What

Mid-size, with 322 members. What's
our worship like? We
have diverse
worship experiences so that people can experience God in ways that
speak most directly to them. We offer traditional,
contemporary,
and emergent styles, but all of our worship has a relaxed feel. Visit
our worship
page for
details and
times. What
about theological
perspective? We
value, and have, members and friends who cover the range of
theological positions from conservative to liberal. Morning
Star's overall position is a moderate one, and we are committed to the
belief that it is God in Jesus Christ who calls, transforms, and gives
grace to grow and transform. We worship, teach, and invite
people into a place so that the Holy Spirit might work in their
lives. Our job is not to obtain assent to a theological
position. So we don't do that here. We do maintain
that
faith is not only a "personal" thing, but it
involves
our interaction with all of creation in mercy and justice.
