Call to Worship from the IBC family
Come Behold the Wondrous Mystery
Our God
No Longer Slaves
Christ is Mine Forevermore
These songs have been an encouragement to me lately, especially as our world feels surrounded with uncertainty and fear. Satan is trying to capitalize on this situation to maximize fear, chaos, anxiety, anger, etc. As believers in Christ, we can abide in the promises of our redeemer – Christ died to free us from the many chains that bind us.
There are SO many great songs that remind us of God’s victory over death. We’re guaranteed to face hardships, but can still rest assured that our God is greater than the temporary issues we face on earth. As we read through Luke, we should remember that there IS a contagious virus infecting this earth – it’s called the redeeming power of Jesus! It cannot be contained and there is no cure. It changes hearts and transforms lives. Our goal should be to spread this virus of Christ far and wide.
-Mark Kawiecki, March 29 worship music coordinator
