The goal of Sunday

Why we get up early and drag ourselves to the Union on Sunday?

To come to the church because if you do not show up your mom gets upset? A thing to do?

Calvin said that on Sunday we meet God face-to-face. We want people to experience God's presence and respond to him in repentance and worship. And as we proclaim the Gospel and exalt the name of Jesus, we are to do nothing more than work out that same Gospel in our service to God and his church, just like we work it out in our daily worship.


The goal of Sunday whether we're sitting in the seats or serving in the praise band is to meet God face-to-face...to know him more, be edified by his truth, respond to him in repentance and worship, and then go into our communities or tribes on mission with the Gospel in our heads and our hearts.

Ultimately he sees our hearts and motivations. God uses your hard work, and even your weaknesses to further his Kingdom. And in light of his sovereignty and goodness, how can we have anything but a response of giving him back all he put in us, while delighting in all of who he is.

The Sunday worship is all about God and enjoying him and meeting him. It is not about you.
