What to Expect
Welcome to King's Church!
We'd love for you to join us for Lord's Day Worship gatherings. Here are some items to give you an idea of what to expect.
Q: Is there a dress code?
A: No, we invite you to come as you are. You'll see everything from suits and ties to jeans and polos.
Q: How long is a worship service, and what is it like?
A: Our Lord's Day morning worship gathering is typically two hours. Our time usually opens with one of the men of the church reading a Psalm, followed by a time of corporate prayer, singing, and giving. We then hear an expositional sermon from God's Word, followed by more singing, and the observance of the Lord's Supper.
While the Lord’s Supper is for all believers, we believe that the administration of the supper is connected inseparably to the maintaining of church discipline in the local church (1 Cor. 5:11; 1 Cor. 10:14-22; 2 Thes. 3:10, 14-15). As such, the partaking of the Lord's Supper is open to members only, or by invitation to those who are members in good standing in a church of like faith and practice with whom we hold common fellowship.
​
Following service, we enjoy a fellowship meal together (provided by the church).
Q: What is your music like?
A: Music is a powerful and important part of Christian life and worship, and we want our corporate singing as a church to align with the purpose for which God intends it. The apostle Paul commanded the church to be "addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs" (Eph. 5:19). For this reason, we aim to ensure that the voices of the saints are the prominent instruments on display as we worship together. It's a wonderful thing to hear the voices of our brothers and sisters echoing in our ears as we praise the Lord with one heart and one voice.
We aim to ensure that our songs are first and foremost filled with rich, biblical truth which will inform our minds and encourage our hearts. Most of our songs are sung from paper hymnals found under each seat, and we also introduce new songs on paper handouts from time-to-time.
We are jealous to maintain an atmosphere in which we are worshiping God together as one body, as opposed to each individual having his or her own, isolated, emotional experience. But this is not to say that our worship ought not be vibrant, and our emotions engaged, as we lift holy hands together in worshipping our Savior!
Q: What about my kids?
A: Well, bring them along, of course! We believe in worshipping the Lord together as one body with our families, so our children join us for our worship gathering. We have a space for nursing mothers or children who need to step out. While it's completely normal for parents to step out as needed, rest assured that the noise of normal parenting life is a sound we love to hear!
