What to Expect

What are services like?
We believe that a worship gathering should be a celebration, not a memorial service. We know that people have different musical preferences. Real worship transcends musical genres. Our worship team usually consists of a full band, and features a contemporary worship style. Traditional hymns and choruses are also included. In our worship gatherings, we worship and praise God, we teach from the Bible, we pray, and we take communion together (periodically). All our gatherings are modern but Biblical in nature. You will see people singing loudly or quietly assuming an attitude of prayer, clapping and raising their hands or simply standing reverently. We encourage all genuine expressions of Biblical worship during our services. Our goal in corporate worship is to realize and experience the presence of God and give thanks for who He is and what He has done. The messages at Church of God of San Jose are practical and relevant teachings from the Bible. We believe that God wants to be involved in our everyday lives, so we present the ageless truths of the Bible in a way that is easy to understand, even if you've never been to church.

What is the community like?
Our church community is friendly, culturally diverse, and multi-generational. We have several young families, a vibrant youth ministry, a new young adult ministry, men and women Bible studies for all ages, and home-based community groups that meet during the week. Our commitment to live out the gospel in the world inspired us to create the non-profit organization 4others (www.4others.org). As a church community, we are continually creating and engaging in local and global service opportunities, including hosting the annual Food 4others MobilePack in San Jose (see www.food4others.org for details).

What if I'm not a Christian?
We warmly welcome you to come check out the message we so passionately believe and proclaim! Our services are casual and simple with messages that are easy to understand and apply to everyday life, even if you've never been to church before. Our pastors and members would be happy to explain to you what we believe and gently assist you in your own spiritual journey. You do not have to be a Christian to attend our services or participate in our outreach opportunities. We would love to have you visit us!
