Westveiw Community Creative Arts Mission Statement
The core values of the Worship Ministry here at Westview are expressed in these three headings:
Upward
We believe that our worship is primarily for God and to God; therefore our emphasis will be on singing songs that direct our attention "upward" (Psalm 22:3; Psalm 33:1–2; Psalm 50:23; Psalm 145).
Inward
We believe worship that exalts God brings an "inward" blessing to His people, drawing them closer to Him as they sing "psalms, hymns and spiritual songs" (Colossians 3:16). Therefore, our emphasis will be on singing songs with lyrics that are full of the promises and transforming truths found in His word. (Psalm 135:3; Psalm 147:1)
Outward
We believe worship that exalts God, that blesses Him and His people, will have a positive "outward" effect on those who come into our fellowship who are investigating the claims of Christ. Therefore, our emphasis will be on music and production that is God-honoring, attractive, and culturally relevant (Psalm 40:3; 1 Corinthians 14:24–25).
