It is our privilege and honor to pour out our life’s efforts and events which culminate in an offering of praise and worship to Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. The Bible explains much more than we could begin to share here about living lives of worship for God. If you would like to take a deeper look about what true worship is all about, here are a few Bible passages to get you started: 1 Peter 2:9 (NIV): “But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.” Hebrews 13:15-16 (NIV): “Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise-the fruit of lips that confess his name. And do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.” Colossians 3:16-17 (NIV): “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.” Romans 12:1-2 (NIV): “Therefore, I urge you, brothers, 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. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is- His good, pleasing, and perfect will. Opportunities to be involved in the Worship Ministries of Community Church are wide and varied.
