Worship
We at
Lebanon Evangelical Presbyterian Church envision a church full of
people worshipping God by glorifying Him, honoring Him, and enjoying
Him. We see the presence of the Holy Sprit lived out in our lives as
we relate to one another and to those outside this fellowship. We see
contagious enthusiasm for the things of God expressed in praise,
thanksgiving, and obedience as we learn to love God with all our
hearts, souls, minds, and strength. We see this creating an
expectation of great things being done in our lives, the lives of our
families and friends, and in our community. We see a church living
this way throughout the week.
Transformation
We
envision a people so transformed by the Holy Spirit that their lives
effectively demonstrate the love of God to one another as each desires
to be loved. We see people stepping outside of themselves to effect
change in one another by the ways that they touch each other’s lives.
We see friendships and relationships blossoming that would not be
possible without the power of the Holy Spirit. We see a people excited
to minister to others through the use of their God given spiritual
gifts and talents.
Discipleship
We see a
people whose desire to be changed is demonstrated by their growth in
the knowledge of God through careful and diligent study of His Holy
Word, the Bible. We envision people in prayer, seeking guidance from
the Holy Spirit in our study and application of what we learn, and
encouraging each other’s growth in the knowledge and application of
His Word to our lives. We envision a people gathering in homes to
study, pray, encourage, and support one another. We envision a people
equipped with the tools of the Christian faith, ready to seek
opportunities to share this same faith with others, open to those who
come in as visitors and examples of hope to those with whom we come in
contact during the week. We envision these equipped people ready to
seek opportunities to share their faith, being open to visitors and
examples of God’s love to the community.
