Visitation of God's presence is a byproduct of worship. However, we don't worship in order to gain His presence. He is worthy to be worshipped whether or not He chooses to show up.

Many Christians and Christian leaders have been neutralized by the love of money and materialism. The homage paid to affluence becomes a burden that saps our energy as well as our love for God and other people...Like Jesus and Paul, we can learn to be content with what we have, living modestly in order that we may give liberally to the work of the kingdom and to meet the needs of others.

When we stand for social justice, we testify to the presence of the Kingdom.

The good news is that Jesus is praying for us. The bad news is that we are going to need it!

The Church is not the building, its the people, its not just the gathering, its also the scattering.

Worship has a two-fold aspect...we lift Him up and exalt Him, and as a result are drawn into His presence where He speaks to us.

Worship, the act of freely giving love to God, forms and informs every activity of the Christian's life.
