Join us this Sunday as Nate will be kicking off a new series on the ‘Basics of the Faith’. We are beginning with the Bible. This Sunday sermon will be from 2 Timothy 3:14-17 on ‘The Bible is God’s Word’. Prepare yourself for worship as you enter the sanctuary Sunday morning
Jesus did not die to sanctify and fill buildings or “atmospheres.” His work on the cross changed everything. He died to cleanse, fill, and empower our human hearts. His work is inside-out, not the previous “outside-in” paradigm of the old covenant. This is the promise of ongoing transformation. We actually enjoy a new experience of the Holy Spirit because of the gospel. Our language and practice can and must reflect the reality of these amazing privileges.

Come, People of the Risen King
Come people of the risen King, who delight to bring Him praise.
Come all, and tune your hearts to sing to the Morning Star of grace.
From the shifting shadows of the earth we will lift our eyes to Him,
Where steady arms of mercy reach to gather children in.
Rejoice, rejoice! Let every tongue rejoice!
One heart, one voice; O, Church of Christ, rejoice!
Come, those whose joy is morning sun, and those weeping through the night.
Come, those who tell of battles won, and those struggling in the fight.
For His perfect love will never change, and His mercies never cease;
But follow us through all our days, with the certain hope of peace.
Rejoice, rejoice! Let every tongue rejoice!
One heart, one voice; O, Church of Christ, rejoice!
Come, young and old from every land, men and women of the faith.
Come, those with full or empty hands, find the riches of His grace.
Over all the world His people sing; Shore to shore we hear them call
The Truth that cries through every age, “Our God is All in All.”
Rejoice, rejoice! Let every tongue rejoice!
One heart, one voice; O, Church of Christ, rejoice!
Rejoice, rejoice! Let every tongue rejoice!
One heart, one voice; O, Church of Christ, rejoice!

We have thought on Your steadfast love, O God, in the midst of Your temple.
-Psalm 48:9
Holy, Holy, Holy
Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!
Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee;
Holy, holy, holy, merciful and mighty!
God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!
Holy, holy, holy! All the saints adore Thee,
Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea;
Cherubim and seraphim falling down before Thee,
Who, wert, and art, and evermore shalt be.
Holy, holy, holy! Though the darkness hide Thee,
Though the eye of sinful man Thy glory may not see;
Only Thou art holy; there is none beside Thee,
Perfect in power, in love, and purity.
Holy, holy, holy! Lord god Almighty!
All Thy works shall praise Thy name, in earth, and sky, and sea;
Holy, holy, holy; merciful and mighty!
God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!
