Our most glorious and eternal calling
Worship of the Living God is our primary calling both as Christians and as
members of Oak Hills Presbyterian Church. We believe that it is the privilege of
every believer to worship the Living God, and that all ministry and service
flows from that worship. We are committed to biblical teaching in worship, as
well as the creative expression of our praise. We believe God is glorified
through diversity and creativity as we combine traditional and contemporary
music, dance and other biblically sanctioned art mediums.
Whatever the form may be, it is our desire that the King of Grace be worshiped
in spirit and in truth, through a lifestyle of complete submission of all our
nature to His. We also believe that as we worship the Lord, He uses us to reach
out to others. Our church body is richly blessed with musical and artistic
talent, and we gladly share that with those around us.
We want to give of our best by rehearsing, planning, and thinking through the
specifics of each service, eliminating distractions. Removing the hurdles of
"bad" music, clumsy segues, and "loose" group dynamics allows the congregation
to worship without being distracted by scrutinizing such things and frees them
to enter into worship unencumbered.
Therefore, it is the mission of our worship ministry to encourage believers to
live out the worship of God, not only through the music of our Sunday services
or the liturgy of the day, but in lifestyles that reach out beyond the walls of
our local assembly. We are eager to see people from all stages of the spiritual
journey come to connect with the God in whose image they have been created. It
is not our interest to alienate those who are seeking the Living God, but rather
to provide a weekly occasion for an accessible encounter with His holiness,
beauty, truth, and grace.
