What We Do

Seek God's
Presence

Everyday
Worship

True worship flows from a heart surrendered to God, both in community and in our daily walk. As we grow in relationship with Him, His presence becomes the anchor that shapes everything we do.

Worship Service

eXpression Through Prayer & Worship

We believe in living a life of worship not only in our Sunday church services but in our daily walk of faith. We are hungry to encounter Jesus every day through relationship—not religion. We believe a church with a thriving and corporate worship culture—which is eXperienced in our weekend and youth church services—will begin to spill over into our daily lives.

True worship isn’t confined to a stage or a building; it’s the overflow of hearts surrendered to God. As we grow together in worship, both corporately and individually, we create a rhythm of living that keeps us anchored in His presence every day.

Our Worship Style

Contemporary

We know everyone has different preferences, but worship isn’t about style. While the Gospel stays the same, we believe in delivering it in new ways with spirit and truth.

Flexible

We never compromise on doctrine, but we stay fleXible in our worship style, using music and creativity to connect with people where they are and help lead them into God's presence.

Sacred

Our greatest desire is to create a place where God's presence dwells. Though the Holy Spirit lives in every believer, we seek to invite and honor the presence of God in our services.

Prayer Team

The Prayer Team is dedicated to covering every aspect of our weekend services in intentional, targeted prayer. This team gathers before services to intercede for worship, the message, the kids, and every person who walks through the doors—believing God will move powerfully in every heart and moment. If you’re unsure where you’re called to serve, we encourage you to take the Spiritual Gifts Test and discover how you can support LifechurchX through your unique strengths.

Baptisms

We regularly offer water baptisms at both of our campuses as a way to celebrate lives made new in Christ. Whether you’re a new believer or have walked with God for years and are ready to take this step, our team is here to support you. It’s a joyful, meaningful moment shared with your church family, and we love being part of it. When you’re baptized, you’re identifying with Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection. Going under the water symbolizes leaving the old behind, and coming out represents stepping into the new life God has for you. It’s an outward sign of an inward change, and it marks a powerful moment in your spiritual journey.

Prayer
Rooms

We approach everything in prayer, intentional, targeted intercessory prayer. Our prayer rooms are open in Jerseyville and Waterloo-Columbia all week during office hours, as well as before and after services. We welcome anyone to use this space for prayer and worship to connect with God.

Aligning with God's
Purpose Through Prayer and Fasting

Prayer

We believe in the power of united prayer. When we gather to intercede for our church, families, and communities, we create space for God to move. Corporate prayer gatherings and pre-service prayer times help us align with God’s heart and invite His presence into all we do.

Fasting

Fasting is a way we empty ourselves to be filled with more of God. During set times throughout the year, we fast as a church to seek clarity, breakthrough, and fresh direction. Whether it's food, media, or other distractions, we lay them down to focus our hearts on what truly matters—Jesus.
