The postmodern approach, sometimes characterized as Gen-X outreach, is typically set apart from traditional churches by form, setting and some of the goals of worship. The Journey room has a dorm rec room ambience. Couches, overstuffed chairs and little tables flanked by plastic chairs sit in a semicircle before a stage strewn with musical equipment. There is no lectern. A big Celtic cross is painted on one wall.
Paintings hang about the room.
Several feature a monk in a brown robe. A hundred candles flicker. An old Jacuzzi serves as baptistry. Solomon's Porch meets in a place that looks like a cross between Greg Brady's bedroom and the lounge in a nursing home, according to the church's Web site. Pantego's Axxess is lighted only by candles.
