It is just amazing to me how the Holy Spirit can work in separate individuals and have them choose topics and elements of a worship service, at separate times that all fit together. We intentionally do not base our worship services on a thematic goal, but rather on some basic core principles that push toward presenting the story of God. Here is our setlist for this week October 3, 2010.
