Corporate Worship: Reading and Preaching the Word

ABOUT THE MESSAGE: Throughout history, God’s people have regularly gathered to hear the Word of God and to respond to the Word of God. Faithfully, God works through His Word and the power of the Holy Spirit to draw people to salvation in Christ, to build the church, and to shape believers more and more into the image of Christ. In this lesson, Rev. Helopoulos helps us see that from the days of the first Apostles, Christian ministry has been centered on the public reading of Scripture and preaching from Scripture.

ABOUT THE SERIES: One of the most fundamental questions that we can ask is “Why are we here?” God created us with a purpose—to worship Him. In Created for Worship, Jason Helopou- los helps us to refocus on our true calling as worshipers. In Christ, we have been re-created to worship God in spirit and truth, and part of what this means is knowing what worship is all about. Worship is what we were created for and worship is what we are destined for, that we will one day worship God in His presence for all eternity.
