Praising Together for Tomorrow: Day 3

Praise God for who He is! Praise God for what He has done!

by David Joynt on November 01, 2016


PSALM 33:1-9

In our worship, we must strive for excellence because God is worthy of our best. At VPC, we are blessed with many gifted singers, musicians, and worship leaders. Our Valley Singers have been reconstituted for the fall and a new women’s chorus has begun. Additional congregational gifts are emerging at our 10:30 service.

Why is God worthy of our best efforts? He is worthy because of His blessings—His gifts to us in creation and redemption. His truth and mercy, His grace and forgiveness, His guidance and help. But He is also worthy in Himself, as the Author of all things, the Source of everything beautiful, everything right, everything real, and everything loving.

 

Praise God for who He is!

Praise God for what He has done!

Family Focus - Tell your kids why you love them for what they do and who they are. Tell them we love God in the same way!

About the Author
David Joynt

Dave Joynt began his service as a pastor at Valley Presbyterian Church in Paradise Valley, Arizona in September 2014. This meant a move away from the Northeast, where he has a long history, growing up in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania and then serving congregations in Delaware and New Jersey for a total of 23 years.

Dave was nurtured in a great church in Bethlehem where his parents, Anne and Carey, served as elders. He graduated in classics from Lehigh University where his Father taught, and then from Oxford, where he met his wife Julia. Ordained in 1988, he completed a Ph.D. from Princeton Theological Seminary in 1993.

He and Julia have a son, Tristan, and a daughter, Madeleine.
