Prepare your heart for our Sunday Morning Gathering by looking through these suggestions that will assist you in making the most of our time together.

You will find tangible suggestions for putting scripture to action in your personal life and in our corporate body, links to the songs we will sing, and lyrics for you to prepare for our corporate singing.

Please see the Preparing for the Sermon post for suggestions in thinking more critically through the passage, meditating more intently on the text, and prayerfully seeking wisdom to deepen your understanding of the passage to be preached this Sunday.

Intentionally Act

Meditate on Colossians 3:16 and Ephesians 5:19.
How would you describe your singing?
Is your answer to the above question "me-centered" or "God-centered?" What thoughts, beliefs, motivations undergird the description of your singing?
How can you better prepare your heart for singing with the body? Might there be ways to review the lyrics ahead of time, contemplate which members of the body might especially need these truths, and pray for them?
Does your singing engage with your heart's affections? What do your affections displayed in your singing reveal about your heart condition?
How might Colossians 3:16 and Ephesians 5:19 impact the way you choose and enjoy the songs you use for worshipful singing?
Click the links below to find the lyrics and recordings of the songs planned for our gathering this Sunday; practice the songs, study the lyrics and sing together.
Pray for those leading our corporate gathering this week and for the Holy Spirit’s work as the Word of God is further explained and applied: Colten Honigman: music; Dalton Vansell: elder prayer & scripture reading; Bret Capranica: teaching.
