DEEP WITHIN ...
Is there something deep within you
that longs to communicate deeply with the source of your being?
Is it possible for you to connect with the creator? Could
it be that the answer is yes. We believe God is not distant
and cold, but close in proximity, and intimate in relationship;
desiring more to be with us, than we are with him. In the
Sunday morning service we hope you also will encounter God..
Sunday morning church is a celebration of God's goodness.
It is the full human experience coupled with the experience
of God, there can be laughter, excitement, joy, testimony,
a feeling being wanted, even sadness, and we don't shy from
exploring the hard questions. Why, because God is relevant,
true, tangible, and interested in ordinary people.
WHAT ABOUT THE MUSIC?
It can be loud, and why not? It is normal
to go hard out when you are passionate about something. We
call it worship. A band, mostly of youth, leads us in a mixed
contemporary genre of Hillsong music, Parachute music, and
modern anthems. We usually finishing with a rousing hymn.
Our aim is people participation, not performance. Great worship
we believe, opens us up to the revelation of God.
HOW ABOUT THE TEACHING?
God's word is more than ink on paper. John
speaks of Jesus as the word becoming human flesh. We often
say we are Jesus with skin on. Jesus' experience should be
our experience; it is people fleshing out the word of God
on the coal face of human experience. People are resourced
to do this on Sunday morning by teaching that is biblical,
encouraging, challenging, and earthy. Can ordinary people
can become empowered and inspired to become super-ordinary
people, and make a difference to the world in which they live?.
See MP3 list of topics below.
THE KIDS?
Children are big on our radar screen. Children
are the Church of today as much as anyone is. We have teachers
who love being with the kids, and it's fun. Dynamite Bay and
Sparklers children's programmes run during the service. |
