Liturgy holds a deep and meaningful place in the history of the Church. Rooted in centuries of Christian tradition, liturgical worship is marked by repetition, reflection, and reverence. Week after week, its rhythms are designed to impress the truths of Scripture on the hearts of believers—not just through words, but through collective participation. It invites the entire congregation to engage in worship with intentionality, unity, and awe.

Though our worship today often takes different forms, there are beautiful and formative elements within traditional liturgy that are worth revisiting. While we may not practice liturgy weekly, gathering once a month allows us to pause and embrace this ancient rhythm—to learn from it, be shaped by it, and encounter God in a fresh yet time-honored way.

We invite you to join us before Life Groups for a special time of liturgical worship. This is an opportunity to center your heart, reflect on God’s Word, and participate in the richness of a tradition that has shaped generations of believers.

If you serve in Grace Kids, we especially encourage you to come and worship beforehand—this gathering is for you, too.

Come and experience the beauty of worship that is both old and new.

Liturgy has a rich history for the Church. Liturgy emphasizes repetition week after week that impresses things of scripture on the heart of the believer and involving the whole congregation in worship. There are beautiful aspects we often overlook in our worship today that we want to take time and focus on. We won't get the full effect since we don't do this on a regular basis, but it's a tradition with beauty we can still learn a lot from. 

Join us to worship in an old and new way before life groups. If you’re volunteering in Grace Kids we highly encourage you to come so you can worship before volunteering.

We will be hosting a study on Justin Earley's Habits of the Household. Justin's goal is to help families discover simple habits and easy-to-implement daily rhythms that will help you find meaning beyond the chaos of family life as you create a home where kids and parents alike practice how to love God and each other. This study is designed more for parents with kids. Kids of any age living at home. But all are welcome so we as a church can support and help each other. Many of the habits and process is helpful for all families regardless of makeup and who's living in the home. We all need habits that form us more like Jesus and less like us.

Childcare and dinner will be provided. We will meet most in March. Please let us know which night of the week works before for you! We will pick whatever works for most people. There will be a cost of $50 per individual/couple to help cover costs. (But please do not let the cost prevent you from participating! Scholarships are available!)
