WORSHIP IN EDEN: What We Had, What We Lost, What Was Restored
WORSHIP NOTES Volume 14, No. 10 (October 2019) WHAT WE HAD God’s own assessment of His creative work was that it was “good” (9 times in Genesis 1:4–2:12), and that after man was added it was all “very good” (1:31). God placed Adam and Eve in the Garden, where they had direct, unfettered access to God— unmediated worship: Although the Scriptures do not specifically say so, worship of God

Easter Praise!
WORSHIP NOTES Volume 14, No. 3 (March 2019) Almost all of us go through life constantly suppressing the truth from our own minds that death is coming for each of us. The mortality rate is 100%!

Important New Testament Worship Passages (Part 11)
WORSHIP NOTES Volume 9, No. 4 (April 2014) 14. Turning from False to True Worship (1 Thessalonians 1:8-10) Too often we talk about the gospel only in negative terms: that is, how it saves us (and gloriously so!) from sin, death and hell. But it is important to realize and to emphasize that we are not just saved from something, but also to something: to a personal relationship with our
