From the Worship Leader:

I personally believe that Worship is not a Sunday-morning-start-the-service-with-singing-thing... I am convinced that if that is all we perceive Worship as, then God is grieved. I believe that music in worship is simply a means to an end- a medium to set the atmosphere for a unique encounter with the Creator. God longs for us not to go to Worship services, but rather live a lifestyle of Worship, where every minute of every day is a sacrifice of praise for the innumerable blessings we receive - to acknowledge God's sovereignty, even in the midst of trials. Does this mean that our times of worship in music and song are not what God desires- absolutely not! God created music... His Word tells us that before creation, the heavenly hosts worshipped Him with singing, and John tells us in Revelation, that the heavenly hosts continue to sing His praises today. So in my heart, I believe that God is, in His endless grace, granting us just a glimpse of the glory to come in our Worship services. But to limit Worship to a thirty-minute block of time a week is definitely not God's desire. I think everyone needs to step back and examine our notion of Worship, and strive to see it through the eyes of Him that created, and continually inspires it.

Praise and Worship

We believe that it is a person's greatest privilege and duty to worship God, the creator and sustainer of all we have and see. SCF utilizes many different styles and genres of music in our worship service. From contemporary to traditional, and the occasional union of the two, we effort to present an atmosphere and opportunity to meet God in new, exciting ways through a medium that everyone can relate to - music.

The SCF Praise Team is comprised of a full compliment of instrumentation, including keyboards, guitars, drums, as well as male and female vocals. Using many of today's most familiar Worship songs from Hosanna, Vineyard, Hillsong, and others, as well as originally inspired songs, the SCF Praise team strives to achieve excellence in presentation while exuding humility and thanksgiving for the awesome opportunity to use the gifts God has bestowed upon us. If you feel called to serve in the SCF Praise Team, contact the Music Ministry Leader.
