Performing during the services with brass and percussion accompaniment is the Marble Sanctuary Choir.
Marble Church’s roots reach back almost 400 years, yet the congregation continues to grow and thrive in progressive and innovative ways. Under the leadership of Dr. Michael B. Brown, Marble provides dynamic, positive spiritual direction to a diverse and embracing congregation in the heart of New York City and to the world via its media ministry. Dr. Norman Vincent Peale, one of the greatest religious figures of the 20th century, led Marble Church for 52 years and wrote ’The Power of Positive Thinking’ while at Marble.
