Q - What is it like?
A- Well, we haven't actually started yet but this scripture drives everything that we do -
“‘Love the Lord your God with every passion of your heart, with all the energy of your being, and with every thought that is within you.’” - Jesus, Matthew 22:37
We can draw from what we've done in the past and from where we've been.
What we see in the near future is a beautiful church that loves God with every passion, every thought. A church that meets in the round with a lot of worship. We won't be cutting worship short or relegating it to just being the set up for a message because worshipping God means a lot to us. To pour out our love upon Him and to worship Him like there's no tomorrow is how we want to roll. Short messages will be woven through the worship experience and then in a perfect world, afterwards, we see beautiful, long tables with bread and wine for communion, pizza, pasta - taking care of people's dietry restricions of course and lots of laughing. Jesus built his church at the table. We'll also walk 100 metres to the beach after many services when the weather is great so bring your toggs!
Q - What about my kids?
A - Kids are so welcome. Bloom Co is brand new so not much exists yet but it will!
Q - What denomination are you?
A - We are aligned with the Baptist Union of Australia - though our background includes 40+ years between us as worship leaders in the C3 Church movement in Sydney and Atlanta. We spent the last 4 years at Sandals Church in California, one of America's largest churches which is Southern Baptist. We have loved our previous churches and gleaned a lot from them but we're doing something that is just a bit different from everything we've done before and we can't wait to see what God does. It will be marked by a passion for the presence of God and solid teaching of the word but it will present differently to most other churches.
