Worship Services
Our goal is to glorify the God of Heaven by making disciples on earth. Corporate worship services are opportunities for the church body to respond to God for all He has done, by experiencing the historical and modern expression of the arts in worship, with the goal that everyone present can experience the presence of God. The sermons are delivered live and are virtually the same from service to service. Regardless of age and people’s personal preference, we wish for all those in attendance at South to respond in praise, adoration, confession, and thanksgiving to the God of the universe. The music, Scripture readings, and other service elements are typically integrated around the sermon theme.
Balanced Service
(Sunday 9:30 am – Worship Center)These services have a formal setting with pew-style seating and greater levels of light for the congregation. The balanced services are led by the South Choir, Vocal Teams, band and/or the orchestra using a blend of traditional hymnody, meaningful praise and worship songs, and selections by classical and sacred composers.
Morning Service ArchivesCreative Service
(Sunday 11:00 am – Chapel)Service elements in this service are less formal and are programmed to be free-flowing with lower levels of light on the congregation. The music is predominantly guitar-driven and contemporary. The creative service music is led by the worship team putting modern instrumentation to worship songs and traditional hymns.
Morning Service ArchivesEvening Service
(Sunday 6:00 pm – Chapel)This service is very simple and traditional, singing predominantly hymns and almost always accompanied by the piano only. The teaching often extrapolates on what was taught on that Sunday morning. Occasionally the message is presented by a special guest or missionary speaking on a special topic of interest.
