Worship at Deer Creek is:
God Centered
Worship is about God, not just our experience. God is the
primary audience and object of our worship. We gather to hear about who God is and what he has done for us in His Son Jesus.
Formative
We believe that the elements of gathered worship are means
of grace that form us spiritually. Every element from singing to scripture reading, prayer to preaching, forms and shapes us as followers of Jesus.
Scriptural
Because it is God’s word to us, we believe that the bible should be central to our liturgy, prayer, preaching, and song selection.
Liturgical
We believe that worship is a conversation with God where we hear his word and collectively respond. Because of that, a typical worship service has a basic liturgy that involves a call to worship, singing, confession of sin, readings from scripture, prayer, preaching, sacraments, and final blessing.
And they devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. Acts 2.42
