The long forgotten festival of tabernacles (Sukkot) is a wonderful worship experience for every believer. Click here to learn more about it and please join us for this unique experience. We invite you to participate with us; but before you sign up. We invite you to learn more about it. This is the best family holiday of the year. Let worship and holiday collide in this festival “for all generations.” 
Just a recap: the great holiday known as the Feast of tabernacles is mentioned in the times of Moses, Ezra, Jesus and the end times. Making it the winner of our little contest and placing Christmas in a tie for third next to Elvis’ birthday and Cheeseburger day. Christians cannot ignore the worship experience designed by God and given throughout of our generations. I invite you to learn more about this festival and plan to participate this year starting September 24th, 2010.
Check out our article to learn a little more and please join us at Epiclesis Church, September 19, 2010.
You are invited to join us Wednesday evening for a time of scripture reading and Friday night for the gigantic feast of tabernacles.
“The greatest challenge facing the church of Jesus Christ today—the reality that faces the church particularly of North America—is summed up in one word: them.” -Dr. William Pannell

Welcome Message
When I was a child and my family would go into a store with fragile merchandise, my father would say, “look with your eyes, not with your hands.” He knew me well. But I knew what every young child knows: that in order to truly see an object you must touch it, squish it, pick at it, toss it in the air, or hit your brother with it. Interaction is a much better tool of observation that merely “looking.” My father knew this, but he simply didn’t want to pay for the merchandise that I would break. Let me ask you something, do you know this? Do you know recognize what is ingrained within every 5 year old? That interacting with something is a great way to “see it”? If you understand this, then you will understand The Well.
The Well is about activity and maturity through obedience; not maturity through mere intellectual saturation. The scriptures do not point to the mind as the rudder of the ship, but to a more sensory organ: the tongue. We pursue Christ like we’re in gym class, not math class. Where many Christians live in a “learn with your ears not with your hands” approach to growth, I want to tell you to “learn with your senses not with your psyche.” Rodney Clapp writes, “Christian spirituality is kinesthetic spirituality.” Obedience is not mental gymnastics. Here at The Well we practice obedience and disciplines in a whole-hearted abandon to a consummation of learning (discipleship). We act; and we encourage others in active habits of spiritual formation.

When we would go into a store
When I was a child and my family would go into a store with fragile merchandize, my father would say, “look with your eyes, not with your hands.” He knew what every young child knows: that in order to truly see an object you must touch it, squish it, pick at it, toss it in the air, or hit your brother with it. Interaction is a much better tool of observation that merely “looking”. My father knew this, but he simply didn’t want to pay for the merchandise that I would break. Let me ask you something, do you know this? Do you know recognize what is apparent to every 5 year old? That interacting with something is a great way to “see it”? If you understand this, then you will understand The Well.

Doing back math works in algebra, but it doesn’t work in spiritual development
Democracy is not the solution!
Applying what we learned from Iraq to the socio-economic development of America
We think that democracy is a tool of progress for people, where it may be merely a tool of maintenance
