A Study of Christian Worship
Of all that we Christians do, perhaps nothing is more important than gathering for worship. Worship is what humans were made for.
Yet why should worship matter so much? And what is it that we do when we gather for worship? In this 11-week series, we’ll explore these questions by studying the essential elements of a Christian worship service. When we better understand the meaning of worship, we'll see how worship informs every aspect of our lives and relationships, most especially with God.
A Study of the Song of Songs
For Christians throughout history, the most beloved and frequently read book of the Bible was, in fact, the Old Testament love poem, the Song of Songs.
Why so? This ancient near eastern poem was central to the spiritual lives of many saints, with one nineteenth-century pastor even suggesting that the measure of a person’s spiritual maturity could be determined by their relationship to this book. What can we learn from the Song of Songs today? Join us for this 7-week study as we read and discuss this, the greatest of all love songs!
