Worship, Grow & Serve

The Church we’ve known from the past is dying, but the Church itself will never die. As time progresses, what should the Church look like in today’s contemporary culture, in light of secularism and technology? We kick off our series, Ekklesia, today with a great word from our senior pastor, Bill Clark. Worship, Grow & Serve Ekklesia | Week 1 August 6, 2017 | Bill Clark The church many of us grew up in has changed. Acts 1:6-8 (NIV) So when they met together, they asked him, “Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?” He said to them: “It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Acts 2:42 (NIV) They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Worship Together He is the audience of one. Just prompters You aren’t spectators, you are the actors Acts 2:46-47 (NIV) They continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.
