Knox Offers two distinct worship services on Sunday mornings and one service Saturday evening. Though the styles of worship are different, the message for the week in each service is the same.
Babysitting is provided at all services.
New monthly Friday Evening service too, see below.
Sunday 9:30 am Contemporary Service - Family Life Center
This service offers music from some of the most recent Christian contemporary praise and worship songs. The informal setting of the Family Life Center allows people of all ages the opportunity to be part of high energy worship.
Sunday 11:00 am Traditional Service - Knox Sanctuary
This service is highlighted by our 32 member choir that lifts our hearts toward God through a variety of selected music. Your favorite hymns and praise choruses are accompanied by piano, organ and other orchestra instruments.
Saturday 6:30 pm Contemporary Service - Knox Sanctuary
A service centered around sharing what God has done in our lives as well as seeking His face in worship. The preaching is more of an open dialog. This format allows for addressing the needs of the attendees in ways such as special prayer, healing and sharing our testimony as the Spirit leads.
1st Friday of Every Month 7:00 PM to 8:15 PM Youth Led Service - Knox Sanctuary
Join us for this intimate, acoustic, youth led worship, time in deep prayer, and an open biblical discussion. ALL ARE WELCOME AND ENCOURAGED TO ATTEND. Snacks and refreshments are served afterward.
While many evangelism classes focus on what to do, this
class will focus on "how to do evangelism."If we are to fulfill our responsibilities as Christ commanded in the
"GREAT COMMISSION," we need to be equipped to do so.
9:30 am in McKnight Parlor
Teacher:Mike Williams
Title:"The Parables"
Every good teacher or preacher understands the significance
of illustrating a lesson with examples from every day life.This serves to make an abstract concept
relevant.
Jesus was a master story teller but he was far more than
that.His parables had a unique purpose,
to produce conviction and response.
With these parables he intended to test the crowd and force
them to commit either to be with him or against him.At the same time, he used them to unveil the
secrets of the "Kingdom
of Heaven" to his
disciples.
Come and study these parables with us at 9:30 am on Sunday mornings beginning September
13th.
-Mike Williams
11 am in McKnight Parlor
Teacher:Dean Arnold
Title: Chip Ingram\s
"The Miracle of Life Change"
From Chip Ingram\s website:"Is life change really possible? If we're
honest most of us would answer, 'No.' You'vetried numerous programs that
promise big changes, but in reality, deliver very little results. You long for
transformation, but don't know where to begin. There's good news for you, there
is hope! Life change is possible! "
Please note from Dean:
This class will run for 10
weeks--Sept 13 through Nov 15--and it is limited to 10 attendees (there are 8
openings left).There is a
workbook for purchase, it is approximately $8; if this is an issue, potential attendees may contact me.I will be purchasing the books well in
advance so they are ready.
I've facilitated this study in a
small group and it was truly life changing. The study uses Ephesians 4 as it's text. Each session will start promptly at 11:00 on Sunday morning and run until
approximately noon. There
is a 20 minute DVD presentation
each week, as well as discussion time and bible study that comes after
that.
It is my hope that people wanting
to join will be able to attend all sessions.
Remember to join us on Saturday mornings (anytime between 8 and noon) for our service group. We have plenty of small fix up and clean up jobs around the building just waiting for your creative hands to lend a hand.
Also mark your calendar for our next fellowship meeting, Friday November 16th, 7 pm.
