What are your worship services like?
Traditional Worship and i believe are distinctly different styles of worship. In Traditional Worship, we sing some hymns, greet each other, listen to a sermon, share our prayer concerns, take up offering, and close with more hymn singing. On the first Sunday of each month, we serve Communion.
i believe is a more free-flowing and unpredictable type of worship service—it’s intentionally surprising each week! We do begin by singing together, and the service usually includes a brief message and an interactive response time in which we take the message and apply it to our own lives through journaling, discussion, hands-on projects, or other responses. Then there’s more singing, an offering, and plenty of good coffee. It’s a new way to worship. Give it a try.
