The Order of Worship: Intro.

"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

How do I gain right standing with God? How do I know if I'm in right standing with God? Why, as Christians, should we live a holy life? Why do we obey God? What is the connection between faith and works? What does it mean to be "born again"? Why do I still struggle after I become a Christian? What does it mean to "fear God"? What does it mean to "love God"? Am I God's servant or am I God's friend?

These are just a few of the questions most of us have had at one point or another in our spiritual journey. I want to try to bring answers to these questions by starting from the beginning of God's account, and follow from there the story of God's relationship and interaction with man. Hopefully, in this series of blogs we'll put our worship in it's proper order.

"I've Got Worms"

"I've Got Worms. That's what we're going to call it. That will be the name of our pet store."

- Lloyd Christmas

My illustrious friend, Barry Lee, once told me, "your thoughts and ideas are like worms that crawl through my brain, and I can never seem to get them out." Possibly one of the best compliments I ever received! I've been wanting to start blogging for some time now, in an attempt to articulate many of the things of God I ponder throughout the day. 2010 seems like a good time to start. So hopefully if nothing else, this blog can plant little worms in your brain that won't leave you until they have made their way from one end to the other. Thanks for reading.
