Words: "Experiential"

In many churches, you're pretty much a spectator at a worship service with three major exceptions:

• church gymnastics (sit, stand, kneel, walk the aisle, etc.)
• congregational singing (meaning the part where the guy up front urges us to sing as opposed to the music performed by the band or choir)
• giving (putting money in the plate/basket/pouch/bucket/whatever as it goes by)

In experiential worship, the gathering is intentionally designed to involve more movement & participation on the part of the congregation through a variety of methods. These could include prayer stations, small group discussion, contemplative silence, multi-sensory experiences, and much, much more.

New Life @ Night is definitely going to be more experiential.
