Over the last few days I have had
the opportunity to be present at a number of worship services. In the last four
days, I attended a funeral, participated in communion with a diverse group of
Christians while at a concert, witnessed the baptism of one Beacon student and
her four siblings, and attended my own church where our pastor preached and led
communion for the first time as a fully ordained pastor within the Christian
Reformed Church.
Our throughline for the month is
God-worshipping. What struck me the most in the varied services that I happened
to attend was the common thread of God’s sovereignty – the acknowledgement that
Jesus is Lord of all things, all times, all places and all people. This is a
central belief of the Christian faith, and one that is common across Christian
denominations. Jesus is Lord of all things. He alone is worthy of our
worship.
We will be exploring the theme of
God-worshipping at our Thanksgiving Chapel on Wednesday. It should be a great
chapel with lots of student involvement. As always, parents and visitors are
welcome to attend.
