Music at National City Christian Church

Shout to the Lord, all the earth, ring out your joy.
Sing Psalms to the Lord with the harp, with the sound of music.
With trumpets and the sound of the horn acclaim the King, the Lord.    Psalm 98:4-6

Believing that music and all art forms serve as pathways to the presence and healing power of God, our Creator, the Ministry of Music at National City Christian Church strives to strengthen, inspire, and speak directly to the souls all people through its sacred music and arts programs. Through careful preparation and presentation guided by the Holy Spirit, and through complex choral anthems and the simplest songs, we strive daily to offer our very best to God and to those who enter the doors of this church.

As the "national church" of the Disciples of Christ denomination, we are aware that people come to this great church wanting and expecting music that is indeed special - music with majesty and grandeur befitting of the sanctuary's majesty and marvelous acoustics. We offer sacred music that is not heard in the day-to-day walk of life and that lifts and inspires in a way not duplicated in a smaller church setting or a concert hall.

We are deeply committed to an artistic diversity that reflects our church membership, our neighborhood, and the international city in which we live. We endeavor to deepen our congregation’s worship experience and create music that touches all generations. In the manner of Christ, we seek to serve this church’s community and our city by taking inviting those in our neaighborhood, as well as people from around the world, to share in the gift of music with us. It is our mission to have music and the arts minister to all people as we celebrate, together, the wonder and beauty of God’s creation.
