“For the wicked and the thirsty”

Kyrie Eleison (Greek for “Lord have mercy”) is a very old, even pre-Christian, expression used constantly in all Christian liturgies. The prayer is simultaneously a petition and a prayer of thanksgiving; an acknowledgment of what God has done, what God is doing, and what God will continue to do.

Their mission statement is simple: Love God. Love People. Love Ourselves. Do some Good.

Kyrie is an inclusive, interdenominational gathering that welcomes anyone from any walk of life, sex, race, culture or sexual orientation.

WWJB is a time to talk God, drink beer. Let’s meet up to discuss and debate theology, and to enjoy God’s gift of fermentation! This is meant to be a free, laid-back, come-as-you-are discussion of the strange and beautiful world of Christian thought. Previous religious experience not required, previous drinking experience recommended!

ps: if you just want to join the discussion and have a Pepsi, you are more than welcome 🙂

WWJB is an outreach of Crossroads Fellowship (4155 Boulevard, Indy)

“We are the community gathering place,” notes Sullivan, whose pastors are regulars in his taproom.  “Conversations and debates go on all day and people trade ideas…I’ll often have a pastor sitting next to an atheist talking about all sorts of things, which isn’t something that can happen in a conventional church setting. How can you beat that?”

For people who love to sing hymns and drink beer.

There is a grand tradition within the Christian church of bringing together hymn-singing and pub culture. In the nineteenth century William Booth’s Salvation Army put Christian words to popular music sung in pubs and taverns.

In the twenty-first century, the event ‘Beer & Hymns’ has emerged as a not-so-new form of worship.

This site provides links to Beer & Hymns groups and events around the world.

The church meets in a bar with the hope to “remove some of those religious barriers and free people up to connect with God in a nonthreatening location”

Bar Church Mission:

“A lot of people seem to be interested in Jesus but are turned off by religion or just the idea of walking into an institutional church.  We get that.  At Bar Church, we’re interested in creating a place where any person – regardless of their background, accomplishments, failures or issues – can come experience friendship, acceptance, and the grace that comes through Jesus. We invite you to join us when you’re ready.  Come as you are.”

Brewing beers of Biblical proportions since 2014 A.D

Emmanuales is possibly the smallest brewery in the United Kingdom, deep in the heart of God’s own county: Yorkshire. It is a nano brewery in the cellar in the suburbs of Sheffield with one aim: to brew beers of biblical proportions to the glory of God. Master brewer, Nick Law, brings together the Good News with the good brews. He asks the question: What Would Jesus Brew?

Emmanuales beer names are nothing short of genious:

• Stout to the Lord
• Ryejoice
• O Hoppy Day
• Jonah and the Pale
• Consuming Friar
• As the Deer Pants for Porter
• Ale T’Lamb

Beer names are copyright of Emmanuales

Believe it or not, the idea for Monday Night Brewing grew out of a small Atlanta Bible study. We started brewing beer together on Monday nights as a way to get to know each other better. As we got more engrained in the industry and more people started showing up to brew with us, beer quickly became more than just a weeknight hobby.

We spent almost 5 years perfecting our beers before bringing them to market. Years of minor tweaks, arguments over hop profiles, and experiments with different brands of base malts are poured into every glass that we brew.

When membership was struggling, the church thought of new ways to better connect with people.  This led to a homebrew competition, and a challenge for other local churches to brew beer in a friendly competition to raise money for charity.  It was called the “What Would Jesus Brew?” competition.  St Paul’s team named themselves “Brew Unto Others” and their team slogan was “God’s peace. Happy yeast.”
