Worship – Healing for the Nations
Worship leaders sometimes overlook the power of Biblical worship to evangelize and teach theology and doctrine. The key is balanced and Biblical oriented worship. Let me put this practically: If all my songs have "I's" and "me's", chances are some aspects of Christ's Biblical character are concealed... like His judgment and sovereignty. Similarly, my worship set can obscure Christ's character if I don't include love songs to God. Balance and moderation are necessary for worship that evangelizes, teaches and draws all to Christ.
Rev 22:2 talks about the leaves of the tree of life bringing healing to the nations. In the midst of political and church conflict, school shootings, increasing nuclear weaponry, drought, genocide, economic failures; the news that iterates the brokenness of the world, worship might be God's salve. Entering God's presence through the Biblical revelation and exaltation of Jesus is God's way to heal the nations and might be the only peaceful reprieve for the members of our congregations. Let's heal intolerance, hatred, conflict and violence; let's lift Him higher!
Used by churches all over the world to help teach worship, the Experiencing Worship study can help your worship team too.
Your team will learn why we worship and gain a better understanding of how to worship.
