Worship defined:
God loves us. Plain and simple. Without condition. As we come to
understand this amazing love from an infinite, holy God, we are moved
to love Him back. The Bible defines our expressed love to God and our
response to His greatness as worship. Thus every aspect of our lives
that honors God in response to what He has done for us becomes worship
directed to Him.
On Sunday mornings we set aside a block
of time to worship God through music. We sing with our voices, we play
instruments, we clap our hands, we shout to the Lord, and we may even
dance in His presence. We believe that God wants us to be free as take
time to express our worship to Him through song and music.
The worship ministry of MCF exists so people can know and experience
the touch and reality of a powerful God. As we become more aware of His
presence, He awakens our hearts and causes us to desire and pursue
knowing Him more. We worship God because He is holy and because He
commands that we worship Him alone. We know that worship is more than a
music filled time slot Sunday mornings, it's a life that gives glory to
God in every aspect. We use music to present God and encourage each of
us to respond to who He is.
We know that it is the Holy Spirit that will bring people into a place
of worship; a place where our minds and hearts are focused on God and
His glory. As we sing and praise God, responding to who He is, we find
that our hearts are changed as we encounter the presence of a living
God. We desire to experience God in fresh, life changing ways through
music and to encourage all of us to continue developing a life that
worships God.
