Disciples
worship with a recognition that we can never realize
the extent of the grace of God toward us nor repay
the grace that we experience. |

The
measure of the content of our service is the adequacy
of the Word of God. The plumb line of our
hearts is Jesus-centered worship. |

God
has so designed worship that we have the capacity
to refresh Him by allowing Him to refresh us with
His presence. |

Where
true worship transports us is dependent upon our
choice. When we encounter a humble God,
our humility is the gas peddle but our pride is
the brake. |

The
Holy Spirit was given to us as an ever renewable
resource. Worship is the engine of that
renewal. |

The
Holy Spirit is never isolating. It is communal,
diverse and to be shared. |

When
we insist upon being isolated from our brothers
and sisters, we are vulnerable to weakness, faithlessness,
confusion, lack of success. |

The
people of God are most vulnerable to separation
from one another at those places where we are
closest to one another. |

Bible
– If it can mean anything to
anyone than it means nothing to everyone

In
the Kingdom of God, wisdom precedes understanding.
Wisdom bears the fruit of understanding.
In the Kingdoms of this world, wisdom is the consequence
of understanding. I gather enough knowledge.
I put it together. Then I am obedient. |

If
I am unable to find God’s love in the simplest
of things I will never be able to recognize it in
the miracle power packages. |

God’s
focus in prayer is not to change things. God’s
focus is to change me. |

Prayer
brings us to a place where we want what God wants
for the same reasons that God wants. |

Principle
of limited selfishness—What we do, even if
it is good and noble and sacrificial, we do with
the ultimate sense that it will be good for us and
hopefully others. |

Principle
of Inclusivity - Excluding another human being from
my life is not the worst thing I can do. Excluding
God from my life is the worst thing I can do.
Only after I am included in God's plan for my life
do I have any basis for including others. |
