worship/ practice…


A focused worship is to be facilitated by the leadership (of whatever venue) as an inspired response to the truths of God revealed during a given event or meeting. 


On any given Sunday, the normal practice of Hope is as follows:

    • gather: greeting the saints

    • preparation: focus initially directed to

      others about God, then moving to God

    • instruction: His words to us

    • response: focus directed to God

    • communion: focus on His sacrifice

    • a fellowship meal: breaking bread

    • a fellowship time: church is to be built

      on relations, and this is a key time to

      build & strengthen those relationships

      within the body


During the mid-week home meetings the worship will be a version of this.
