Jacob Perez

May 17, 2026: Novena, Chapter Two: Waiting Through Worship
Habakkuk 3: 2, 12-19

Jacob Perez, preaching

This week, we continue chapter two of the Novena series where we learn how God gives us worship as a way to wait for deliverance, for revival, for healing. We continue to journey as we did a few weeks back through the book of Habakkuk where the prophet concludes that even as it feels like the promise of God’s deliverance is unattainable, even as fear and trembling sets in, even still the prophet chooses to give God worship.

Our series is about waiting on God’s promise, working toward revival, and, for this week, worshiping even when we don’t feel like it.

I can ’t wait to see you all on Sunday - bring a friend!


The way we worship is the way we live.

Worship is the work of the people, bringing together our fullest selves in a communal act of love and gratitude.  Each voice is important; each person is valued as the Spirit draws out our authentic gifts and talents, shared in the ever-widening circle of God’s people.  We hope you’ll join us this week as we gather to worship the God of extravagant welcome.
