  • God Has Gifted the Church with the Powerful Medium of Music. Col 3:16
    God has gifted the Church with the powerful medium of music. Col 3:16-17 tells us: “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.” Paul speaks of “psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs.” Most people, when they arrive at these passages get caught up in trying to discern the difference between these three categories. “What is the difference between a psalm and a hymn?” they ask. “And can modern praise choruses be considered spiritual songs?” Incidentally, from there the inquiry degrades even further with people debating the differences between hymns and praise choruses. Of course, some may have heard the story of the old farmer who went to the city one weekend and attended one of the larger churches. Upon his arrival home, his wife asked him how the church service went. “Well,” said the farmer, “It was good, but they did something different. They sang praise choruses instead of hymns.” “Praise choruses,” said his wife, “What are those?” “Oh, they’re okay,” responded the farmer. “They’re sort of like hymns, only different.” “Well, what’s the difference?” asked his wife. The farmer said, “It’s like this: If I said to you, “Myrtle, my beloved. Hast thou seen the cows in the ripened and bounteous corn?” that would be a hymn.

  • 2019 Theme Resources
    2019 THEME RESOURCES Holy Today! I am ready to be approached by those who do not study me, ready to be found by those who do not seek me. I say, “I am here, I am here” to people who do not even invoke my names. Isaiah 65.1 I am here! I am here! If you have ever had a beach holiday it is surprising just how loud the sound of the waves crashing on the shore can be. By day, the sound of the waves can almost be missed amidst the other sounds, dazzling colours and energetic movement of beachgoers, bright flags, ball games, cawing seagulls or the glare of the dancing sun. Yet sitting on the sand at that magical time of twilight, the sound of the crashing waves begins to catch greater attention. As the fine mist of night begins to descend the volume seems to amplify. By nightfall, the sound can be heard with such intensity as to even keep a light sleeper awake. However, there is no volume control on the sound of the waves. It seems that we are simply more attuned or aware of its sound at some particular moments than at other times. We know the same can be true in our experience of God. Like the waves, there is no volume control that we can, or need to, turn up to hear or ‘experience the presence of God’. Like the sound of the crashing waves that are always there, so too God is always present to us - it’s just that sometimes we are more attuned or aware.

  • Ash Wednesday
    CHRISTIAN EDUCATION/GRADUATION SUNDAY MUSIC & WORSHIP RESOURCES Sunday, May 20, 2012 Michelle Riley Jones, Lectionary Team Liturgist Worship Planning Notes The aim of a Christian and even secular education is to create citizens who are well-rounded and serve the world in positive ways. Christian education undergirds all other ministries of a church and requires a lifelong commitment to study. Psalm 1, though it references the Law as that which leads to moral and lifelong stability and prosperity, extends to the entire Bible, and emphasizes that Christians should delight in lifelong study of the Bible. “Blessed is the one . whose delight is in the law of the LORD and who meditates on his law day and night” (Psalm 1:1-2). This service celebrates all those who have pursued various types of education, i.e., Bible classes, high school, college, graduate school, small group study, etc., and all those involved in teaching. Suggestions for worship (a) For a truly out-of-the-box approach, hire mime artists to pose as living statues in your service. If you can hire several, a goal could be to show learning from youth through adulthood. You can utilize them during the portion of service where you recognize your graduates and educators, or have them posed during the entire service (there are natural breaks in the service where the artists can rest and/or switch 1 out). You could also have them posted in your foyer as your congregation and guests arrive (they should be relieved once the service begins). Some suggested poses are: Mother reading Bible to child sitting at her knee Teacher with pupil Person reading science, history, math, etc., book Graduate (with cap, gown, and honors tassels) Small study group or two people studying together (as they would in Sunday School, Sabbath School, or Bible Study).
