heart of worship liturgy

Sunday night as a part of a series called "Experience" we did a communion liturgy based on the book of hebrews. I thought i would post it along with a few pics....



Intro Video:



Reading: Hebrews 1:4 So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs.

Response (Together): I’m coming back to the heart of worship, for you are greater than the angels, greater than all created beings, Jesus you are great!

Song: How great is our God (Chorus/Bridge) (Chris Tomlin)

Reading: Hebrews 2:14 Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might destroy him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil—
Let us bring the bread to the table

Action: {The bread is brought forward to the table}

Response (Together): I’m coming back to the heart of worship, for you body was given for us, you shared in a fully human life, you know what we go through

Action: {Lift up the bread and break it then say} “The body of Jesus given for us”

Reading: Hebrews 3:1-4, 4:14-16

Talk: Focusing in on the OT sacrificial system and how Jesus replaces/ fulfills / is greater than The Angels, Moses/Law, the high priest and the sacrificial system.

Reading: Hebrews 9:8-9, 9:12-14

Response (Together): I’m coming back to the heart of worship, for you came to fulfil the promises of old and create a new, direct way for us to worship.

Song: Nothing but the blood (Matt Redman)

Action: {During the song the wine is brought to the table…}

Communion:

Reading: Hebrews 10:1-10

Response (Together): I’m coming back to the heart of worship, for your sacrifice was once for all, we remind ourselves each time we come to your table, but it is finished, our sins are forgiven, thank you Jesus.

Song: The heart of worship (Matt Redman)

Benediction: So may Jesus remain at the heart of your worship, may you know that his death was once and for all, let us boldly approach the throne of grace knowing that it is finished, and he has won!
