Christian Worship: Are You Prepared, Participating, and Practicing? by Robert Baines
This article discusses the importance of being prepared for, participating in, and practicing what we talk about in worship. There are too many who get nothing out of worship because they put nothing into it.
Does God accept your worship? by Robert Randle
There is doubtless unanimous agreement among believers in the Christian Church about the importance of assembling together to worship our Heavenly Father and Savior, Jesus Christ of Nazareth. The services of devotion with fervent prayers, songs of thanksgiving and praises, as well as hearing the Word of God taught to us seem to permeate the very core of our being.

The Holy Spirit bearing witness with our 'spirit' confirms and authenticates our spiritual adoption as children of God, but does even this heavenly gift substitute for our giving to God in everything we do the kind of worship that He regards as pleasing to Him? It isn't enough just to be religious and sincere but the bigger question is whether the sacrifice that is being offered to the Creator is of "Faith."
The Difference Between Praise and Worship by James Barringer
Christian music is often referred to as "praise and worship," as if the two terms were interchangeable. Although they're frequently used that way, they actually mean two very different things.

Is it wrong to use musical instruments in Christian worship services? by Robert Randle
Singing praises to the Lord God is the most beautifully moving ways to honor and express our love of Him. On this point, there is unanimous agreement among the Christian Church; however, there is a group of believers who teach that it is "unscriptural" to use musical instruments and offer up spiritual songs, hymns, and psalms acappela-style in the worship services.
Jesus First by glenn coon
What comes first, Jesus or doctrines?
The dangers of negativity
Having a form of godliness but denying its power by Robert Randle
There are many Evangelical Christian laymen and clergy who believe in divine healings. Each Church and its leadership has different interpretations and traditional teachings regarding how this spiritual grace is administered. Are conditions today such that the healings taking place occur in private and not before the assembled saints, where all can praise the Lord for his great deliverance.
Just What is the Woman's Role in the Church? by Robert Randle
It has been said, and quite truly, that women are the 'backbone' of the Church. many things would not get done in the Body of Christ were it not for the good sisters and their amazing organizational and time-management skills, spirituality, and devotion. Among more and more Christian Chrches is the prominence of women in positions which were previously almost exclusively held by men. Women are one-half of the Earth's population and control an ever-increasing amount of the wealth of the world, not to mention the old saying, "The hand that rocks the cradle guides the Nation," it should not be too surprising that women want more of an involvement in the things that pertain to life and godliness. There are many who welcome this change and there are those from the "Old School" who believe that this should not be so in the Church. The following are passages for your consideration.
Christian Mega-Churches: A Sign of the Times? by Robert Randle
There is certainly nothing wrong with increasing numbers of people surrendering to the Lordship of Jesus Christ. On the Pentecost after Jesus' resurretion, about three thousand were added to the original one hundred twenty Galilean believers in the first and second chapter of ACTS. These adherents to the 'Faith' were taught the Gospel of Jesus Christ in all its simplicity without any gimmicks,commercialism, merchandising, and religious entertainment or programs.
How to really worship the Lord God by Robert Randle
To offer up the worship of praise and thanksgiving to the Creator of heaven and earth is not a matter to be taken lightly. This should be a time of awe, fear, and reverential pause, reflection, and silence before offering up these spiritual things to Him. This is not a time for playing, inattentiveness and socializing.
Are you offering "strange fire" to the Lord? by Robert Randle
To offer up praises before the awesome God and Creator of the Universe for all His wonderful blessings should be accompanied by humility, love, and reverential fear. Sadly, for many parishoners it is a time of social mingling in the guise of peeudo-worship, predictable religious platitudes and feigned piety.
Everything Is Possible! by louis gander

Or explain a rainbow's color, to someone blind from birth?
Or begin to taste the smallest crumb of Gods tremendous worth?

Almighty Applause: Reflections on Worship by Vanessa Peters
"Almighty Applause" explores the disparity between our passion for worship and entertainment.

One step, two steps. My feet begin to move. Faster and faster we move until I begin to realize my steps have become a dance. Click, click, click. Swoosh, click, swoosh. Rhythm. My feet begin to make music.

Where were You? by Roger Jennings
This is the kind of talk that you would have heard 2005 years ago in Jerusalem a few days after they crucified Christ at Calvary. At that time I can see where there would be disbelief and doubt. People wanted a savior but not for what Jesus came to do.
true worship by dumi nkomo
The Samaritan woman had discoursed with Jesus about her life. This portion of Scripture begins with discernment, "Sir I see that You are a prophet." That was worship and reverence. Worship is recognizing Who God is and what he represents.

She then added, "Our fathers worshipped (past tense) on this mountain, but you Jews claim that the place we must worship (present tense) is in Jerusalem." The Samaritans had a past experience of worship and it was mountain worship. It was not the true worship because it was based on past tradition.
Heart of Worship by Aaron Griffith
We as Christians are experts at division. We spend a great deal of our time and energy promoting what makes us different, sometimes at the expense of other Christians. One area that we do this so well is in our "worship" style, but what is worship? We have become so focused on pleasing ourselves by focusing on appeasing our preferences and attacking those who don't agree, that we have forgotten that worship is about focusing on God. We need to come back to the "heart" of worship.
Sorrow and love flow mingled down by Adam Bennett
Communion is the moment where sorrow and joy meet most clearly in our Christian experience.
