From time to time, this space predominantly dedicated to breaking news stories, analysis of current events, and diverse perspectives on our common faith, has been transformed into a place of meeting and a house of prayer. One of the underlying beliefs that sets Spectrum apart is that the conversation shared here, for all of its often vigorous give and take, is itself a sacred thing because of the way it creates community.
Today, this online meeting place is again transformed from dialoguing community to worshiping community. Welcome to Spectrum Church.
