What to Expect
Okay, so trying to describe a church experience is pretty tough. Nevertheless, we'll try and give it a shot and when you visit you can tell us how close we were.
When you show up at the Summit, we want you to feel comfortable. Don't worry about dressing to impress; you'll see some with jeans, some with jackets, some in high heels, and some in flip flops. Musically, the worship is upbeat and modern (think Hillsong United, Jesus Culture, Chris Tomlin, Gateway, Desperation Band), but we like to blend in the occasional hymn as well.
We use a lot of PowerPoint and visuals with our messages ... we've found that helps the main points stick in people's minds. The sermons are down to earth and practical; we're not the type of people who scream until veins pop out of our foreheads while we pound the podium. That's just not us. We'd rather take Biblical princples and show how they apply in our busy lives today. Because we're preaching to ourselves, too.
We'll always have coffee in the back, there will usually be a few kids running around, and you'll hear lots of laughter as Christians who love life and each other catch up on what God's been doing in their lives. The Sunday morning service usually lasts about 90 minutes, Sunday and Wednesday nights are a bit shorter.
Our main goal is to be able to grow together as real people, each of us moving one step closer to the person God wants us to be. So ... what to expect? Contemporary music, relevant teachings, and a family of people who can't wait to meet you. See you at the Summit?
