The word "liturgy" means "work of the people." Instead of providing a product for you to passively consume, we are inviting you to participate in a weekly experience. By praying and singing and reading out loud, through sitting and standing and listening, we hope to engage you in the active act of worship. We may be physically separated during this time, but by participating in the same acts of worship each week, we are connected to one another through a common experience.
God – we gather in your presence.
Father – we long for more of you.
Jesus – we place you at the center.
Holy Spirit – come and fill our time together.
Help us to be fully present here,
to your word, to one another,
and to the world you love.
Amen.

MY BY LOVE
There is none, none like You
Who can know my heart like You do?
For all creation sings Your song
I will join with them, declaring Your glory
There is none, none like You
Who can know my heart like You do?
For all creation sings Your song
I will join with them, declaring Your glory
(There is none)
We can run straight into Your arms, unafraid
‘Cause every time we meet You, we’re met by love
And we can lift our hands to Heaven, full of faith
‘Cause every time we worship, we see Your face
We see Your face (we see Your face)
We see Your face (oh, we see Your face)
We see Your face (oh, we see Your face)
We see Your face
There is no one like You, Lord
You, Lord
Oh, there is no one like You, Lord (there’s no one)
You, Lord
‘Cause I know there is no one like You, Lord
KING OF MY HEART
Let the King of my heart
Be the mountain where I run
The fountain I drink from
Oh, He is my song
Let the King of my heart
Be the shadow where I hide
The ransom for my life
Oh, He is my song
‘Cause You are good
You are good, oh oh
And let the King of my heart
Be the wind inside my sails
The anchor in the waves
Oh oh, He is my song
Let the King of my heart
Be the fire inside my veins
The echo of my days
Oh oh, He is my song
You’re never gonna let
You’re never gonna let me down
And You’re never gonna let
You’re never gonna let me down
Join Anderson by standing and reciting alongside.
The text of lectionary passage for you to read aloud as you remain standing.
For when I preach the gospel, I cannot boast, since I am compelled to preach. Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel! If I preach voluntarily, I have a reward; if not voluntarily, I am simply discharging the trust committed to me. What then is my reward? Just this: that in preaching the gospel I may offer it free of charge, and so not make full use of my rights as a preacher of the gospel.
Though I am free and belong to no one, I have made myself a slave to everyone, to win as many as possible. To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), so as to win those under the law. To those not having the law I became like one not having the law (though I am not free from God’s law but am under Christ’s law), so as to win those not having the law. To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some. I do all this for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its blessings.
1 Corinthians 9:16-23 (NIV)
Take some time to listen to the Spirit and respond in prayer, however you feel led.
The grace of the Word of life rest upon you; the love of the Source of life embrace you; and the transforming power of the Breath of life help, strengthen and surprise you, this day and all your days. Amen.
