Session 2
The training objectives for this session are:-
To help you:
Discover that the destination of true worship is God’s presence – not a ceremony.
Discover that there is a spiritual thirst in each one of us that can only be quenched in God’s presence.
Discover that God’s presence is not an unreachable dream or an unattainable Goal.
Discover that true worship is not a ceremony or homage, it is mutual relationship.
At the end of this session you will discover that: people can replicate everything else they may have seen others do in a worship service but, the one thing that cannot be replicated is the presence of God.

2. How would you tell whether God was present in a worship service or not?
3. Does the fear or concern for the people around you control the way you express yourself in worship?
4. What has impacted your life the most from today’s teaching or group discussion?
