We believe that God not only created us in His image but also created us to Worship. We are called to reflect Him through our creative spirit and to redeem the culture around us through our work. The church has historically been an advocate for the use of the arts in worshiping God and in sharing His love with the world. We desire to cultivate this within future generations of those who serve Him.
Worship Teams
Students who lead worship on campus go through a one and a half year mentorship with the Director of Creative Arts in the areas of:
- Leadership
- Worship
- Band Leading
- Technical Arts
- Personal Growth
We teach our students that worship is both a lifestyle and a calling from God. Students can be involved in Worship Arts Ministries through classes, earning SAO credits and becoming a part of local church ministries.
