Ethos Chicago

To change a community or a culture, you must first change its ethos. Ethos is a Presbyterian Church in the Lincoln Park neighborhood of the city of Chicago seeking to bring transformation, healing and forgiveness through Jesus Christ.

Ethos Service Information

Ethos Chicago worships at the Biograph Theater, located at 2433 N. Lincoln Avenue in Chicago. It's just north of the Lincoln/Halsted/Fullerton intersection.

Services begin every Sunday at 10am.
