Worship preaching

Dr. Dewey Bertolini is still away speaking in California, and this Sunday at New Hope Christian Fellowship I'll be the preacher man for the day!

I’ve been a worship pastor for about 17 years now, and in all that time I've only really preached twice on Sunday morning. (If I stay at this rate, I'll be up to preach again sometime in early 2013). But I still look at this rare occurance as worship leading...Did you know that the time we take each week to learn from God’s Word is an act of worship? It should be!

Anything we do to acknowledge God’s greatness and goodness and lordship is worship. If you come to our preaching time humbly seeking to take God’s Word and apply it to your life, so that your thoughts and actions reflect His will, you are worshiping! And my goal is to lead our people in that kind of worship this Sunday.

So if you're coming to New Hope this week, come ready to hear from God. I'm no Dewey Bertolini, but I'll do my best to just serve you what I've found in the Bible, and hopefully His words will inspire you to live for Him!
