WORSHIP STYLE AT RIVERBEND
Our freedom of worship will never surrender to fanaticism.
We are forthright and expressive, but differentiate between the sound of praise and the noise of people.
Our worship includes a variety of musical genres and expressions, all aligned to the purpose of exalting and worshiping the Lord God.
Our worship aims to be both celebrative and intimate – most importantly, we desire to wholeheartedly honor God, follow the Spirit’s direction and express ourselves with our heads, emotions, and physical bodies.
“Let all that I am praise the LORD; with my whole heart,I will praise His holy name.” Psalms 103:1
During our worship time together you may observe worship expressions that include:
• Raising of hands (1 Timothy 2:8) • Clapping (Psalm 47:1) • Dancing (Psalm 149:3) • Musical instruments (Psalm 150) • Spontaneous singing or prayer (Ephesians 5:19) • Spiritual manifestations/gifts (I Corinthians 12:7-11) • Everything done properly and in order (1 Corinthians 14:40)
