The Moody Church Today
During Dr. Lutzer's pastorate, the church and its ministries have grown considerably. Construction was recently completed on a three-story Christian Life Center addition to the current 1915 building, intended to provide sufficient Sunday School classroom space and accommodate new and growing ministries. A street-level entry and elevators provide better access for those with disabilities. The facility also offers subterranean parking for 21 cars and a rooftop deck for gatherings of up to 300 people.
The Church has an extensive radio ministry, with three programs broadcast nationally:
- Moody Church Hour – the Sunday morning worship service
- Running to Win – a daily 25-minute (or 15-minute in some areas) instructional program by Dr. Lutzer
- Songs in the Night – started in 1946, a 30-minute Sunday evening program combining music and a meditation by Dr. Lutzer.

Famous quotes containing the words moody, church and/or today:
“Well, something for a snowstorm to have shown
The country’s singing strength thus brought together,
That though repressed and moody with the weather
Was nonetheless there ready to be freed
And sing the wild flowers up from root and seed.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“The Church disowned, the tower overthrown, the bells upturned, what have we to do
But stand with empty hands and palms turned upwards
In an age which advances progressively backwards?”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“Working women today are trying to achieve in the work world what men have achieved all along—but men have always had the help of a woman at home who took care of all the other details of living! Today the working woman is also that woman at home, and without support services in the workplace and a respect for the work women do within and outside the home, the attempt to do both is taking its toll—on women, on men, and on our children.”
—Jeanne Elium (20th century)
