In our increasingly secular world, the making of sacred space is becoming extremely challenging for it is not only material matters that shake our faith. The question of what constitutes liturgical space is interesting because it is an effort to encapsulate and to promote this notion of faith. It is one that this article wishes to explore. Also, with the changing trend in religion (namely Christianity), gospel dissemination no longer centres completely on the clergy, this responsibility being shifted in part to the congregation. Such change undoubtedly brings about a duality to the architecture of faith since it must now address the congregation as a community and yet perceptibly ensure that the presence of God is not subdued nor denied.

Nonetheless, these are only two major issues that the Grace Methodist Church at Telok Blangah Road must hope to respond to. To construe that church design merely revolves around these parameters is being simplistic. One must in fact, review the agenda of the architect and how his well made plans fit metaphorically and physically within God's larger plan. No matter how small the church may be, such responsibility remains large. The church is a typology that constantly baffles man, challenging him to exercise his creativity to make space that speaks not of his intentions alone, but more importantly of the sacred.
