On The Grill

Ready to throw some food on the grill?  Nothing better!  We’re going to do more than throw meat on the grill at Crossroads this summer.  We’re going to allow God’s Word to “grill us” as we go through the New Testament book of James.  This book was written to a first century church struggling with the same things we are—living an authentic faith when the heat of trials, temptations, and testing are upon us.  Join us for this sizzling, faith-stretching summer adventure!

First Love

What do kindergarten, Ephesus and love have in common? We will look back, consider
and take inventory of the current state of our hearts. Just as Jesus called the Ephesians back to their first love, He calls us back to Him, our first love.

One More

Our nation is at a crossroads.  Political, racial, and economic divides are widening. We are now the un-united states of America.  Add to that is the seemingly narrowing influence of the Church.  3,500 people are walking away from the Church each day in the U.S.  Over 4,000 churches are closing yearly in our country.  What will we do?  Sit on the sidelines or step into the margins?  Will we complain or work for change?  We will we be part of the problem or part of the solution?  Join us as we make every effort to make a difference for ONE MORE! 

Easter at Crossroads

Unlike any other religion, Christianity is based on an event in history. 

It rises or falls on one thing - Jesus' supposed resurrection. If true, Jesus is in a class all by himself. If not, Jesus was an impostor and Christianity is a sham.  

Jesus himself claimed he would die and come back to life. So... did he? Or was the resurrection the "fake news" of the 1st century?

Join us for Easter at Crossroads as we look for answers.

TRUTHiness

Webster's has now sanctioned truthiness with two definitions: "truth that comes from the gut, not books"; and, "the quality of preferring concepts or facts one wishes to be true, rather than concepts of facts known to be true".  The idea behind “truthiness” is that actual facts are irrelevant. What matters is how we feel since people, not reality, are the final arbiters of truth.

The Why:  In our culture, religion and morality have been relegated to the category of subjective preference rather than objective truth. Truth is considered less important than how something makes us feel.

How should we respond to this confusion? Should we stop proclaiming Jesus as the truth?

Is reality up for grabs? Is “truth” that which gets the most likes/shares on Facebook?
