In what order will the events of the last days take place? What will happen to Israel during the Tribulation? What will life be like in the Millennial Kingdom?

Worship: God really does deserve glory! – Pastor Wetterlund
The Glory Due His Name: What God says about worship - Gary Reimers

As you come to church each Sunday what runs through your mind? Perhaps, “I hope I receive a blessing” or “I hope I give God the glory that He deserves today.” We will be looking at the perspective that God has on worship. Worship is one of the most controversial subjects of our day, yet God has spoken on the subject. We will be seeking to understand His perspective. Some of the questions that we will address: “Does worship style matter to God?”; “What should contemporary worship look like?”; “What is the Biblical philosophy of worship?” God is passionate about His glory and so should you!
