Worship is a process which intentionally tries to help stimulate people’s self awareness and self actualization.  We want it to inspire and call forth connections to our deepest values.  Since the hope is to help people ‘transform’ into their best selves – and – since we know this kind of transformation happens at very deep levels of character, it is important that worship be crafted to reach people beyond incidental, surface-level ideas.

There is a rhythm that is created in worship by weaving together music, words, silence, ritual, etc.   It is intentional that we try to use rhythm and ritual to create a sense of familiarity.  This helps to access some of our unconscious thought processes which are important when trying to have a deeper impact.
