The Gathering 4: UP - Worship
Today we are jumping into what makes a church a church. Here at Montage we believe the bible teaches that the three fundamental elements that make up a church are “up, in and out” “Worship, Community and Mission”. The church exists in the overlap and balance of those three elements. Worship is moving from unbelief to belief in Jesus in every area of life. (Romans 12:1-2). Community is living out the “one another” commands on a daily basis and living into our connection to the larger body. Mission is making new disciples (Matthew 28:18-20) and making the Kingdom tangible (Matthew 6:10) in our network of relationships. For each of the next three months we are going to tackle one of these three topics and do a little bit more of a deep dive. This month we will focus on what the bible (and we) means when it talks about WORSHIP.
