First Christian Church of Houston presents the Zeteo Worship Gathering, Sunday, November 13 at 6:30pm, (and the second Sunday of each month). This month, with guest musician Tim Coons.

Zeteo is a radically inclusive worship gathering for anyone seeking to love God and love what God loves. Everyone is welcome, regardless of age, race, religious background, gender identity or sexual orientation.

Pastor Michael Dunn of First Christian Church says “Zeteo is an attempt to provide an expression of Christian spirituality for people who for many reasons don't like church. Either because they have been burned by narrow and exclusive experiences or because it simply hasn't made a whole lot of sense.”

Zeteo is the Greek verb “to seek.” As such, Zeteo takes seriously its mission to seek God and the Realm of God. Through the use of ancient and modern Christian practices such as art, prayer, silence, meditation, and dialogue, Zeteo desires to build a supportive visionary community. Ultimately, Zeteo seeks to be partners in God’s creative passion for this world; a world of justice, peace and love.

Family Minister, Jenni Martin Fairbanks, believes that “Zeteo is an expression of community where people can know the beauty of deep connectedness with others and with the Spirit and mystery of God. Zeteo seeks to find the Divine in ordinary and every day culture, incorporating music and the arts where seeking people, as Irish theologian Peter Rollins says, ‘will find their liturgical hearts.’”
