BENCHMARK BIBLE CHURCH

Learn more about our Worship Ministry

Our desire is to create a vulnerable, Gospel-centered corporate worship culture that uses song to adore Jesus, fight sin and lies, and grow closer to one another. We love to gather as a family and worship together—with some contemporary choruses, and some of the old hymns of our faith—all with a text rooted in Truth and music that engages our hearts in praise to the Lord.

“Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you, with all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God.”  – Colossians 3:16
