Types of churches in Henrico

Modern Henrico Churches

Many West End congregations around Short Pump, Innsbrook, and the Nuckols Road corridor feature contemporary worship bands, casual dress, and family amenities. They often meet in purpose-built campuses or renovated retail spaces with strong kids and student ministries serving neighborhoods like Glen Allen and Tuckahoe.

Henrico Young Adult Churches

These communities connect 20s–30s near Libbie Mill–Midtown, along West Broad Street, and in apartment-heavy pockets of Glen Allen with weeknight small groups and late-morning services. Expect social meetups, service projects, and mentoring geared to young professionals commuting to Innsbrook or nearby downtown.

Historic & Liturgical Churches

Traditional congregations in Varina, Lakeside, and along the River Road corridor emphasize reverent liturgy, choirs, and brick sanctuaries tied to Henrico’s older neighborhoods. Many host seasonal choral events and service ministries that draw multi-generational families seeking continuity.

Multicultural & Spanish-Language Churches

Henrico’s diversity shows in bilingual and ethnic congregations along the Broad Street corridor and near the RIC airport in Sandston and Highland Springs. You’ll find Spanish-language services, ESL and citizenship classes, and communities rooted in African, Korean, and South Asian traditions around Glen Allen and Innsbrook.

#TakeUpYourCross
“This is what it means to be a follower of Jesus. This is what we live out, and this is what we call other people into. Is denying ourselves and laying it all at the feet of Jesus. Taking up our cross daily, willing to suffer and fix our eyes on Jesus. And we look at example of Jesus then. That he lived a perfect life that we could not live. And he suffered at the hands of sinners, crucified the death of a criminal hanging on a tree, dying in our place, paying the price for our sin debt that we could not pay. But then rising on the third day, defeating death, bringing salvation for everyone who believes.”

#HeartKnowsRight
“Yeah. Yeah. You can't justify yourself. No. And nobody's getting before the throne and saying, I didn't know because you did know. Yeah. Hallelujah. One of the reasons I believe we know is because he created us. And even though we're not saved, we have a conscience. Somebody Yeah. We do. Conscience. Hallelujah. Yeah. He gave you a conscience, and that conscience knows right and wrong. Yes. It does. He he he never went to church, never heard about God. He knows right and wrong. It's right in your heart, and you know that you're supposed to love people. It's it's all there. You just won't acknowledge it. You won't acknowledge a need for it. Mhmm. Hallelujah. Mhmm. Amen?”
44s
“Something as simple as water becomes a means by which Christ comes to you, washes away all of your sins, and gives you this new birth in Christ. This drowning of the old Adam and this resurrection of a new birth, a new person redeemed and clothed in the righteousness of Christ because the kingdom breaks in here with Christ and his spirit. And it's not dependent on anything we can do. It's not dependent on how it looks. You could go to the biggest cathedral in Europe where thousands of Christians gather together to hear the word and receive his sacrament, and the kingdom is there.”
53s
#AbideInChrist
“One, you have to commit to following Jesus. Trusting in Jesus daily. Take it a step further. How do you build that relationship? You spend time in god's word daily, prayer daily, god's people regularly praying, worshiping. You're fixing your eyes on Jesus from the minute your feet hit the floor until you go to bed that evening. Whatever your schedule looks like, it's spending time with Jesus throughout your day. And so how do you abide and remain in Jesus? You spend time with Jesus. And what happens, the more time you spend like Jesus, the more you start looking like Jesus. Isn't that crazy? The less time you spend like Jesus, the less you look like Jesus.”
60s
#PassTheFaith
“And the aim for all of this being and doing is for God's word not to be slandered. Your life is a testament to God's word. So women, who are you discipling? This is a call to pass the baton, disciple younger Christians to follow Jesus. And to be clear, the the church needs older Christians like this. Not Christians who are just gonna complain about the next generation. We need Christians to change their mind from being criticizing to be great commission minded. It changes everything. You wanna make a difference in the generation that you're so tempted to complain about? Start pouring into them. Start investing in them. Start passing the baton.”
35s
#HopeInChrist
“Jesus laid his life down on our behalf so while we were foolish, we could become wise. While we were, lost, we could become found. While we were dead in our trespasses and sins, we could be made alive in Christ. There's hope for us today. There's hope for us because of what Christ has done. Our sin that he took to the cross, the cross that we should have bore, the wrath of God which should have gone on us went totally on Christ on our behalf.”
37s
#ChristAlone
“Everything, all the wickedness, all the evil we experience now has been taken care of through Christ. So I'm praying that the Holy Spirit would move among us, and even among those who haven't accepted this yet. Maybe this is the first time you've heard it like this. And I'm here to tell you, yeah, you're foolish. We all are. But Christ died for the full so that we could know him, that we could know eternal life. And that's offered to you today through faith in Christ. Not your works, not the law, not religion. It's only in Christ alone that you can be saved. Accept that today.”
23s
#FaithOverWorks
“And it is when we accept that we accept that we too were once foolish and disobedient. We gotta accept that first. And then we believe in who Christ is and that he lived the life we couldn't live. He died to death. We deserved. He wore hell on our behalf so that we could know the righteousness of God, so we can know heaven forever.”
50s
#TruthTransformsLives
“But when truth of the gospel gets a hold of you, it changes how you think. It changes how you love. It changes how you speak. It changes how you forgive. It changes how you work. It changes how you parent. It changes how you serve. It changes how you suffer. It changes how you hope. It ultimately changes who you are because the gospel isn't merely information about Jesus. The gospel is the truth about Jesus that transforms everyone who believes. And as we walk through this book of Titus, don't settle for just knowing truth. Let the truth of God's word confront you. Let the truth of God's word comfort you. Let the truth of God's word correct you. Let the truth of God's word change you, and let the truth of God's word transform you.”
37s
#InfoIsntTransformation
“See, we love information, but information isn't transformation. And that's one of the great dangers within Christianity. We can become experts in the truth, but that truth doesn't transform us. See, we can know theology and still be arrogant. We can know scripture and still be unforgiving. We can know doctrine and still be selfish. We can know grace and still not give grace. We can know Jesus and still not live like Jesus.”
