This Church has got it!
We’ve just got back from a superb four days with Dan and Hanna in Stockholm, Sweden. The weather was awesome – really sunny and warm too. So different from how it’s been over there all winter.
While we were there, we got the chance to visit their Church – Hillsong Stockholm. It was totally inspiring – we visited a few months ago and it was good then too, but they’ve grown, matured and moved premises. They now meet in a renowned Stockholm night club – GK, close to the city centre. How cool is that – Church in a night club!
I find it amazing that some Churches manage to find their niche and develop a positive ethos which enables them to go from strength to strength. Hillsong Stockholm is one of those. Some of the key points are that they confidently raise up young people to take responsibility and release people’s creativity. Pastor Andreas has stayed faithful to God’s call through thick and thin – now it’s paying off. Everyone is encouraged to be real with their Christianity – no false ‘spirituality’, but honesty which draws people to the thing which motivates them – relationship with God.
So if you’re ever in Stockholm on a Sunday – look them up – easy to find at hillsong.se.
