But to each one of us grace has been given as Christ apportioned it.  God different gifts the each member of the body.  When all these roles are working together the body is healthy, growing and vibrant.

Despite all their many differences, God’s people are united together by their common faith and their relationship with Christ

God takes the lost, the broken and the alienated and turns them into a masterpiece.  No matter where you come from or what you’ve been through, God has a place for you.

Commissioned by God: Worship Reveals God.  When God’s people worship Him it strikes a chord in the heart of observers that resonates with the unmistakable truth of God.

Renewed by God: Worship Brings Renewal.  All the other Worship Realities have brought us to this point.  Through worship God is restoring us to our original glory and beauty and function.  

Worship Reality #4:  Worship is formative.  We cannot enter into the presence of God and leave without being changed by the experience. 

Ray McMillan reports on his recent mission trip to Ecuador and upcoming mission trip to India and then shares a message from God’s Word about who God is and who God calls us to be.

Worship Reality #3: Worship is expressionate (a passionate expression).  When we limit our worship to a series of  purely intellectual activities we miss the energy and invigoration that being in the presence of God Almighty brings.

Worship Reality #2 – Worship is Inspired by Awe: Worship is meant to be reverent.  When we gain the proper perspective on who we are in relation to who God is we are unavoidably filled with a sense of awe.

Worship Reality #1: Worship Creates Community.  Although worship does happen on an individual and private level there is something special that happens when people get together to worship God.
