After which, Joe Stroud is introduced (4:01-5:43). Stroud’s message is on the “Worship of the Church.” He begins by defining worship as man’s response to God’s revelation of Himself (5:44-9:00). He continues by stating that there are four responses of worship to God’s divine revelation. The four responses are: being amazed, confessing sin, experiencing God’s grace, and witnessing for Christ (9:01-13:00). He continues by explaining that worship must be at the center of all churches do (13:01-15:50). In addition, he examines the corporate worship service (15:51-20:46). He illustrates three principles every Chruch should incorporate into their worship (20:47-25:46). He concludes by explaining the determining factor of worship is always God’s character (25:47-27:39). He closes in benediction (27:40-27:57). This chapel is distorted from 12:53-12:59.
