WORSHIP JULY 14, 2013
15TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
THE GATHERING Drew Stockstill
Leader: The Lord be with you.
People: And also with you.
THE PRELUDE Walter Huff, organist
* THE CALL TO WORSHIP
Leader: It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to your name, O Most High;
People: to declare your steadfast love in the morning, and your faithfulness
by night,
Leader: to the music of the lute and the harp, to the melody of the lyre.
People: For you, O Lord, have made me glad by your work; at the works
of your hands I sing for joy.
Leader: Let us worship the Lord our God. - Psalm 92:1-4
* THE PROCESSIONAL HYMN 288 I Sing the Mighty Power of God
THE CALL TO CONFESSION
THE PRAYER OF CONFESSION
Holy God, we are your people. Yet we do not always live as though this were
true. You love us beyond our imagination and we are grateful, but not grateful
enough to risk meeting your expectations. Where you would have us act, we
have complacently waited. We have allowed barriers of our own making to rise
between ourselves and those you would have us serve. Forgive our sin, we pray,
and call us once more to live as your people, set apart and different. Transform
us. We pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.
A MOMENT OF SILENCE (for examination of conscience and personal prayers of confession)
THE ASSURANCE OF PARDON
Leader: We do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses,
People: but we have one who in every respect has been tested as we are,
yet without sin.
Leader: Let us therefore approach the throne of grace with boldness, so that we may receive
mercy and find grace to help in time of need. Believe the promise of the Gospel:
People: In Jesus Christ we are forgiven. - Hebrews 4:15-16
* THE CONGREGATIONAL RESPONSE (Hymn 579)
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost; As it was in the beginning,
is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen, Amen.
* THE PEACE OF CHRIST
(Children ages 3-10 are invited to leave after the Peace of Christ for special classes. Threes, fours & fives
are in Room 011; K-2nd grade in Room 003; 3rd-5th grade are in Room 005.)
THE CONCERNS OF THE CHURCH
(Visitors and members are invited to sign the blue friendship register pad and pass it down the pew.)
THE FIRST LESSON Psalm 25:1-10 (page 475 in the pew Bible, OT)
THE ANTHEM If Thou But Trust God To Guide Thee Jody Lindh
If thou but suffer God to guide thee, and hope in Him through all thy ways; He’ll give thee strength,
what e’er betide thee and bear thee through the evil days; who trusts in God’s unchanging love builds on
the rock that naught can move. Only be still and wait His leisure in cheerful hope, with heart content to
take what e’er thy Father’s pleasure and all discerning love hath sent; nor doubt our inmost wants are
known to Him who chose us for His own. Sing, pray, and keep His ways unswerving; in all thy labor
faithful be, and trust His Word, though undeserving, thou yet shalt find it true for thee; God never yet
forsook in need the soul that trusts in Him in deed.
THE SECOND LESSON Luke 10:25-37 (page 67 in the pew Bible, NT)
THE SERMON “In Defense of the Priest and the Levite” Baron Mullis
* THE HYMN 408 Where Cross the Crowded Ways of Life
(verses 1 through 4)
* THE APOSTLES’ CREED
I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and in Jesus
Christ his only Son our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the
Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; he
descended into hell; the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into
heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence he
shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost; the holy
catholic church; the communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection
of the body; and the life everlasting. Amen.
THE PRAYERS OF THE PEOPLE AND THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy
will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive
us our debts, as we forgive our debtors; and lead us not into temptation, but
deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever.
Amen.
THE OFFERTORY Agincourt Hymn John Dunstable
* THE DOXOLOGY AND PRAYER OF DEDICATION (Hymn 592)
* THE HYMN 341 Blessed Assurance, Jesus Is Mine!
(verses 1 through 3)
* THE CHARGE AND BENEDICTION
* THE CHORAL RESPONSE To Him Be the Glory Walt Harrah
To Him be the glory forever and ever; to Him be all power, dominion, authority. Amen.
