SELAH CAFE
The gathering place for Christian artists, who desire to bring forth Kingdom Influence through their artistry! This venue cultivates an atmosphere of unity for worship artist for fellowship, networking with other believers in Christ from different congregations. Our hearts is to create bridges in the Body of Christ through the arts. Selah Café also is a great outreach environment for non-believers as they witness the various Christian artists share in dance, music, mime, song, poetry, painting, drama and photography. We have Open Mic at every gathering.
So next time you see something artistically inspirational…stop…think….ponder…..reflect….pause for a second and weigh out what you just saw and heard….hear the voice of God in it….Selah, [celah], is from the primary Hebrew root word [calah] which literally means ‘to hang,’ and by implication to measure (weigh).
Having manifested God moments through artistry in the spirit of the unified corporate Body!
