Worship through Music


As the Board of First Baptist Church, these are our beliefs
and aspirations for our Worship through Music.

 

• Our entire worship service is planned so that, as a congregation,
we can give God our best; and yet remain open to the Spirit’s leading as we worship.

• Music is part of our corporate life of worship where we whole-heartedly engage with God, whom we love above all. Through song, we exalt the name of Jesus, we declare His greatness, renew our covenant with Him, proclaim His gospel, and invite His presence into our lives so that we might live for His glory.

• We lift our voices and instruments together as a congregation
(one family!) in unity (one voice!), as children of the living God (one heart!). Everyone is invited to participate, both young and old, and no one is excluded. It is not about our talent, but about our hearts. Our only audience is God, our Heavenly Father.

• Our heartfelt prayer is that when we leave the service, we will continue to meditate on the hymns and songs from our corporate worship service, in order that God’s word will dwell in our hearts throughout our week. We sing His praises from when we awaken to when we lie down!


“…Instead, be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another with psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.” Ephesians 5: 18-20
