| What to Expect |
Variety…that’s what you’ll find as our guest! One thing you should expect is a personal, uplifting worship experience. Every gathering is geared for participation. We typically worship as we live, with enthusiasm.
Life Class For All Ages
Tuesday evenings include an hour-long LIFE study that is designed to help believers grow in their walk with God. Life Class take a 2000 year old document known as the Bible and applies it to our present day lives. Personalized classes divided by age, grade, and interests serve every life stage from infants through senior adults.
Child Care
A nursery is provided for infants and toddlers. This loving, comfortable atmosphere helps show children at the earliest ages that church is a great place to be! Childcare also allows parents to worship without distraction. Special care is taken to thoroughly clean the nursery area as well as a safe environment on a weekly basis.
Children's Worship
Bible-oriented activities are provided for preschool and elementary-age children. At this level, young children are taught to sing, pray, memorize Scripture and learn important Bible truths. They are instructed and led in worship at their own levels.
Our Children’s Ministry offers church programs, services, and
facilities that are planned with your child in mind; providing them an
exciting way to learn about Jesus Christ and worship Him with their
whole hearts.
Nexus Student Ministries
Each Tuesday night our Jr High and High School students meet at 7:30 pm for a time of connecting with each other and to a God who loves them! Each gathering is geared for students to experience dynamic praise & worship, exciting dramas, and creative messages. Students are sure to leave feeling connected to God and His love!
Music and Worship Arts
At The Life Church, you will experience a diversity of musical styles. Music references in the Bible engages the full range of human emotions and we try to reflect that in our worship.
Whatever the accompaniment; inspired singing is the order of the day! Any given service may include traditional hymns, hand-clapping gospel, contemporary praise and reverent worshipful choruses. The Praise Team ministers in our Sunday Worship Celebration.
-
Celebratory - and loud! (Psalm 68:4; Psalm 150)
-
Reverent - Words like "awe", "wonder", and "amazing" are frequent themes in the Psalms
-
Fresh and current (David sang new songs! - Psalm 40:3; Psalm 33:3; Psalm 98:1)
-
Diverse - He and the people used a variety of instruments including strings, horns, even percussion! (Psalm 150:5)
-
Active - His worship sometimes involved actions such as clapping, raised hands, bowing, etc. (Psalm 22:9; Psalm 47:1; Psalm 28:2; Psalm 63:4)
Ministry Time Prayer
A special time in each worship opportunity is devoted to prayer. Needs from in and outside our church family are made known. As in the New Testament, specific prayer is offered for the sick.
At times, they will be invited to come forward to be anointed with oil
(James 5:13-16). Our prayer team and other believers will lay hands on
the sick and pray (Mark 16:18).
Giving
Our
church is operated through the tithes and other financial gifts of
members. Each gathering, our church family is given an opportunity to
bless/support The Life Church. This is not a time of pressured involvement rather a cheerful celebration of HIS goodness to us.
We believe giving the tithe (the first tenth of income) declares that God comes first. It recognizes His blessing, expresses faith, and seeks His guidance in every matter in life.
The ministries at The Life Church are supported solely by free-will giving. However, guest need not feel obligated to give.
Challenging Messages
The
high point of our services comes with the preaching of God’s Word, the
Bible, and an invitation for hearers to respond. The messages are
fervent, inspiring, and practical.
The
pastor may close with an invitation for those who want to dedicate
their lives to come forward. Those who feel a need to re-commit their
lives to Christ or to pray about other concerns are also invited to
come. Believers are encouraged to ask for the Holy Spirit to further
empower them for Christian service. Everyone is invited to come and
pray during the altar service.
Deep
emotion and excitement may or may not be demonstrated at the altars in
a service, but everyone who calls on God in faith receives something.
If
you’ve wondered what our gatherings are like, we invite you to observe
and experience God’s joy and peace that defy description. And when you
come, come expecting! Expect to feel God in a way that will uplift you and set you free. We think you’ll agree that the comfort, help, and strength He gives are better experienced than explained. Come CELEBRATE “LIFE” with us!
