Vision



The
Worship & Arts Ministry of East Cobb Presbyterian is characterized by
the following vision statements:

Cultivating the heart of the psalmist,
Recapturing the story of redemption,
Celebrating the gifts of artistic expression.
Cultivating the Heart of the Psalmist
From the most exuberant of praise to the darkest of lament, the psalms
give us a lyrical record of lives lived in perpetual response to God.
This dynamic of unceasing worship and honest expression is what we are
seeking to cultivate at East Cobb – not a once-a-week observance, but a
lifestyle of perpetual response.
Recapturing the Story of Redemption
So
often we live life in a
dislocated
manner. We can so easily begin to live selfishly and independently, or
we can get so easily
discouraged by the harsh realities of life.
Corporate worship - through the power of word, sacrament, song, and
prayer - paints another reality for us and places us in the context of a
story larger than ourselves. Worship opens our eyes to the beauty of
the gospel and
relocates
us
in the eternal nature of God and his kingdom, in the context of
community and relationship.
Celebrating the Gifts of Artistic Expression
We
believe that artistic action is a natural overflow of perpetual worship,
and thus we embrace a variety of creative expressions. We are
continuously exploring the intersection of worship, art, and gospel, and
desire to invest in the emerging generation, recognizing the legitimacy
of a vocation in the arts.
