How We Worship at Zion
Reverence & Joy
We worship with both reverence and joy because God is both perfectly holy and graciously merciful. Each worship service is meant to be a journey to the cross to respond to His grace. Every journey will be different, and each service will call us to a place of sorrow for humanity and raise us to a place of delight in Jesus Christ.
​
Old & New
We use both old and new elements within the worship service because God is not bound by time. You'll sing old and ancient hymns, spiritually rich favorites from previous decades, and new songs of worship that you might have never heard before. Through all of this, the truth of God's Word remains at the center.
​
Hearing & Responding
We proclaim a message that is focused on Christ’s finished work and reflects our uncompromising stance on Scripture. You will hear God's Word at the center of our preaching and worship as a church. Every worshiper is called to be changed and respond to the truth of God's Word!
Worship Principles
Everything we do in worship responds to the grace of Jesus Christ in a biblical way. Our framework for Sunday services centers on Christ and moves through a biblical journey to the cross. This pattern for praise and worship is about receiving and responding to God's grace- delivery of the forgiveness of sins by grace through faith in Jesus.
