Apologia: The First Commandment

God gave the commandment to “worship Him alone” as the first since it teaches us to understand the foundation and source of our eternity and morality. As people living in a highly developed technological age with plenty of information and knowledge readily available, we are always looking for multiple options and tend to pick and choose things that fit our lifestyle or our dream. We live in a pluralistic, diverse, tolerant society and are often overwhelmed with all the different things that are in front of us. Yet God commands us to worship Him alone in spite of all the numerous gods available to choose from. He tells us that He is the only God worthy of our love and praise.

Vocation Growing Up – Encouraging Youth Leadership

“We want to build up teens who are willing to serve in the church, and as appropriate, might consider careers in professional church work. As we seek to encourage young people in their faith journeys, the most beneficial things we can offer them are opportunities to get involved with service and leadership in the church. When done the right way, this allows youth to feel valued and deeply connected to the Body of Christ.”
