What exactly happened the night that Jesus of Nazareth was born? Today, we will answer that very question by looking at the incarnation – God becoming human.
Devoted Prayer
Core Value #7 – Devoted Prayer – As New Testament believers, we believe that prayer actually makes a difference in the world because we are praying to a God who is involved in the affairs of this world. But that is only the first point of four that we will learn about today.
Intentional Discipleship
Core Value #6: Intentional Discipleship. Discipleship is growth toward Christlikeness, but not only are we committed to a process of growth to make us like our Master, but we don’t do it in isolation. We are like the co-dependent plants in the companion planting garden. And that growth has certain characteristics, which we will talk about today.
Engaging Worship
Core Values #5 – Engaging Worship – If you think that worship is simply Sunday morning singing, then today should broaden your thinking to encompass all that scripture reveals worship to be. If we limit ourselves to singing only, then we will miss out on so much of the depth and richness that worship brings to us and the honor it brings to God.
