Most visitors come for the eleven o'clock service. That is the one to pick if you are new. But Sunday is longer than a single service. It opens at eight in the morning, online, and there is a second gathering at nine in the building before the main service begins.
The shape of the day surprises people. This post is here so you can plan around it, or skip the parts that do not fit.
Eight o'clock: Morning Glory, on Facebook
The day opens online. Evangelist Jackie leads an hour of worship and prayer from eight to nine in the morning, on the church's Facebook page. You can watch from bed, from the car, from anywhere with a phone signal.
If you have a job that has you on the road before the service, this is the part of Sunday you can keep. The stream runs live, and the recordings stay up afterwards.
Nine o'clock: four classes at once
At nine, the building opens for four classes: New Convert, Women's Ministry, Men on the Move, and Focus on the Family.
Men on the Move is Barbershop Talk: Men on the Move, a Bible teaching series that runs the way the name suggests. Men sit down together and work through the text, and the conversation sounds the way men actually talk. The room is open to any man who wants to be there.
Focus on the Family runs at the same hour, set up for the parents and the kids. It is meant to overlap with Men on the Move, so a family can walk in together and split once they are inside, then meet back up in the sanctuary at eleven.
New Convert and Women's Ministry meet in their own rooms at the same hour.
If you are coming on your own, or you are not sure which class fits you, just come to the eleven o'clock service. The nine o'clock hour is a bonus, not a prerequisite.
Eleven o'clock: Sunday worship
The main service starts at eleven. Singing first, then Dr. HB Holmes teaches from the Bible, and the offering happens somewhere in the middle. Near the end there is time set aside for anyone who wants to be prayed for. You can take part in any of that or none of it.
This is the service we stream live. If you would rather watch first and visit later, the live stream is on the watch live page. Recordings stay up there too.
What if I can only come to one thing?
Come to eleven. That is the service the building is built around, and the one Dr. Holmes preaches. Everything else on a Sunday is extra, and the Sunday you bring is the Sunday we are glad to have.
If you want to plan the rest of the visit, what to expect on your first Sunday covers parking, what to wear, and how long the morning usually runs.
