Preparation for Worship: Read John 15:1-8 - As we abide in Christ, what happens? (We bear MUCH fruit.) - In verse 8, who gets the glory when there is fruit? (God, the Father) Read Psalm 9:1-2 - How do you give thanks to the Lord? (With your whole heart.) - Discuss the following definition of “recount” re·count –verb (used with object) 1. to relate or narrate; tell in detail; give the facts or particulars of. 2. to narrate in order. 3. to tell one by one; enumerate. - Recognize that fruit production should cause us to recount His wonderful deeds. Take time to discuss the fruits of His wonderful deeds! - Prepare your family to come worship whole- heartedly and glorify God as we recount His work in us, the Bride!
Everyday Conversations (LOOK FOR opportunities to revisit the
preached Word and the foundational truth(s) taught): Consider this encouragement from Scott: “Our story of redemption is not simply about what God has done in the past. God is at work in the lives of His children everyday. His wonderful deeds are still happening. This Psalm reminds us that to be whole-hearted in worship, we must recount the Lord’s deeds. In other words, a whole- hearted worshipper will always aim to make God’s goodness known to others.” http://recounters.blogspot.com/ Please remember that ALL children will join us in worship on Sunday as we meet at Greenville High School for Membership Renewal!
