Week 33 - Skyline Church

Skyline Church is located in downtown Oklahoma City and worships in an auditorium in a business building. The atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable. There was a stage with a small band that led the worship time. The sermon was thought provoking and inspiring and very well-delivered. The highlight for me, though, were the two teachers who talked about the schools they work in and why. These people could work anywhere, yet they choose to be in schools where there is 100% free lunch participation. They enter into the difficult lives of their students and provide hope and unconditional love. This is a group of people who have put together a lovely worship time and really enjoy each other’s company. However, what was impressive was their commitment, as an entire congregation, to the Christian walk in their everyday lives. I got the impression that church to them was just the respite on Sunday morning that fueled them for a week of service. A lesson for us all.
