Welcome to Broadway
Our mission is to enable persons to encounter the living God, as disclosed through Jesus Christ; to serve and celebrate God in an ever-changing society.
The congregation of Broadway Christian Church proclaims that we are a place of welcome to all, regardless of race, gender, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, ethnicity, marital status, physical or mental ability, political stance, socioeconomic background, criminal history, or theological perspective. We welcome all to this congregation, to Christ's table, and to service within the church. We recognize the faith, baptism and spiritual gifts of all Christians and those yearning to know Christ and celebrate that we are all children of God, striving to do God's will.
Broadway Christian Church is an open and affirming place for all God's children.
To Our Beloved Community, wondering and seeking...
We miss being together as we once were for worship and service. We are discovering, however, what we subconsciously already knew: we're still the Church whether inside or outside of the brick-and-mortar building.
Virtual worship continues each Sunday at 10:30 a.m. via our YouTube channel. Friends from our own neighborhood to friends around the world are tuning in to celebrate with us week after week! We discovered the value of our beautiful Outdoor Worship Area as we began, and continue, one in-person worship service in that space every Sunday at 9 a.m. (See more info below).
Sunday School classes, small groups, youth, children, and adults alike, are meeting via ZOOM, continuing to share in fellowship, study, and prayer. Our Mission and Outreach Ministry is hosting opportunities to participate in a Habitat for Humanity home-build this summer. Meals continue to be provided for the hungry and our Vision Team continues their efforts to press forward with plans for the Vision that will carry us into the next chapter of our life together. It's a beautiful thing to experience authentic community in ongoing ways. This is what it means to be Church!
Columbia’s Health Department and Broadway’s own COVID Advisory Team continue to guide us through our Comeback from COVID. We will keep you updated regularly as our opportunities grow and change. Keep showing up wherever you can, however you can, with whatever you can to help our church family, the city of Columbia, and even our global neighbors find a way through this challenging season. With God's help, we can make a great difference together!
Love,
The Broadway Staff Team

It's All About Soul: Revolution
Matthew 6:25-33
Soul Song: "Right Here, Right Now" - Jesus Jones
Author Mark Scandrette wrote about a conversation with his friend, a tattoo artist, who was inking a client’s back while they were discussing the state of the Church today. The man under the needle turned and interjected, “Jesus is cool, it’s just that they have messed with Jesus. I mean, Christianity was at its best when it was secret and hidden, and you could die for it.”
A bit crass, perhaps, but left Scandrette wondering, “Am I in some measure complicit in the domestication of Jesus?” In his time, Jesus was a disturber of assumptions and cultural norms. With the signature phrase, “You have heard that it was said… but I tell you,” he broke prevalent myths about what it meant to seek God. Jesus was a revolutionary. Are we?
“But strive first for the kingdom of God and God’s righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” (Matthew 6:33)
