Before it began in 1997, its members studied what the Bible said about how to hold church services. Musical instruments supplying both percussion and melody are approved by Scripture. Any person can speak T he church decided to run its worship services in line with what it felt it found in Scripture. It limited its sermons to 10 minutes long. And it limited the time for contributions by others to five minutes.
Any church member has the right to select the preacher.
The member just confirms a free date with the senior elder, who keeps the preaching list. The church pastor usually preaches once a month. Often the person selected is a woman. In fact once, six women were selected to preach in a seven-week period. The rest of the program is taken by the church members and visitors.
