What to Expect

By God's grace I have had the pleasure of serving as the Pastor at Park South Loop for twelve years. This is truly a remarkable Church family. At the heart of this church is the good news of Jesus Christ's death and resurrection for the forgiveness of our sin. We are passionately committed to pursuing Christ together, growing in our knowledge of the Scriptures, deepening our resolve to stand confidently in our Christian faith, and bringing the love of Christ with us to every corner of this city. We invite you to join us on that awesome mission.

Arriving: If it's your first time with us, here is a bit of what to expect. Our Sunday gathering is at 10:00am weekly. Services are typically 80 minutes. We actually rent out a large facility that during the week is a Union Hall. This building has served us well not only because of the space, but also because of the extended parking lot, which makes arriving and parking easy. This close to downtown, a parking lot that size is uncommon.

Children & Youth: Our fantastic children's ministry, which serves infants through fifth grade, meets during the service as well.  You'll see a big 'Children's Ministry' sign when you walk into the main auditorium where you can check your kids in and meet our children's ministry leaders. Our Middle School children and older are invited to stay in the main service on Sundays, and to join the Youth Group that meets during the week.

Music & Preaching: Typically our Sunday gathering will have music led by our wonderful Music Team. Songs are specifically chosen that are both doctrinally sound, and a combination of new worship music and old hymns.  We typically preach verse by verse through the entire Bible, so as to let the Bible speak for itself.  Every sermon is aimed at helping us truly understand the what the text says, working it deeply into our heart to reveal where we might be living out of alignment with God's Word, and then applying it into our lives in very practical ways. You're welcome to checkout sermons on our Youtube Channel before you arrive to get a sense for the content.

Dress: Most folks dress pretty casual, but some are more comfortable dressing up for Church. You're welcome to join us on Sunday morning and find a home and community!

If you're newer to our Church, we would love to connect with you. When you arrive at Church on Sunday, swing by our Guest Services table and let them know it's your first time. You'll receive a gift bag with a small gift from us as well as information about our Church. And if you'd like to connect with somebody from our team beforehand, use the form at the bottom of this page.
