Worshipping with the Body

Nairobi Chapel

This morning I worshipped at Nairobi Chapel     www.nairobichapel.org

As the title says above I was worshipping with the Body and with the body.  My fellow brothers and sisters from many different tribes, tongues and nations swayed, clapped, danced and together lifted up worship to our Lord.

The church meets under a huge white tent.  It makes sense with the moderate climate of Nairobi.  The service included four main parts woven together in an incredible sense of community and connectedness. 

First was singing and worship, followed by greeting each other, followed by an interview with a couple sharing in such an authentic way how God transformed their lives and marriage, followed by Pastor Oscar preaching on Jonah 3.

He gave a powerful message on how God didn’t call Jonah to convert the Ninevites, but to deliver God’s message.   The point – God calls us today to deliver his message.  It is up to him to do the converting.
