LifeSprings Baptist practices a contemporary worship style. We have an outstanding worship leader, Chas Crockett, who leads a contemporary worship band. The music we use in our services can usually be heard on The FISH 104.7, which includes artist such as Casting Crowns, Chris Thomlin and Third Day among many other current Contemporary Christian Music artist. We are very causal in appearance and fully believe in the ‘come as you are’ adage. We offer a small coffee and water bar in the back of the sanctuary and just tend to treat everyone like part of our family from the first day we meet. We are very prayer orientated and believe and preach the Word of God and seek the Will of God daily.
