Call to Worship
The LORD reigns; let the peoples tremble! He sits enthroned upon the cherubim; let the earth quake! The LORD is great in Zion; he is exalted over all the peoples. Let them praise your great and awesome name! Holy is he!
Psalm 99:1-3 (ESV)
Worshiping God by Singing
Your Name is Matchless
We were sinners, we were orphans.
We were looking for a home.
We were lost and we were broken,
wandering alone.
Looking down at our condition,
You sent Your Son to change our fate.
Though we were hopelessly imprisoned,
He came to take our place.
Glory to the name of Jesus
Glory to the only name that saves
Ransomed the captives
Your name is matchless
What a mystery to fathom,
that we’re Your children set apart.
For we were enemies, not pilgrims,
prodigals at heart.
But Your Spirit now has caused us,
to no longer doubt Your love.
Abba, Father, You have bought us,
adopted through Your Son.
Glory to the name of Jesus
Glory to the only name that saves
Ransomed the captives
Your name is matchless
Glory to the name that freed us
Glory to the love that made a way
Beauty for ashes
Your name is matchless
Glory to Your Name
Glory to Your Name
Glory to Your Name
Ponder all we have been given:
Heirs to God through Jesus’ name
A stingless death has been made certain
And glory now awaits
Your glory now awaits
Glory to the name of Jesus
Glory to the only name that saves
Ransomed the captives
Your name is matchless
Glory to the name that freed us
Glory to the love that made a way
Beauty for ashes
Your name is matchless
Ransomed the captives
Your name is matchless

Worshiping God by Confessing our Faith
Leader: What is your only comfort in life and in death?
All: That I am not my own, but belong, body and soul, in life and death — to my
faithful Savior Jesus Christ. He has fully paid for all my sins with his precious blood, and has set me free from the tyranny of the devil.
He also watches over me in such a way that not a hair can fall from my head without the will of my Father in heaven; in fact, all things must work together for my salvation.
Because I belong to him, Christ, by his Holy Spirit, assures me of eternal life and makes me wholeheartedly willing and ready from now on to live for him.
Heidelberg Catechism Q&A #1
Worshiping God by Singing
In Christ Alone
In Christ alone my hope is found,
He is my light, my strength, my song;
This Cornerstone, this solid ground,
firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
when fears are stilled, when strivings cease.
My Comforter, my All in all,
here in the love of Christ, I stand.
In Christ alone, who took on flesh,
fullness of God in helpless babe!
This gift of love and righteousness,
scorned by the ones He came to save.
Till on the cross as Jesus died,
the wrath of God was satisfied.
For every sin on Him was laid;
here in the death of Christ I live.
There in the ground His body lay,
Light of the world, by darkness slain;
Then bursting forth in glorious day,
up from the grave He rose again!
And as He stands in victory,
sin’s curse has lost its grip on me,
For I am His and He is mine,
bought with the precious blood of Christ.
No guilt in life, no fear in death,
this is the pow'r of Christ in me.
From life's first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny.
No pow'r of hell, no scheme of man
can ever pluck me from His hand.
'Til He returns or calls me home,
here in the pow'r of Christ I'll stand.

Yet Not I, But Through Christ in Me
What gift of grace is Jesus my redeemer
There is no more for heaven now to give
He is my joy, my righteousness, and freedom
My steadfast love, my deep and boundless peace
To this I hold, my hope is only Jesus
For my life is wholly bound to his
Oh how strange and divine, I can sing: all is mine!
Yet not I, but through Christ in me
The night is dark but I am not forsaken
For by my side, the Savior He will stay
I labor on in weakness and rejoicing
For in my need, His power is displayed
To this I hold, my Shepherd will defend me
Through the deepest valley He will lead
Oh the night has been won, and I shall overcome!
Yet not I, but through Christ in me
No fate I dread, I know I am forgiven
The future sure, the price it has been paid
For Jesus bled and suffered for my pardon
And He was raised to overthrow the grave
To this I hold, my sin has been defeated
Jesus now and ever is my plea
Oh the chains are released, I can sing: I am free!
Yet not I, but through Christ in me
With every breath I long to follow Jesus
For He has said that He will bring me home
And day by day I know He will renew me
Until I stand with joy before the throne
To this I hold, my hope is only Jesus
All the glory evermore to Him
When the race is complete, still my lips shall repeat:
Yet not I, but through Christ in me!
To this I hold, my hope is only Jesus
All the glory evermore to Him
When the race is complete, still my lips shall repeat:
Yet not I, but through Christ in me!
When the race is complete, still my lips shall repeat:
Yet not I, but through Christ in me!
Yet not I, but through Christ in me!
Yet not I, but through Christ in me!

Worshiping God by Hearing His Word
Series: Head Full of Doubt
Sermon: Jesus: the Way, the Truth, the Life
1 “Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. 2 In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. 4 And you know the way to where I am going.” 5 Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?” 6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
