Interesting Features Of A Non Denominational Church

By Anita Ortega


Every time you feel like going to church, you are always confronted with the feeling to change environment. At times you have travelled to an area where the church you are used to has no branch. What do you do at such times? Maybe you should try a non denominational church. Here are some interesting features that make them distinctive and inviting.

In the city Denver Colorado, many such churches exist. Each of them has a feature that is peculiar to it and that distinguishes it from the rest. These features range from the structure of the buildings to the arrangement of pews and how the worship services are conducted. Another peculiar feature might be the specific Bible versions that members are allowed to use.

Have you ever seen a church that is conjoined with a Jewish synagogue? That is Pathways Church for you. Situated in a building that has remained without redecoration for years, this church is quite unique and interesting to visit. Ranging from sensational preaching to modern music, a service there will leave you refreshed and yearning for more. They also speak about issues that have been neglected by many veteran preachers but they stick to Biblical doctrine.

What keeps the members together is their appreciation of diversity. They are aware that people have diverse beliefs and ideologies. They have a basic conviction that unites them though, the conviction that Jesus is the savior of the world. Other things they might do differently but they seem to have unspoken oneness.

Thanks to these churches, the population of Christians in the world continues to increase. They have programs that accommodate even the spiritually marginalized like the prostitutes. Some are rehabilitated to become productive individuals. They end up helping others out of sin.

The music is also good in these places. Theirs are not the traditional slow hymns that characterize mainstream denominations. Contrastingly, the music is fast with modern pop tunes. The band can play a wide variety of styles such as hip hop, rock and reggae to the acclaim of the audience. There is no discrimination that some types of music are ungodly. As long as the message is godly then the song is taken to be religious.

Another interesting feature is dress code. They believe that there is no specific way in which a person should dress. Whether you are a lady in Jeans or a man in a gown it does not matter. So long as you come to worship and adore Christ, then there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ! This sometimes poses challenges since some members can misuse this freedom to put on sexually appealing clothes or revealing ones for ladies like miniskirts. However, the leaders have a way of counseling such individuals so that they do not go to extremes.

The church is therefore the place to visit when you are in a new neighborhood and you need to choose a place of worship. You will surely happy to enjoy the freshness and share the joy of the lord with other believers. They are particularly helpful in areas such as prisons and schools where people are of mixed religions. When they converge to worship together, they foster unity and peace.
