| A blended format
We have a wide span of ages and tastes in our congregation, and have blended traditional and contemporary styles of worship so that all may feel welcome and comfortable in our services. The style of delivery is not designed to be a form of entertainment or theatre, but rather more gentle and family-oriented. In the early portion of the service, children are invited to sit at the front, where the minister teaches them about the Word of the Lord in terms they can understand. Later in the service, the scriptural message is adapted to young people and adults.
Instruction leading to the good of life
Some churches focus more on inspiration, while others place their emphasis on instruction. When asked where we place our priority, we answer by saying that inspiration and instruction must work in harmony to create a state of worship that is uplifting, applicable to life and fosters a sense of community.
Spiritual Focus - Practical applications to daily life
Each Sunday, the minister leading the service introduces a spiritual focus for the week based on the subject of the talks. It is referred to during the adult sermon portion of the service and includes a brief summary of the lesson and practical suggestions for how you might use the spiritual message of the sermon in the workplace, at home, in your marriage, with parenting, friends, etc.
