Wednesday Night 11/9/11

Hey guys, a couple of things. First of all if you missed First Sunday, you missed out! We had an awesome time together singing, praying, hearing the Word of God read, fellowshipping, and just worshipping in general. So if you missed First Sunday make sure to come tonight as Pastor Jim continues to take us back through a section of Nehemiah regarding REVIVAL! As we've said before revival is something we desperately need in our individual hearts, the local church, and the church at large. Tonight we'll be looking at Nehemiah 9 and the implications and affects of REAL REVIVAL. So come and be a part of our Wednesday Night gathering. It is a sweet time of worship and teaching and is refreshing to the soul in the middle of a crazy work week! We'll be singing songs that magnify Christ as our source of hope, strength, and everlasting love so learn the songs and come ready to worship our Lord!

1) Blessed Be Your Name

2) Everlasting God

3) Lord of Lords

4) Our God

5) Here Is Love

Our Desire

"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly - teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.” (Col. 3:16)

We take the Word of God extremely serious at CCR and recognize our spiritual call to worship in all areas of our lives ("Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship"-Romans 12:1) and here according to Col. 3:16 in the area of Music. It is our desire to see you the congregation create an atmosphere of worship that displays the greatness of our Holy God, making big of Him and little of ourselves through the obedience of attributing to God the Musical Worship that is due His Name.

What That Looks Like

“Worship songs should serve the church as take-home theology, reinforcing God glorifying doctrine and teaching through Christ-centered lyrics and memorable melodies.” – C.J. Mahaney

In order to cultivate that type of atmosphere there needs to be a clear understanding of the songs we sing and why we sing them. We need to come to grips with the reality of what is taking place during the "worship service." These are not just poetic lyrics with catchy melodies be they hymns or modern contemporary worship. Rather the songs we sing at CCR are an expression of our dire need for the salvific redemption provided through the Son of God at the hand of the Father, and an outpour of gratitude for the work that was done in our stead on the cross for the Glory of God primarily and the salvation of men!
