WHAT TO EXPECT

What to Expect

Teaching - Expository and Applicable

All of our teaching is centered on the Bible, in both our Sunday School lesson and our preaching. Our sermon series typically go through books of the Bible in their entirety to see how the Gospel of Jesus unfolds throughout all of Scripture.

Our Sunday School is designed to allow the church to explore a wide range of topics and aspects of our faith which may not be addressed regularly through preaching, such as theological studies, Old Testament and New Testament Surveys, Church History, and the Christian life.

Worship - Simple and Rich

Our liturgy—a call to worship, a confession of sin, an assurance of pardon, and a benediction—allows us to rehearse the Gospel each Sunday. We sing songs, both ancient and modern, which make much of Christ’s cross and glory.

We partake in Communion on the second Sunday of each month.

Family-Integrated Worship

We are a Family-Integrated church, meaning that we have no formal children’s class during the 11am worship services. Our heart behind this model comes from Deuteronomy 6:7, “You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise.” We believe it is a parent’s example and guidance that shepherds a child’s heart in the Lord. It is our hope that the sermon message would be discussed between you and your child throughout the week to aid in their own understanding of the Gospel.

We offer a nursery for nursing mothers and a nursery ministry for children ages 4 and under. The nursery ministry is an offering to the parents who would like to take advantage of it but is in no way a requirement. The nursery is supplied with toys and Christ-centered books for young children, and the sermon can still be heard in the nursery through the audio live steam.

Our Children’s Sunday School at 9:30am allows young children to hear a Bible lesson, sing a song based on the lesson, pray, and enjoy playing with the other children. Older children are encouraged to attend and participate in the adult Sunday School class with their parents.

Community - Genuine and Grace-Filled

We offer Men’s and Women’s Bibles Studies to cultivate Gospel-centered relationships, deepen our understanding of God’s Word, and encourage one another as we walk with the Lord.

We host a potluck-style meal following the service on the first and third Sundays of every month to continue our time of fellowship together. If you are visiting for the first time on a Fellowship Meal Sunday, don’t feel obligated to bring anything, but please feel free to stay and enjoy lunch and fellowship with us.
