Prepare (June 5, 2016)

This blog gives you a glimpse into the upcoming Sunday Gathering. It's an opportunity for you to read through the passage we'll be studying together, pray through some of the liturgy we'll be using, and listen to a selection of the songs we’ll be singing.


The Challenges of Work

SERMON

This week Tom Thrower is going to be taking us through some of the challenges of working in a sinful and broken world.

LITURGY

Confession & Assurance

So often our hearts wander and bow down to idols that we've put in the place of God: money, success, security, comfort. We value these things above God, believing they will bring us true joy and true satisfaction.

The hope of the gospel is that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us, while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son. So we can rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.

MUSIC

  • In Tenderness He Sought Me (Citizens): A wonderful reminder that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
  • How Deep the Father’s Love (Stuart Townend): A reflection on the depth of  God’s love shown to us in the cross of Christ.
