​WORSHIP

As a community centered on Jesus Christ, crucified, risen, and living among us, worship is at the heart of our purpose and identity.  In worship, we imagine and reimagine our individual and collective lives in light of a love that is stronger than death.

Grounded in the Episcopal Church, one of the historic Christian denominations, our worship is shaped by well-worn patterns of singing, prayer, engaging with sacred texts, and responding in faith — all reimagined for our time and place.
​
While the particulars may change, we join in worship time after time seeking:

• Wisdom for our lives in the sacred stories of God
• Encounter with God through prayer, music, and sacraments (traditions and practices based on the teachings of Jesus)
• Transformation in our lives and in the world, as the Spirit of God awakens us to love and moves us to action​ in Jesus' name ​

​We invite you to gather with us for worship each fourth Sunday of the month at 7:00 p.m. as we imagine a world renewed by God's love and power.

OUR COMMITMENTS

​Jesus at the Center​
Jesus Christ is at the heart of our common life. His ministry to the oppressed and outcast models for us a life of compassion and grace. His crucifixion and resurrection fill us with courage and hope. His risen life made known to the first disciples is revealed here and now as we gather in his name and seek his face in stranger, friend, and foe.

Beauty + Diversity
The ancient Hebrew songwriter called on God's people to "worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness" (Psalm 96:9).  What does the "beauty of holiness" look like? Imagine Church is committed to answering that question through expressions of music, visual art, and spoken word that reflect the diversity of God's people. As we offer to God our gifts of creativity and imagination, God opens the eyes of our hearts to see the truest beauty that is: the Image of God dwelling in every human. 

Artistry + Innovation
Videography is more than a mechanism for content delivery; it is an art form unto itself.  Over the centuries, the church has played a significant role in the evolution of art, music, and literature. The church reformers of the 15th and 16th centuries embraced the printing press to spread the message of God's grace in the language of the people. Imagine Church is committed to utilizing the best and most up-to-date practices and technologies possible to lead the church in harnessing the power of videography for digital worship in the 21st century. 

"In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. (Acts 2:17)
