    A sermon from The Purpose Driven Life which talks about our spiritual S.H.A.P.E.

    God wants to use your life. That’s why we want to discover our purpose. There are a lot of shallow secular books out there like the one I saw recently entitled Discovering Your Purpose.

    Worship On Purpose Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 5, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,848 views

    Worship is so much more than singing a song, the style of music, or our even own preferences; it’s about our heart-attitude before God. There are many elements to worship; but they all serve to honor and glorify God and edify others.

    This morning, we’re going to continue our series on the five purposes of the church by looking at worship. In the song “The Heart of Worship,” Matt Redman sings, “I’ll bring You more than a song, for a song in itself is not what You have required. You search much deeper within, through the way ...read more

    This message looks at ministry or service. “Every believer isn’t a pastor, but every believer is called into ministry. God calls all believers to minister to the world and the church. Service in the body isn’t optional for Christians” - Rick Warren

    This morning we’ll be viewing the purpose of “ministry” or “service.” In The Purpose Driven Life, Rick Warren says, “Growing up, you may have thought that being ‘called’ by God was something only missionaries, pastors, nuns, and other ‘full-time’ church workers experienced, but the Bible says ...read more
