Worship Together: What is Worship?
Pastor Pete Keirstead
April 6, 2025

Acts 2:42-47 All the believers devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching, (Personal Study) and to Fellowship …and to prayer (Prayer and Fasting). A deep sense of awe came over them all, and the apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders (Service). And all the believers met together in one place and shared everything they had. They sold their property and possessions and shared the money with those in need (Generosity). They Worshiped together at the Temple each day, met in homes for the Lord’s Supper, and shared their meals with great joy and generosity - all the while praising God and enjoying the goodwill of all the people. And each day the Lord added to their fellowship (Evangelism) those who were being saved.

They sang: “Blessing and honor and glory and power belong to the one sitting on the throne and to the Lamb forever and ever.”
