Consumed Recap

During our time together we focused on Jesus teaching on worship found in John 4. Here is how it unfolded:
1)Worship is now no longer bound to the temple (church)
a) We are living stones that have been called to declare the praises of Him who rescued us out of the darkness and into His marvelous light (1 Peter 1)
2)Now worship happens in everything we do.
a) Whether we eat or drink or whatever we do, we do it all for the glory of God (1 Cor 10:31)
b) Offer yourselves as a living sacrifice... this is your spiritual act of worship (Romans 12:1)
3)Worshiping in truth Honors God
a)tethered to the Word
b)Worshiping what we Know

Consumed: Retreat

We are gearing up for our retreat... the facilities are decorated, the band is practiced up, and there are worship stations for people to express their creativity in worship either through painting/ drawing, or writing out prayers and placing them in the cracks of our prayer wall (wailing wall).

It has been incredible to put to practice what we will be teaching about this weekend. Worshiping even in the preparation. I have an anticipation of what God is going to accomplish this weekend and I cannot wait to see His might hand at work!

Please pray for all the students that will attend. We are hoping God would use this as a stake in the ground that will help students to develop habits of worship that will last a lifetime.
