From Our Pastor's Heart
By Alan Warneke, Senior Pastor

     In early November, Lois and I attended the  symphony at the Civic Center Mansfield   Theater. As many of our city's finest musicians took their seats with their instruments, the began to play. It sounded more like rush hour than Mozart! As musicians tuned their instruments, it did not sound like music. Then the conductor took his stand and the instruments fell silent.  A hush came over the audience as he raised his baton. At the downbeat, a wave of harmony filled the auditorium. The musicians now played in concert with each other. Together they were an orchestra creating a sound that couldn't be created individually. I leaned over to Lois and uttered one of my favorite words, "Wow!"
     Jesus has called us to be a symphony. Matt. 18:19 says, "If two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by the Father in heaven. For where two or three come together in My name there an I with them." The Greek word for agree in this passage is "sumphoneo" from which we derive our word symphony. When we are in agreement before the Lord in our lives, ministries, and in our worship together, the combined effort is like that of a symphony. Together the unique "notes" of each life comprise an orchestra that magnifies and glorifies God in a way no individual can.
     Unfortunately, our culture is in love with "solo artists." Independence is one of the hallmarks of our society. The high premium we place on self reliance pushes many facets of community to the periphery - including worshipping together. Worshipping with others just becomes a weekend option. The hectic pace of life causes us to secretly wonder, "Is worshipping with other believers really that important?"
     We need to remember that worshipping together is about far more than simply singing a hymn or chorus with our friends in church. Worshipping God with other believers is his idea. It should be important to us because it matters to Him.  Worshipping together also reflects God's nature. God is a Trinity, a community of persons. There has never been a moment in all eternity where a single, unrelated being ahs existed! God has made us fundamentally incomplete. We are designed to find our completion in relationship with Him and with others in the family of faith (1 Cor. 12, Eph. 4:1-16). Together we form a community in symphony with one another.
     Our culture has enshrined the ideal of the lone ranger. Both that's not God's plan for our worship. Instead, He longs to be among us as we offer our praise to Him. The result? Encouragement in our faith, deepened intimacy with Jesus, a renewed passion to pursue His purpose, and a joyous camaraderie as we journey together. This Advent, let's take time to be a symphony of worship together.
