CONFESSION OF SIN –

Almighty God who alone is worthy of all praise and honor,

we confess that we are often not consumed with You

but are occupied with lesser things:

our own comfort, our safety, our reputation…

Forgive us for not desiring the fame of your Name.

We are sorry for the ways that we have been ashamed of the gospel.

We repent for the ways we spend our time, talents, and treasures on ourselves.

We lament the callousness of our hearts to the plight of the lost…

And do not lead us into temptation,

But deliver us from the evil one.

For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever.

Amen.

Incline your ear, and come to me;

hear, that your soul may live.

Christ Jesus,

who, though he was in the form of God,

did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped,

by taking the form of a servant,

being born in the likeness of men.

And being found in human form,

he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death,

even death on a cross.
