Music
is an
important part of our worship here at CHBC. Although music is an
important element in worship, worship is not music alone!
Prayer,
the reading and teaching of God's Word, the collection of tithes and
offerings and even the fellowship (handshaking) time in the service are
all parts of worship! That said, music is probably the term
most
commonly associated with the term worship. As part of the
worship, music is about
God
and for
God. We do not
sing to entertain, nor for our own pleasure and enjoyment (although it
IS
enjoyable to worship through song!!), we sing to worship and give glory
to Him.
While
our style is a contemporary and band driven sound, we sing familiar, traditional hymns of the
faith that express our belief in God and His son Jesus Christ-
who they
are, and what they have done. Of course, we also sing newer songs of faith-
many of which quote scripture, and many of which sing from a first
person standpoint
to God, expressing praise for whom
He is, the many names of God,
declaring his attributes, and what he has done for each of us on a
personal level. We believe that it is important to sing about
God, acknowledging who He is, and to sing to God,
acknowledging who we
are, and our absolute need and reliance upon Him.
Our Praise Team consists of two components, the Celebration
Singers are the song leaders, and are accompanied by the Worship Band
in our musical
Praise and Worship in the Sunday Worship Service. Our worship Band is led
by Richard Easterling. We have an
exciting time singing with them in every worship service! If you love
to play or sing, we have a place for you to serve! We would love to
have you come and worship with us! We invite you
to come and join us!
