"Practicing Spiritual Gifts"
In Church we ought to experience something outside the ordinary. Something other and different from everyday life. Something called worship.
In all the universe God alone is to be worshiped. We may appreciate and admire great people and the wonders of creation but there is but one Creator, Redeemer God who alone is to be worshiped. And since God is unique, worship too is unique. (continued after the links).

But today the question is often asked "Why worship the God of the Bible?" as our contemporary generation wrestles with how such an ancient book could still be meaningful and relevant.
Actually, it's precisely because the Bible is so ancient that we need and can rely on its wisdom. We need truth from somewhere far outside our failing, contemporary world. We need truth that's proven and unchanging, whose anchor is in the eternal.
For those who look below the surface it becomes evident that the Bible provides the only reliable road map for God's plan and just how it is we're to go about worship. In it we're taught how he wishes to be approached.
The Scriptures further assure us that where people sincerely pursue God's truth and Spirit, the way to genuine worship will be opened to them with all of its attending benefits—both for now and eternity.
Jesus taught that God the Father actually seeks such worshipers (John 4:23-24). And it's why at Winding Creek we aim for worship that's both biblical and powerful—worship that's in spirit and truth.
If aiming for this kind of worship interests you then we invite you to join us this Sunday. You'll find directions and times by clicking the following link: map/times/info.
God's blessings to you and yours!

And if you're looking for a church, our services are at 10:15 am. You'll find much of the following information on our "about" "map/times/info" pages:
Winding Creek Community Church is just one of many churches in Stafford VA.
We're just south of the cities of Quantico and Woodbridge, and the Quantico Marine Base. We're about 15 miles north of Fredericksburg, at the corner of Garrisonville (Route 610) and Shelton Shop Roads (just behind the Bloom Shopping Center). Our services, events and offices are in the Stafford Campus of Fredericksburg Christian School Elementary School located at 101 Shepherd's Way.
We own land next to the school with plans to build a church facility. Our worship music employs both contemporary choruses and classic traditional hymns. We aim for Spirit-filled worship with theological integrity and biblical substance. Our services are designed to build the faith of both first-time and regular attenders. Of the churches of Stafford Virginia, we would be considered reformed, charismatic, and nondenominational. We regard the presence of the Holy Spirit and theological integrity to be integral to worship that is in both Spirit and Truth.
We are confessional in that we hold to the truths recovered in the Reformation Period of church of history. Specifically we look to the Apostles', Athanasian and Nicene creeds, as well as the Heidelberg, Belgic, and Westminster confessions. We teach the Scriptures from a covenantal theological perspective, a view that places Christ at the center of both testaments. Though Winding Creek is non-denominational, we are a member of Grace Network of Churches (also called Grace Presbytery), with sister networks in England and South Africa. Our church government is somewhat Presbyterian with the congregation involved at some level in most every aspect of church life.
