Experience A Fresh Start This Easter

God created us with a deep need for connection. The phrase we are better together is easy to say but difficult to live. In a divided world, we often protect ourselves by keeping others at arm’s length—waiting to see where it feels safe to be fully seen. That process takes time, and trust can’t be rushed. But in spaces where belonging is valued, that process becomes possible—and encouraging.

For many, church has been a place where conformity is expected. People learn to speak the right language, share acceptable stories, and hide the parts of themselves they fear won’t be welcome.

At Experience, we invite you to bring your whole self—your questions, doubts, hopes, and stories. You don’t have to believe before you belong. This is a place for genuine relationships, shared learning, and honest conversations. We’re not trying to fix you. We’re here to walk together. That’s how we grow.

Intercultural churches bring people from various cultures together with an intentional openness to learn from one another, giving equal value and power to each culture, preserving cultural differences, and celebrating multiple cultural traditions.

They are defined by: Justice, Mutuality, Respect, Equity, Political Understanding, Acceptance, Freedom, Peacemaking, Celebration, Mutual Trust, Grace, and Growth.

People must be willing to leave the comfort zones of their own separate traditions, they must be willing to embrace different styles of worship and community engagement. As Intercultural churches interact and build relationships, moving from an ‘us and they’ to a ‘we’ existence, they grow together in spirit and become transformed by Jesus Christ!
