Our architects sought to design a “thin space\u201d where heaven and earth meet, where, before a word is spoken or a note is played, the hearts of those who enter are turned toward God. Through art and architecture, it tells the story of the Christian faith.<\/p>\n
The Resurrection Sanctuary is designed around a garden theme. The Bible begins and ends in a garden, and in the center of the scripture Christ is crucified, buried and resurrected in a garden. The book of John tells us that Mary Magdalene, the first person to see the risen Lord, mistook him for a gardener. Our hope was that by stepping into the building, people would step into the story of creation, redemption and restoration.

At the same time the simplicity of the design and the arrangement of the seats creates a more intimate sense of community. Most seats are within 90 feet of the chancel. Small sections create small communities within the larger room.<\/p>\n
Every detail of the building comes together to tell the story of God’s relationship with humanity.
