Why You Need To Visit A Non Denominational Church

By Anita Ortega


They are most preferred by Christians of contemporary days since they do not have complicated regulations and restrictions that characterize the mainstream churches. A non denominational church is a common phenomenon everywhere in the world today. They also seem to welcome people from various walks of life who are united by a common spiritual conviction.


Denver city of Colorado State is filled with these churches. Though they seem to be having similar ideologies, they are distinct from each other in various ways. Some have peculiar buildings while others have funny beliefs that might conflict with other believers. Structural features such as building styles and seat arrangements also do exist. Each of them also has a unique order of worshiping. Most of them also do not encourage the reading of Bible versions that are peculiar to other traditional churches.

Have you ever seen a church that is conjoined with a Jewish synagogue? That is Pathways Church for you. Situated in a building that has remained without redecoration for years, this church is quite unique and interesting to visit. Ranging from sensational preaching to modern music, a service there will leave you refreshed and yearning for more. They also speak about issues that have been neglected by many veteran preachers but they stick to Biblical doctrine.

What keeps the members together is their appreciation of diversity. They are aware that people have diverse beliefs and ideologies. They have a basic conviction that unites them though, the conviction that Jesus is the savior of the world. Other things they might do differently but they seem to have unspoken oneness.

Unlike the mainstream churches, they have no restrictions that separate them from other Christians. So long as you believe in Christ, current lifestyle does not matter as they believe the lord is able to save you and change you. It is such flexibility that has seen people like prostitutes who are considered worst sinners leaving the streets for the church. They are happy to belong to a family where Christ forgives them and no one condemns them.

The kind of music they play is also interesting. They have a wide variety. You can get samba, kwaito or rock beats among others, all under one roof. The level of expertise with which the band plays will also leave you mesmerized. They play with passion and the sound that emanates is wow!

Another interesting feature is dress code. They believe that there is no specific way in which a person should dress. Whether you are a lady in Jeans or a man in a gown it does not matter. So long as you come to worship and adore Christ, then there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ! This sometimes poses challenges since some members can misuse this freedom to put on sexually appealing clothes or revealing ones for ladies like miniskirts. However, the leaders have a way of counseling such individuals so that they do not go to extremes.

The church is therefore the place to visit when you are in a new neighborhood and you need to choose a place of worship. You will surely happy to enjoy the freshness and share the joy of the lord with other believers. They are particularly helpful in areas such as prisons and schools where people are of mixed religions. When they converge to worship together, they foster unity and peace.
