Household Worship Guide on The King is in Your Midst and Delight in His Love from Zephaniah

This week we will consider The King is in Your Midst and Delight in His Love from Zephaniah. Who is this King and what does He do in our midst? Some stunning claims about God in His relationship to us!

At Springs Reformed Church we distribute a weekly guide running from the Lord's Day to Saturday with Monday-Wednesday reviewing the sermons that were preached the Lord's Day at the start of the week and Thursday-Saturday previewing the sermons that will be preached the coming Lord's Day.

However, for the posts here I am linking to the guide from Thursday to Wednesday so that all are aimed at the Lord's Day as the peak of the 7-day rhythm as seen in the image above. The Lord's Day post includes links to the sermons.

Thursday Zephaniah 3:1-8—Woe to Her
Friday Zephaniah 3:9-13—Restoring the People
Saturday Zephaniah 3:14-20—Sing and Rejoice, People of God!
Lord’s Day
Monday Acts 17:1–9—Another King, Jesus
Tuesday John 13:1–20—Loved to the End
Wednesday 1 Corinthians 11:23-34—Examine Yourself Before… (prep for communion)

If you find it useful to use these in your household/family worship, consider asking your pastor to speak to me about him developing something similar in your congregation.

Worship Connected is a guide prepared by me, Dr. Ed Blackwood, pastor of the Springs Reformed Church (RPCNA), to focus family worship around the sermons preached each Lord’s Day. For more information about how and why I developed this guide (and encourage other pastors to consider doing something similar) see here.
