We are a few weeks into a new series on “Becoming Like Family”.  This is important as our online community begin to share the daily challenges with friends, and we begin to gather our larger community together as one church community.  We won’t be bound together by a building, or institution, but rather by five commitments.  Two weeks ago, we explored commitment to common learning goals.  Last week, we explored a commitment to connectedness as a community of small and large groups.

This week, our commitment is to God in worship.  Worship is not a word everyone uses every day, and even if we do, we might not sure what it means.

Does it mean to bow down and say I’m not worthy?

Kids “just worship” their parents, older siblings, etc. is that what it means?

Or if you have church experience, you might think worship is something you do at a weekly service, or even just the music part of that weekly service.

Did you know the official way to address Rob Ford is “Your Worship”?

As you can see, there is some confusion on what “worship” means.

Question: What do you think of when you hear the word worship?

Reminder: Earlier in this series, we saw the importance of reading the Bible together in sync, so our new daily bible readings start today in our mobile app and web site.

Monday - A New Idea - The Golden Rule

I'm sure you've seen the posters: Keep Calm and Carry On Have you seen the story of the poster & slogan? Check it out here if you haven't: https://vimeo.com/48907330 It's so popular, they say here, because it's a simple, warm-hearted line to inspire confidence in others in hard times. It's a memorable one-liner, meant to help people get through a war – a time where nothing is familiar, everything changing and dangerous. Life can still be like that – maybe why people love this poster so much. I did a Google search and found all sorts of people offering up their one liner for life. My favourite online life motto: Don't reduce your life to a sentence We'll see tomorrow how Jesus summed up his teaching in the Sermon on the Mount with a one-liner. Question: What is your guiding principle in life?
