Praise and Worship

Worship, according to God's Biblical instruction, involves a lifestyle which includes dynamic experiences of encountering His presence through profound conversations with the Lord.

These experiences involve singing, praying, and so much more. We praise and worship God with instruments (Ps. 150: 3-6), with voice (Ps. 149:1), with hands (Ps. 47:1), with the dance (Ps. 149:3), also with uplifted hands (Ps. 134:2), with reverent surrender (1 Tim. 2:8), and most importantly, in spirit and in truth (John 4: 23).
