Quote of the Day - C.S. Lewis

Quote of the Day - C.S. Lewis

Tim Keller - Evangelistic Worship

Today's thought comes from Tim Keller, Pastor of Church of the Redeemer in New York City. My friends have been raving about his teaching so I thought I would check it out. The following passage comes from an essay he wrote on evangelistic worship. For the complete article, click here.

Celebrate deeds of mercy and justice. We live in a time when public esteem of the church is plummeting. For many outsiders or inquirers, the deeds of the church will be far more important than words in gaining plausibility. The leaders of most towns see "word-only" churches as costs to their community, not a value. Effective churches will be so involved in deeds of mercy and justice that outsiders will say, "we cannot do without churches like this. This church is channeling so much value into our community through its services to people that if it went out of business, we'd have to raise everybody's taxes." Mercy deeds give the gospel words plausibility (Acts 4:32 followed by v.33.) Therefore, evangelistic worship services should highlight offerings for deed ministry and should celebrate through reports and testimonies and prayer what is being done. It is best that offerings for mercy ministry be separate, attached (as traditional) to the Lord's Supper. This brings before the non-Christian the impact of the gospel on people's hearts (it makes us generous) and the impact of lives poured out for the world.

Quote of the Day - C.S. Lewis

The most valuable thing the Psalms do for me is to express the same delight in God which made David dance.
