Survey

September 8 through September 30
Over the last year in our church we focused on cultivating TCBC as a Loving Community. Even as we target Discipleship as this year’s ministry focus, we are still committed to growing as a Loving Community. We are launching a church-wide survey in conjunction with one of our behavioral science professors at the U of I, Brenda Straka, to learn how our Loving Community initiatives have impacted our congregation. But this is not a survey to find out “How did we do?”, our concern is rather, ‘How are you doing?’ We want to know how you are engaging and experiencing community in TCBC as well as learn about other aspects of your life and walk with Christ. This survey is anonymous, launched on Sept. 8 and will remain open until Sept. 30. If you have been a part of our congregation within the last year, we hope that you will consider taking this less-than-20-minute survey. This will help our church leadership know how to provide or adjust ministry to help you grow in community and in Christ. This will also benefit research in the under-explored arena of faith communities.

Faithful & True

Sundays 6-7:30pm, starting September 15
Living faithfully in regard to sex is an enormous challenge. Our sexuality has great potential but when misdirected brings great peril. To address this challenge, TCBC invites men ages 18 and up to participate in the Faithful & True curriculum. Faithful & True focuses on re-learning what it means to be a sexual being, understanding holistic sexual health from God’s perspective and overcoming destructive sexual behaviors. Participants will grow as they study a well-designed workbook, receive sound biblical instruction, and share with other men for understanding and accountability. Everything is confidential. For more information or to indicate your desire to participate, please email Pastor Jon (jweatherly@tcbc.cc).

Intro
Let everything that has breath
Praise the Lord
Praise the Lord

Verse 1
I’ll praise in the valley
Praise on the mountain
I’ll praise when I’m sure
Praise when I’m doubting
I’ll praise when outnumbered
Praise when surrounded
‘Cause praise is the water
My enemies drown in

Pre-Chorus
As long as I’m breathing
I’ve got a reason to

Chorus 1
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Praise the Lord oh my soul

Verse 2
I’ll praise when I feel it
And I’ll praise when I don’t
I’ll praise ’cause I know
You’re still in control
‘Cause my praise is a weapon
It’s more than a sound
My praise is the shout
That brings Jericho down

Chorus 2
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Praise the Lord oh my soul
I won’t be quiet
My God is alive
How could I keep it inside
Praise the Lord oh my soul

Bridge
I’ll praise ’cause You’re sovereign
Praise ’cause You reign
Praise ’cause You rose and defeated the grave
I’ll praise ’cause You’re faithful
Praise ’cause You’re true
Praise ’cause there’s nobody greater than You

Chorus 3
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Praise the Lord oh my soul
Praise the Lord oh my soul
I won’t be quiet
My God is alive

My God is alive
How could I keep it inside
I won’t be quiet
My God is alive
How could I keep it inside
Praise the Lord oh my soul

Let everything that has breath
Praise the Lord

Song of Worship: Goodness Of God

Verse 1
I love You Lord
Oh Your mercy never fails me
All my days
I’ve been held in Your hands
From the moment that I wake up
Until I lay my head
I will sing of the goodness of God

Chorus
All my life You have been faithful
All my life You have been so so good
With every breath that I am able
I will sing of the goodness of God

Verse 2
I love Your voice
You have led me through the fire
In darkest night
You are close like no other
I’ve known You as a father
I’ve known You as a friend
I have lived in the goodness of God

Bridge
Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
With my life laid down
I’m surrendered now
I give You everything
Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me

Congregational Prayer

Message

Isaiah 7:1-9
1In the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, son of Uzziah, king of Judah, Rezin the king of Syria and Pekah the son of Remaliah the king of Israel came up to Jerusalem to wage war against it, but could not yet mount an attack against it. 2When the house of David was told, “Syria is in league with Ephraim,” the heart of Ahaz and the heart of his people shook as the trees of the forest shake before the wind.
3And the Lord said to Isaiah, “Go out to meet Ahaz, you and Shear-jashub your son, at the end of the conduit of the upper pool on the highway to the Washer’s Field. 4And say to him, ‘Be careful, be quiet, do not fear, and do not let your heart be faint because of these two smoldering stumps of firebrands, at the fierce anger of Rezin and Syria and the son of Remaliah. 5Because Syria, with Ephraim and the son of Remaliah, has devised evil against you, saying, 6“Let us go up against Judah and terrify it, and let us conquer it for ourselves, and set up the son of Tabeel as king in the midst of it,” 7thus says the Lord God:
“‘It shall not stand,
and it shall not come to pass.
8For the head of Syria is Damascus,
and the head of Damascus is Rezin.
And within sixty-five years
Ephraim will be shattered from being a people.
9And the head of Ephraim is Samaria,
and the head of Samaria is the son of Remaliah.
If you are not firm in faith,
you will not be firm at all.’”

Isaiah 8:11-15
11For the Lord spoke thus to me with his strong hand upon me, and warned me not to walk in the way of this people, saying: 12“Do not call conspiracy all that this people calls conspiracy, and do not fear what they fear, nor be in dread. 13But the Lord of hosts, him you shall honor as holy. Let him be your fear, and let him be your dread. 14And he will become a sanctuary and a stone of offense and a rock of stumbling to both houses of Israel, a trap and a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem. 15And many shall stumble on it. They shall fall and be broken; they shall be snared and taken.”

Song of Worship: Holy Forever

Verse 1
A thousand generations falling down in worship
To sing the song of ages to the Lamb
And all who’ve gone before us
And all who will believe
Will sing the song of ages to the Lamb

Pre-Chorus
(Jesus) Your name is the highest
Your name is the greatest
Your name stands above them all
All thrones and dominions
All powers and positions
Your name stands above them all

Chorus 1
And the angels cry Holy
All creation cries Holy
You are lifted high Holy
Holy forever

Verse 2
If you’ve been forgiven and if you’ve been redeemed
Sing the song forever to the Lamb
If you walk in freedom and if you bear His name
Sing the song forever to the Lamb
We’ll sing the song forever and amen

Chorus 2
Hear Your people sing Holy
To the King of Kings Holy
You will always be Holy
Holy forever

Tag
You will always be Holy
Holy forever

Song of Worship: Holy Holy Holy (#2)

Verse 1
Holy holy holy
Lord God Almighty
Early in the morning
Our song shall rise to Thee
Holy holy holy
Merciful and mighty
God in three persons
Blessed Trinity

Verse 2
Holy holy holy
All the saints adore Thee
Casting down their golden crowns
Around the glassy sea
Cherubim and seraphim
Falling down before Thee
Which wert and art
And evermore shalt be

Verse 3
Holy holy holy
Though the darkness hide Thee
Though the eye of sinful man
Thy glory may not see
Only Thou art holy
There is none beside Thee
Perfect in power
In love and purity

Verse 4
Holy holy holy
Lord God Almighty
All Thy works shall praise Thy name
In earth and sky and sea
Holy holy holy
Merciful and mighty
God in three persons
Blessed Trinity
