Don't Let the lights and guitars fool you: this is as ancient as it gets...

 

 

Contemporary simply means "current." We're not keeping up with culture for popularity's sake, but rather for the same reason the New Testament was written in Greek: because a message to the culture must be written in its language. (Even stained glass and the pipe organ were once contemporary elements in the church service!) Hair styles and color schemes may change, but the elements that transcend culture will always remain:

  • the GATHERING of God's people to praise Him,

  • the PROCLAMATION of His Word,

  • the RESPONSES, inward and outward, of His people to His Word and

  • the SENDING of His people to bring the kingdom to earth as it is in heaven.

These are foundational to who we are, and they will always be relevant.

 

Come join God's people in our work (liturgy) of praising God each Sunday morning at 9:31 a.m. in Seabrook Hall.

 

"Then the church throughout Judea, Galilee and Samaria enjoyed a time of peace. It was strengthened; and encouraged by the Holy Spirit, it grew in numbers, living in the fear of the Lord." - Acts 9:31
