"Worship
is the submission of all our nature to God"
- William Temple
At
Gold Canyon Community Church worship defines our
very purpose statement: "to glorify God".
We believe worship should be the centerpiece of our
gatherings and should continue outside a one-hour
Sunday morning service for the believer. We know
that our God is a creative God and that He desires
us to worship Him in many different ways: music,
drama and the spoken word, among others. Because
we believe worship is the true lifeblood of the
church we devote a lot of time and energy to ensuring
our worship is the very best it can be, because
God deserves our very best (Malachi 1:6-14).
Most
of us typically associate the word "worship"
with the music sung and played at church, but our
worship also encompasses the spoken word (i.e. the
sermon) as well as other creative outlets. If
we define worship as a grateful response to who
God is and the life he offers through His Son Jesus
Christ then everything we say and do both inside
and outside the church should be an "act of
worship"
(Romans 12:1-2). At Gold Canyon Community Church
we try to approach our times of corporate worship
with this in mind, that everything we say and do
would bring glory to God and point others towards
His redemptive love. We are seriously committed
to using the gifts and passions God has given us
to help usher others into the presence of God.

you're interested in learning more about worship
in general or about our ministries specifically
we invite to check out our collection of resources
at your leisure.
We are in need of committed individuals who are willing
to serve - if this sounds like you, please call
the church office at 288-5600 or send us
an email.
