Spirit Groove FAQs

What is Spirit Groove?

Spirit Groove is really just what it sounds like. It is when the Spirit and the Groove get together. When we say Spirit we mean the Holy Spirit as predicted in the prophecy of Joel 2:28-32 and fulfilled in Acts 2:1-41 and throughout the New Testament.

How was Spirit Groove started?

Spirit Groove was a vision that God gave to McKinley "Mak" Hailey over seven years ago. A former youth pastor who had become uninterested with normal Sunday morning service, he decided to provide a venue where anyone, especially Gen-Xers, could come and be in the worship of God. In November 2000, the first Spirit Groove was held and there has been no turning back since.
