Each Sunday you’ll experience:
- Christ-centered worship
- Practical, Bible-based teaching
- Friendly people who are glad you’re here
- Safe, engaging environments for kids and students
- Opportunities to build authentic relationships and grow in your faith
One Church. Two Worship Environments.
Whether you’re drawn to contemporary worship or the richness of traditional worship, you’ll hear the same biblical teaching and experience the same mission and heart of Berean.
Both worship environments are rooted in God’s Word and share the same teaching each Sunday. The difference is the worship style, atmosphere, and format, allowing you to choose the environment that best fits you and your family.
Modern Worship
Sundays | 9:30 & 11 AM | Worship Center
Our Modern Services feature contemporary worship led by a full band with guitars, keys, drums, and vocals in a spacious auditorium setting. Both services include live worship and live preaching, creating an engaging and energetic worship experience.
This environment has a relaxed atmosphere and is especially popular with families and those who enjoy contemporary worship.
Classic Worship
Sundays | 8:15 & 9:30 AM | Sanctuary
If you appreciate the richness of traditional worship, our Classic Services offer a more intimate setting featuring congregational hymn singing, choir, orchestra, and, throughout the year, special music from ensembles such as our handbell choir.
The 8:15 service includes live preaching, while the 9:30 service features the same sermon by video. The order of worship follows a more traditional format, creating a reflective worship experience that many have come to love.
Same Church. Same Message.
No matter which worship environment you choose, you’ll experience the same gospel-centered teaching, the same commitment to God’s Word, and the same mission of helping people follow Jesus.
