Doxologies: Goodness of God
We are looking forward to singing a new song together as a church family this weekend called “Goodness of God” by Bethel.
What we love about this song is that it calls us to remember and worship God for His complete goodness to each of us in our lives, and the truth that He walks alongside us through every season of life. The bridge proclaims “Your goodness is running after me.”
Much like the shepherd who sought after the one lost sheep, and the father who ran down the road to welcome his prodigal son home, God’s goodness pursues us in such a way that His love was poured out for us while we were still far from Him. We pray this song blesses each of you and that as we sing it together as a body and individually throughout the week, that it reminds us of God’s goodness and love for us.
GOODNESS OF GOD
I love You, Lord
For 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
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God
And all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God
I love Your voice
You have led me through the fire
In the darkest night
You are close like no other
I’ve known You as a Father
I’ve known You as a Friend
And I have lived in the goodness of God
‘Cause 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
‘Cause Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
And all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I’m gonna sing of the goodness of God
‘Cause all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I’m gonna sing of the goodness of God
Oh, I’m gonna sing of the goodness of God
Doxologies: Unto Him
We are so excited to share a new original song with you that we’ll sing together this Sunday!
“Unto Him” is primarily based out of Jude 24-25 and Romans 8:38-39. Please watch and listen to this video of an acoustic version of the song. We will be releasing two studio versions of the song, along with several resources to go along with it, very soon.
We pray that God would encourage us all through this song and the truth from God’s Word!
Doxologies: Mighty God (Another Hallelujah)
What a joy to offer a new song as we worship together this weekend.
Please take some time to listen through Mighty God (Another Hallelujah) and reflect on the goodness of our mighty God, who is worthy of all praise, honor, and glory.
The wind is watching every gesture of Your hand
Waves of fear collapse at Your command
I know tomorrow when the pressure rushes in
You’ll be there to rescue me again
What a mighty God, what a mighty God You are
What a mighty God, what a mighty God You are
Here in Your presence there will be no other throne
All my heart is Yours and Yours alone
The song of heaven and my soul will sing the same
Jesus Christ, the name above all names
What a mighty God, what a mighty God You are
What a mighty God, what a mighty God You are
Glory, glory, and a thousand hallelujahs
O Lord my God, how great You are
Honor, power, and another hallelujah
O Lord my God, how great You are

New Elders Ordained
RBC is an elder-led church. Our council of elders are responsible for the care, oversight, leadership, and shepherding of the spiritual condition and fiscal well-being of the church. These are men who have been examined and meet the biblical qualifications as set forth in 1 Timothy 5:17, Titus 1:9, 1 Peter 5:1-3, Acts 20:28, and Mark 10:42-45. Along with our pastors, deacons and staff, they serve, lead, pray for, and minister to our congregation in word and in deed.
After a long period of examination and feedback, we were pleased to recognize three new elders during our time of worship last weekend: Dan Lowen, Ed Lee and Jason VanDorsten. Pray for these men as they join our existing elders in caring for our church. Click here to “meet” our elders and read bios on each of them.
For an overseer, as God’s steward, must be above reproach. He must not be arrogant or quick-tempered or a drunkard or violent or greedy for gain, but hospitable, a lover of good, self-controlled, upright, holy, and disciplined. He must hold firm to the trustworthy word as taught, so that he may be able to give instruction in sounddoctrine and also to rebuke those who contradict it. – Titus 1:7-9
