“Rejoice with trembling!” (Psalm 2:11)
Worship is the opportunity for the church—the people of God, the body of Christ, and the fellowship of the Spirit—to meet with her God and magnify the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We meet with God in terms of the covenant that he has established with us whereby he promises to be our God and summons us to be His people.
Our worship is structured by this covenant relationship. God speaks to us in His Word (the call to worship, Scripture readings, the preaching of the Word, and the celebration of the Lord’s Supper), and we respond with hymns of praise, prayer, and offerings.
