    Define Worship

    to me worship is an action that should define the life of any born again child of God. worship does not always have to be about the music....in fact imho if one feels like that is all there is too it maybe their relationship to God needs to be reexamined.... all creation is called to praise Him...

Too many times we focus on the outward appearance of people....not to say we shouldnt be modest...but Jesus told us to be...

    Does your church tithe?

    Here is how I see it, I do not tithe because I am bound by the 613 commandments that God gave too fhrough Moses. I do tithe because I see a pattern of those who tithed before there was a law given. Abraham paid tithes to the priesthood of Melchesidek...I do as well. HEbrews tells us that Jesus...

    What if... Outrageous Worshipper

    I had someone tell me one time that they dont understand how I can play the drums. He said " you have your eyes closed or your head is turned away from everything going on, or you have one hand raised and playing perfect rhythm with the other...and times you look like your dancing behind the...
