Reflection
“We are already in union. We are already experiencing intimacy. God doesn’t leave, we do.”
• Chuck DeGroat
I was lookin' for love in all the wrong places
Lookin' for love in too many faces
Searchin' their eyes, lookin' for traces
Of what I'm dreamin' of
Hopin' to find a friend and a lover
I'll bless the day I discover
Another heart - lookin' for love
• From “Looking For Love” by Johnny Lee (1980)
!
Preparation
Use the time before the service as an opportunity to prepare for worship, quiet your heart, and receive Christ. Feel free
to read the reflections above. As a courtesy, please turn off your cell phone, beeper, iPod, or other noisemaker at this time.
Welcome
The ancient Celts believed that there were “thin places” on this earth; places where you could experience the
very presence of God. Worship is a “thin place” between heaven and earth where we meet with God. When we gather
for congregational worship we enter into the very presence of the Living God. No matter who you are or what you have
done, God, by his grace, is able to change your life forever. Meet with him at this “thin place”: worship.

Call to Worship *
Psalm 96:1-2
Sing to the LORD a new song;
sing to the LORD, all the earth.
Sing to the LORD, praise his name;
proclaim his salvation day after day.
Prayer of Invocation *

The Call to Worship is an
invitation into the unique activity of
worship. Our primary activity in
the worship service is to participate
in the gift exchange of worship
itself, by hearing God’s Word, by
offering prayers and praise, and by
receiving spiritual nourishment
offered at the Lord’s table.
The term invocation implies that
the congregation invokes, or “calls
upon,” God. In it, we express our
longing for God as well as deep
dependence and humility.
All my life long I had panted, for a drink from some cool spring
That I hoped would quench the burning, of the thirst I felt within
!
!
Feeding on the filth around me, until my strength was almost gone
Longed my soul for something better, only still to hunger on
!
!
CHORUS
Hallelujah! He has found me
What my soul so long has craved
Jesus satisfies all my longings
Through his blood now I am saved!
Poor I was, and sought for riches, something that would satisfy
But the dust I gathered round me, only mocked my soul’s sad cry
Well of water, ever springing, Bread of Life so rich and free
Untold wealth that never faith, my Redeemer is to me
• Words + Music: Clara T. Williams and Ralph E. Hudson (1875)

First Reading *
Hebrews 12:4-11
4 In
your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding
your blood. 5 And have you completely forgotten this word of encouragement
that addresses you as a father addresses his son? It says,
“My son, do not make light of the Lord’s discipline,
and do not lose heart when he rebukes you,
6 because the Lord disciplines the one he loves,
and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son.”
As the Bible is the primary means
by which God speaks to and edifies
his people, we read and listen to
the Scriptures together in worship.
In ancient Israel and the early
church, services of worship were
organized for the public reading of
scripture – a practice vital to
building up the community of faith.
7
Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as his children. For what children are not disciplined by their father?
If you are not disciplined—and everyone undergoes discipline—then you are not legitimate, not true sons and
daughters at all. 9 Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How
much more should we submit to the Father of spirits and live! 10 They disciplined us for a little while as they thought
best; but God disciplines us for our good, in order that we may share in his holiness. 11 No discipline seems pleasant at
the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been
trained by it.

“Jesus, I My Cross Have Taken” *
Jesus, I my cross have taken, all to leave and follow thee
Destitute, despised, forsaken, thou from hence my all shall be
Perish every fond ambition, all I’ve sought or hoped or known
Yet how rich is my condition! God and heaven are still my own
!
Let the world despise and leave me, they have left my Savior, too
Human hearts and looks deceive me; thou art not, like them, untrue
O while thou dost smile upon me, God of wisdom, love, and might
Foes may hate and friends disown me, show thy face and all is bright
!
Go, then, earthly fame and treasure, come disaster, scorn and pain
In thy service, pain is pleasure, with thy favor, loss is gain
I have called thee Abba Father, I have stayed my heart on thee
Storms may howl, and clouds may gather; all must work for good to me
!
Haste thee on from grace to glory, armed by faith, and winged by prayer
Heaven’s eternal days before thee, God’s own hand shall guide us there
Soon shall close thy earthly mission, soon shall pass thy pilgrim days
Hope shall change to glad fruition, faith to sight, and prayer to praise
• Words: Henry Lyte (1824)
• Music: Bill Moore (2001)

Why do we sing in church? As
God's people gather for worship, we
focus our attention on God and
away from ourselves by singing
together. We respond with
thanksgiving to God, because we
have hope. And we sing because it is
the best and most complete
response that we can utter.

Call to Confession
Please kneel for the confession
In spite of God’s love for us and gift of love to us, we often act in destructive
and hateful ways. We close our hearts to God and disobey God’s law. Together
let us confess our sin.
!
Corporate Confession
0

4
Because sin is so pervasive in both
our corporate and individual lives,
Christians and non-Christians are
called to come before the Father
with honesty and transparency,
confessing our brokenness and
asking for both forgiveness and
healing through Jesus Christ…
…we confess corporately to show
our unity even in our brokenness.
Awesome and compassionate God,
you have loved us with unfailing, self-giving mercy,
but we have not loved you.
You constantly call us, but we do not listen.
You ask us to love, but we walk away from neighbors in need,
wrapped in our own concerns.
We condone evil, prejudice, warfare, and greed.
God of grace, as you come to us in mercy,
we repent in spirit and in truth, admit our sin,
and gratefully receive your forgiveness
through Jesus Christ, our Redeemer.
!!
Private Confession
!
Assurance of Forgiveness *
Psalm 130:3-4, 7-8 (NRSV) If you, O LORD, should mark iniquities,
Lord, who could stand?
But there is forgiveness with you,
so that you may be revered.
We confess individually in order
to own our failing toward God and
toward humankind in thought,
word and deed.
Christ has given the Church
authority to declare forgiveness
of sins in his name. Because of
this, when the liturgist proclaims
that your sins are forgiven, you can
know that Christ agrees.
!
O Israel, hope in the LORD!
For with the LORD there is steadfast love,
and with him is great power to redeem.
It is he who will redeem Israel
from all its iniquities.

VERSE 1
Come ye sinners poor and needy
Weak and wounded sick and sore
Jesus ready stands to save you
Full of pity, love and power

I will arise and go to Jesus
He will embrace me in his arms
In the arms of my dear Savior
Oh there are ten thousand charms

Come ye thirsty, come and welcome
God's free bounty glorify
True belief and true repentance
Every grace that brings you nigh

Lost and ruined by the fall
If you tarry ’til you're better
You will never come at all

Prayers of the People
After each petition of the prayer, there will be a time to pray silently.
Please join us in the following refrain:
Leader: Lord, in your mercy,
People: hear our prayer.
In response to God's having
gathered us in worship, we offer
our petitions to him for the
church, the nation, the world, the
city and those who are suffering.
The Lord's Prayer Based on Matthew 6:9-13
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us
today our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and for ever. Amen.
Passing the Peace
Community Updates
At this time children grades 1st-5th are dismissed for CityKids children's church.
Prayer of Illumination
!
!
!
6.
Passing the peace is a tradition
rooted in Scripture that embodies
our identity as peacemakers (Matt.
5:9; 2 Cor. 5:20) and trains ours
hearts, hands, and tongues in the
ways of peace.
The prayer of illumination
acknowledges the Spirit’s work in
this part of worship by requesting
God’s Spirit to act through the
reading and preaching of Scripture.
The prayer is offered for both the
preacher and the listener, for both
the speaking and the hearing of the
Word.

Second Reading
Genesis 29:15-35
15 Laban
said to [Jacob], “Just because you are a relative of mine, should you work for me for nothing? Tell me what
your wages should be.”
16 Now
Laban had two daughters; the name of the older was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel. 17 Leah
had weak eyes, but Rachel had a lovely figure and was beautiful. 18 Jacob was in love with Rachel and said, “I’ll work
for you seven years in return for your younger daughter Rachel.”
19
Laban said, “It’s better that I give her to you than to some other man. Stay here with me.” 20 So Jacob served
seven years to get Rachel, but they seemed like only a few days to him because of his love for her.
21
Then Jacob said to Laban, “Give me my wife. My time is completed, and I want to make love to her.”
22
So Laban brought together all the people of the place and gave a feast. 23 But when evening came, he took his
daughter Leah and brought her to Jacob, and Jacob made love to her. 24 And Laban gave his servant Zilpah to his
daughter as her attendant.
25
When morning came, there was Leah! So Jacob said to Laban, “What is this you have done to me? I served you for
Rachel, didn’t I? Why have you deceived me?”
26
Laban replied, “It is not our custom here to give the younger daughter in marriage before the older one. 27 Finish
this daughter’s bridal week; then we will give you the younger one also, in return for another seven years of work.”
28
And Jacob did so. He finished the week with Leah, and then Laban gave him his daughter Rachel to be his wife.
Laban gave his servant Bilhah to his daughter Rachel as her attendant. 30 Jacob made love to Rachel also, and his
love for Rachel was greater than his love for Leah. And he worked for Laban another seven years.
29
31
When the Lord saw that Leah was not loved, he enabled her to conceive, but Rachel remained childless. 32 Leah
became pregnant and gave birth to a son. She named him Reuben, for she said, “It is because the Lord has seen my
misery. Surely my husband will love me now.”
33
She conceived again, and when she gave birth to a son she said, “Because the Lord heard that I am not loved, he
gave me this one too.” So she named him Simeon.
34
Again she conceived, and when she gave birth to a son she said, “Now at last my husband will become attached
to me, because I have borne him three sons.” So he was named Levi.
35
She conceived again, and when she gave birth to a son she said, “This time I will praise the Lord.” So she named
him Judah.Then she stopped having children.
Sermon
The Gospel According to Jacob and Joseph, Part 3
“The Love and Discipline of God” – Genesis 29:15-35
Rev. Brad Schmidt, Lead Pastor
A sermon is not just teaching for
living; it is mainly a time when
Christ encounters his people
through his Word.

Affirmation of Faith *
The Apostles’ Creed
I believe in God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth;
and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy
Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified,
dead, and buried. He descended into hell. The third day he rose again from
the dead. He ascended into heaven, and is seated on the right hand of God
the Father Almighty. From there he will come to judge the living and the
dead.
H
When we affirm our
faith together, it reminds us that
we are part of an ancient and
global faith. This basic creed of
Christian churches, as most
familiarly known, is called the
Apostles' Creed. It has received this
title because of its great antiquity;
it dates from very early times in the
Church, a half century or so from
the last writings of the New
Testament.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic* church, the communion of
saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting.
Amen.
!
Invitation to the Table
Words of Institution
1 Corinthians 11:23-26
On the night on which Jesus was betrayed, he sat at supper with his disciples. While they were eating, he took a
piece of bread, said a blessing, broke it, and gave it to them with the words, “This is my body. It is broken for you.
Do this to remember me.” Later he took the cup, saying, “This cup is God’s covenant, sealed with my blood. Drink
from it, all of you, to remember me.”
For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.
!
!
*The word "catholic" refers not to the Roman Catholic Church, but to the universal church of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Distribution of the Bread + Cup
CityChurch welcomes all baptized Christians – those who are trusting in Jesus
Christ for salvation and who are members of congregations that proclaim the
gospel – to receive the Holy Communion (also called the Lord’s Supper, or
the Eucharist) with us. We will be coming forward to receive Communion.
When you come forward, tear a piece of the bread, and then dip it into the
cup.
Please note that we use wine in Communion. If you cannot receive wine, nonalcoholic white grape juice is also available. If you are not able to receive The
Lord’s Supper, please use this time to meditate on one of the prayers below.

“The Eucharist is the definitive
action practiced in the Christian
community that keeps Jesus Christ
before us as the Savior of the world
and our Savior, and ourselves as
sinners in need of being saved. The
Eucharist is the sacramental act
that pulls us into actual material
participation with Christ (eating
and drinking bread and wine) as he
gives his very life “for us and for
our salvation” (cf., the Nicene
Creed)... The Eucharist puts Jesus
in his place: dying on the cross and
giving us that sacrificed life. And it
puts us in our place: opening our
hands and receiving the remission
of our sins, which is our salvation.”
• Eugene Peterson, Christ Plays
in Ten Thousand Places
Prayers of Meditation for Those Not Communing
Prayer for Those Searching for Truth
Prayer of Belief
Lord Jesus, you claim to be the way, the truth, and
the life. Grant that I might be undaunted by the cost
of following you as I consider the reasons for doing
so. If what you claim is true, please guide me, teach
me, and open to me the reality of who you are. Give
me an understanding of you that is coherent,
convincing, and that leads to the life that you
promise. Amen.
Lord Jesus, I admit that I am weaker and more sinful
than I ever before believed, but through you I am
more loved and accepted than I ever dared hope. I
thank you for paying my debt, bearing my
punishment on the cross, and offering forgiveness
and new life. Knowing that you have been raised
from the dead, I turn from my sins and receive you
as Savior and Lord. Amen.
Prayer for Those Overcome with Sin
Lord Jesus Christ, grant that I may see in you the
fulfillment of all my need and may turn from every
false satisfaction to feed on you, the true and living
bread. Enable me to lay aside the sin that clings so
closely and run with perseverance the race set before
me, looking to you, the pioneer and perfecter of my
faith. Amen.
Prayer for Covenant Children (Not Yet Confirmed)
Lord Jesus Christ, thank you for placing me inside
your family, the church. Help me more and more to
know you, to love you and to follow you as your
faithful disciple. Amen.

Gifts + Offerings
Christ calls us, to give generously as a sign of gratitude for how much he has given us. Our response to his grace
enables us to give sacrificially of ourselves to one another and the work of Christ’s Kingdom. Your gift is an act
of personal worship to God in response to his grace in your life. The allocation of your time and money to God’s
service should be a byproduct of prayer and consultation with other Christians to whom you are accountable.
If you’re new to CityChurch, or are exploring Christianity, you’re under no obligation to give. However, if you call
CityChurch your “home church,” consider allocating a significant portion of your tithe and offering to the
community where you invest most of your time, and where others are investing in you.
The offering box is located in the back of sanctuary. For your convenience, one-time or recurring gifts can be
made online at: www.citychurchftl.com/giving. You may also give via text message by simply texting a dollar
amount to 954.880.EASY (3279) and following the instructions.
Communion Song – “How Deep The Father's Love For Us” *
How deep the Father's love for us, how vast beyond all measure
That he should give his only Son, to make a wretch his treasure!
How great the pain of searing loss, the Father turns his face away
As wounds which mar the Chosen One, bring many sons to glory
!
Behold the man upon a cross, my sin upon his shoulders
Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice, call out among the scoffers
It was my sin that held him there, until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life; I know that it is finished
!
I will not boast in anything: no gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ, his death and resurrection
Why should I gain from his reward? I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart, his wounds have paid my ransom

VISION
THE VISION OF CITYCHURCH is the Spiritual, Social, and Cultural renewal of Fort Lauderdale.
MISSION
WE SEEK TO BE the very presence of Christ in Fort Lauderdale by cultivating a community of Faith, Hope + Love.
VALUES
Faith
Hope
Love
Because we are a Community
of Faith we value:
Because we are a Community
of Hope we value:
Because we are a Community
of Love we value:
The Gospel. The Gospel is the only
hope for humankind. The message
of the Gospel is that Christ has done
what is necessary to bring us into a
relationship with God. We keep it at
the center of everything.
The City. Christianity has always
thrived in an urban context. We love
Fort Lauderdale, and want to live,
work, celebrate, raise our families,
enjoy, and serve this great city.
Life in Community. The Trinity is at
the core of Christian truth; namely
that God himself has always been in
community – the Father and Son
and Spirit all loving, giving and
sharing with one another. We
acknowledge that we need each
other, and that the life Jesus offers
works only in connection with a
community of faith.
Mission & Movement. Because God
is the one who initiates relationships,
and sent his Son to seek and save
people, we will pursue relationships
with people in hope that they will be
restored to their Father. CityChurch
does not exist as an end in itself –
we desire to be an incubator for
church planting throughout South
Florida, in that when we grow, we
will be very intentional about
spinning off and beginning new
congregations throughout our city.
Each of these churches will partner
with us in pursuing the goal of
spiritual, social, and cultural renewal.
12.
Arts & Industries. We believe that
the good news of the Gospel is
about God’s redemption of this
fallen world and its cultural
expressions. We are a church that
welcomes, encourages, and equips
artists of every medium... and
therefore we will seek to offer artists
opportunities to show or perform
their work, providing
encouragement for them to grow
and develop as artists. We also
believe that the good news of the
Gospel impacts work and the
marketplace. We will encourage men
and women to use their positions,
talents, and gifts to the best of their
abilities, and to the betterment of
our city.
Social Healing. The Gospel is the
good news of Christ’s kingdom.
CityChurch seeks to partner with
local social service agencies that
assist the suffering in our own local
community. Furthermore, we will
pray for sensitivity to the mercy
needs of our community and will
seek to serve our neighbors out of
Christ’s love.
