11.1.26

Nov 1, 2026 - Liturgy // Writer: Megan

Scripture Reading: 1:28-32, The Gospel of Righteousness

Call to Worship:

Your ways, O Lord, are too great for us to comprehend!

Your faithfulness, righteousness, and unfailing love

Extend beyond what we can imagine.

We worship you for your mighty ways!

As we draw near to worship you, we ask that you would open our eyes to see you more clearly,

Prepare our minds to know you more deeply, 

And soften our hearts that we may worship you more completely,

For you are worthy of all the praises we can bring.

Confession and Lament

Lord, we confess our temptation to accept from you only the things that sound good to us.

Instead, may we have the courage to believe and receive your words,

Even when they are difficult or unpopular.

Instead of turning away in fear or apathy, may we wrestle with you in prayer,

Knowing that you long to meet us in our struggles

Reveal more of your character, deepen our trust, and transform us along the way.

We believe, help our unbelief.

Assurance of Gospel Peace:

O loving Father, never let us forget all that you have done for us!

When we were lost in sin, you came looking for us.

When we were in darkness, your light broke through.

We didn’t save ourselves, you saved us by your grace!

Let our gratitude overflow toward you in worship

And may it flow outward from us as we share the hope that we have.

May we give grace as grace has been given to us.
