encounter \ in-`kaunt-er \ vb \ to come
upon face to face
For all of human history, people have longed
to know their Creator, experiencing the
freedom of his gracious presence and the
power of his purifying love.
One ancient songwriter has expressed it
well: "As the deer pants for streams of
water, so my soul pants for you, O God.
My soul thirsts for God, for the living
God. When can I go and meet with God?" (Psalm
42:1-2, NIV)
It is this longing, this thirst, that we
hope Encounter helps to satisfy. As the
Saturday night worship gathering of BranchCreek
Community Church, Encounter is, quite simply,
designed to help people "go and meet with
God."
We do this by focusing our attention on
Jesus Christ, who, as we understand it,
came to reveal God to us. Specifically,
we gather to worship Jesus with passion
and humility, and to learn from him as we
dig into his Word, the Bible.
We want Encounter to be a safe place for
you to explore real Christianity. So bring
your questions; bring your doubts. But,
most of all, bring your spiritual hunger
as we gather to encounter God together.
