Worship in the Godbox

Weekly Worship

We hold weekly worship services at 10am on Sundays on the Illinois Tech campus in the historic Carr Memorial Chapel, affectionately known as the Godbox, which was designed by the renowned architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe.

How We Worship

Our weekly worship service is free for anyone to come and join. During service, we sing hymns and modern worship music, and we pray for both ourselves as a congregation and for God's work all around the world.

At the beginning of the month, we share communion where we remember the shedding of Jesus' blood and the breaking of his body through drinking the juice and eating the bread.

Sermons

The strongest point of our worship is the focus on God's word in the Bible. Each week, a message is delivered that is based on the word of God from the Bible, holding to a specific passage.

In The Beginning, God
Genesis 1:1-2:3

The first words of the first chapter of the Bible open with a powerful, foundational truth: In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.  This shows that God exists and he is eternal.  We learn that God is Spirit, and through his creation we can witness his infinite power and wisdom, and be encouraged and inspired by his infinite goodness and holiness.

God With Us
Matthew 1:18-25

Matthew records how the birth of Jesus came about: he was born to a virgin named Mary who was engaged to a man named Joseph. Jesus was not conceived in the regular way, but came down from heaven and took on flesh in Mary's womb. Jesus is God who came down to be with us, because we could not go up to be with him. He came sinless, to give himself for us to die for us as an atoning sacrifice for our sins, so that we may be reconciled to God and be with him forever.

Peace and Comfort
Isaiah 9:1-7

We joke about 2020 being a bad year, like 1918, 1929, and 1956 all rolled into one. While it’s true, it’s been pretty bad, but truthfully, it’s not unique. Throughout history people have lived in darkness and suffered. Therefore it’s evident that we need peace. But where can we find a peace that will last? This passage gives us insight into solving this problem.
