call to worship The Scriptural call to worship at the beginning of our service reminds us of the centrality of God’s Word. God reveals Himself to us through His Word and invites us to respond corporately to Him in worship. Come and see what God has done: he is awesome in his deeds toward the children of man.

Psalm 66:5

offering Giving is an act of worship in which the members of Hickory Grove give generously of our substance to further the mission of the church and to bring glory to God.

benediction Finally, brothers, rejoice. Aim for restoration, comfort one another, agree with one another, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you.

2 Corinthians 13:11

romans sermon series Paul’s letter to the Romans was written to clarify the Gospel, encourage believers, and motivate evangelism. It was written to a church trying to live out its Christian faith with a distinctly Christian worldview. Similar to us, they were diverse in their backgrounds and experiences, yet, just like us, they were unified in their belief in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Romans is an incredible letter inspired by God and created to lead us to worship the Lord Jesus Christ and to live out the implications of the Gospel together as a church.

book recommendation Plain Theology for Plain People by Charles Octavius Boothe Available in our Resource Center

scripture memory During the Romans sermon series, take the challenge to memorize different verses from Romans. For the month of February the Scripture memory passage is Romans 1:16–17. For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.” Romans 1:16–17 (ESV)
