Sermons on Victory In Worship:

Choosing To Worship

Contributed by Andrew Drummond on Mar 27, 2006

We live in a day when people love to worship only when the mood is right, the sun is shining, and everything is okay, but this is not biblical. We need to be a people of worship...no matter how we feel. We need to make a choice...

If I were to ask the question: why do we worship God? What answer would you give? Do we do it because He is good? Do we do it because He has blessed us? Do we do it only when the sun is out and we’re happy? This type of Christian thinking falls apart when things don’t go well. When you are feeling ...read more

Worship The King!

Contributed by Simon Fullylove on Feb 27, 2007

A call to worship the King of all Kings

Introduction We are reading Matthew 1 – the bit that everyone skips over to get to the real stuff in verse 18. This on the face of it is no way to start the New Testament. Genealogy is quite juicy. But it still appears a boring list of names, what is the point? You may have heard the coronation ...read more

Worship Wars

Contributed by Matthew Stoll on Nov 7, 2006

Sermon to handle the increasing division over style of music in worship (contemporary vs. traditional). We sing for God’s benefit and not our own. Yet God continues to inspire us with a new song and styles of worship.

In the last month or so I have heard some interesting comments. I’ve heard, “we don’t sing enough of the old hymns,” or “I don’t like the new music,” and I have also heard “we are singing too many hymns,” or “we sing songs too slow.” Interesting isn’t it? Whenever people are involved there are ...read more

"Spontaneous Worship"

Contributed by Jerry Depoy on Aug 24, 2006

Tradition has it that it was Mary Magdalene in the text. I have ...read more

Contributed by Jake Kircher on Dec 28, 2005

What is worship?

As I have grown up, I have been at a few different churches that have had many different styles of worship. For most of my life I attended a Baptist church, where all of our music was done on the piano and the organ. We always sang hymns.
