Song 4: Good & Gracious King
Song by City Alight

I approach the throne of glory
Nothing in my hands, I bring
But the promise of acceptance
From a good and gracious King

I will give to You my burden
As You give to me Your strength
Come and fill me with Your Spirit
As I sing to You this praise

You deserve the greater glory
Overcome, I lift my voice
To the King in need of nothing
Empty-handed I rejoice

You deserve the greater glory
Overcome with joy, I sing
By Your love I am accepted
You're a good and gracious King

O what grace that You would see me
As Your child and as Your friend
Safe, secure in You forever
I pour out my praise again

You deserve the greater glory
Overcome, I lift my voice
To the King in need of nothing
Empty-handed I rejoice

You deserve the greater glory
Overcome with joy, I sing
By Your love I am accepted
You're a good and gracious King

Holy, holy, Lord Almighty
Good and gracious
Good and gracious
Holy, holy, Lord Almighty
Good and gracious King

Holy, holy, Lord Almighty
Good and gracious
Good and gracious
Holy, holy, Lord Almighty
Good and gracious King

You deserve the greater glory
Overcome, I lift my voice
To the King in need of nothing
Empty-handed I rejoice

You deserve the greater glory
Overcome with joy, I sing
By Your love I am accepted
You're a good and gracious King

You're a good and gracious King
You're a good and gracious King
Song 5: Christ & Christ Crucified
Song by Dustin Smith

The wages of my sin was death
You knew I couldn't pay the debt
You paid it with Your final breath
Oh, hallelujah, hallelujah

You took the wrath that I deserved
Your holy blood broke every curse
Your mercy had the final word
Oh, hallelujah, hallelujah

We sing Christ and Christ crucified
In You, we're raised from death to life
We sing Christ and Christ crucified
Hallelujah, hallelujah

No sin is bigger than Your blood
No shame is stronger than Your love
You said, "It's finished, it is done"
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Oh, I know death couldn't keep You in the ground, mm
You rose in power, took Hell down
The power's living in us now
Hallelujah, hallelujah

We sing Christ and Christ crucified
In You, we're raised from death to life
We sing Christ and Christ crucified
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Oh, yes
You're alive, You're alive, Jesus
Hmm, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

Oh, death couldn't hold You down
Hell couldn't steal Your crown
And there's resurrection power
In Your name, in Your name

Let all the earth cry out, lift up a holy sound
Give all the glory now to Jesus' name, Jesus' name

Death couldn't hold You down
Hell couldn't steal Your crown
And there's resurrection power
In Your name, in Your name

Let all the earth cry out (we gotta) lift up a holy sound
Give all the glory now to Jesus' name, Jesus' name

We sing Christ and Christ crucified
In You (only You), we're raised (we're raised) from death to life
We sing Christ and Christ crucified
Hallelujah, hallelujah

We sing Christ and Christ crucified
In You, we're raised from death to life
We sing Christ and Christ crucified
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Prayer Requests

We will pray for every request. It's an honor to approach the Throne of Grace on your behalf, for whatever is going on in your life.

Next Steps

You were created to grow in your relationship with Christ, and we want to be a part of that journey. Here are a few practical and personal next steps—as well as some to get better connected with our Church:
  • 1️⃣ Put your faith in Jesus Christ! If you haven't already made a profession of faith in Christ, this is where we all start. Confess your sins to God, repent (turn) from your sins and turn to Him. The death of Christ on the Cross provides atonement and forgiveness for your sins. Rejoice! (Romans 10:9-10).
  • 📖 Read your Bible everyday. Spend time with the Lord. Ask Him to give you understanding about what you're reading. Journal along with your reading.
  • 🙏 Spend time in Prayer. Pray for your day, pray for others, ask God for His provision, protection, etc. He loves to hear His people pray.
  • 😊 Give thanks! This is very underrated. Practice giving thanks for "every good gift" (James 1:17) from the Lord in your life. Maturity will be giving thanks even for the hard things, but this too will soon make sense.
  • 🙌 Worship the Lord. Worship should become a natural growing desire as you walk with the Lord. Worship is not just singing praise to God, it's a lifestyle! (1 Corinthians 10:31).
  • ⛪️ Keep coming to Church. The Church exists to help us grow, to equip us, to train us in Godliness, to feed our souls, and for so much more!
  • 📝 Take notes in Church. Listen to the messages, take notes, write down questions, ask them, dive deeper... All these things will help you grow.
  • 💬 Talk with a Pastor or Leader after service. We will always hang around after service to meet and talk to anyone who wants to be here and walk with Jesus.
  • ⚡️ Get plugged into smaller groups. Find a group you can connect with. Call and text with others from church. We all need people in our corner.
  • ✝️ Share your faith. We are made to be conduits of God's grace, not cul-de-sacs. Your faith will be strengthened as you share it with others. God has commanded us to "go into all the world" (Matthew 28:18-20) and share the good news of salvation in Jesus Christ.
  • 💯 Become a part of the Church. No more spectating—get in the game—be committed! We would love to be "your church". Click the button below to get better connected:

Giving

God loves a cheerful giver! (2 Corinthians 9:7) The Church exists because of the generosity of it's members who are a conduit of God's grace.
Thank you for giving to us and through us.

But wait, there's more

Stick around after service for some fellowship! We will have snacks, refreshments, coffee, great people, and great views. Also, here's some links to other things you might want to know about our Church 🙂.

See you next week!

Stay anchored.
