DisciplesNet Worship #253, “The Whole Family of God” (Gilvin 06.07.2015)
"Who is my mother? Who are my brothers and sisters?" Jesus asked the crowd…then proceeded to enlighten them. You won't want to miss the answer discussed by Rev. Brandon Gilvin, our guest preacher today and a powerful word.
This is part of our series that looks at how we as disciples of Christ live out our faith in God in the 21st century.
Our worship is 30 minutes long, with singing, prayer, scripture, all designed for you to join in as suits you. We hope that you'll be blessed by worshiping with DisciplesNet, finding ways your own faith in God can grow in theses trying times.
As we do every week, our time together includes a time of communion (breaking of the bread) where you may choose to participate, or simply meditate as we tell of Jesus' invitation to "do this in remembrance of me."
If you would like to share with us at the table that goes beyond all earthly boundaries of time, place, and structure, we ask that you prepare a piece of bread of some type and a drink, such as grape juice, wine, or water. As we pray, our prayers are given to extend to where you are If you are unable to eat or drink, you may want to use a symbolic gesture or mental symbol as you come together at this table of remembrance with us. (Scroll down for an Order of Worship)
We hope that as you join us for worship you will feel a blessing from being part. Please tell friends, family, and others you know about our online church that is here with doors that are always open, walls as wide as the world, and always room at the table.
