Crossroads - Weekend Messages

The Greatest Teacher of all time – Jesus - taught us the point of life is love. We always love people and even things in our life, but there’s a right and a wrong movement to our love. The right kind of love moves upward to God, inward to ourselves, and outward to other people. Somehow it doesn't always work out that way. So one of the greatest things we can do for our life and relationships is le...

The Israelites have been gearing up for battle for a while now -- 40 years, in fact. And we’ve been ready and waiting, too, as we’ve followed their journey. Well, it’s finally time for the first battle in the Promised Land: the famed battle of Jericho. But the battle for Jericho isn’t like any battle you’ve ever seen because God has a crazy plan to defeat a previously undefeatable city and honor t...

We all have those days where we just drag a little bit. In fact, some days you might feel like you need your own motivational speaker just to keep going -- (but that’s expensive). Thankfully, God himself gives us the keys to living successful lives, and when we learn those keys and choose to live the way he suggests, he promises to help us every step of the way. Join us this weekend, and listen in...

In Joshua 5, we find the children of Israel now securely within the Promised Land, but still with some battles ahead. Yet, before the battle of Jericho, there were some final preparations that needed to be made. As is always the case, the things that God values are vastly different than what we, as humans, value.

Sometimes when we are in the middle of a miracle, we can’t always see it. Yet, each and every day at Crossroads, the lost are being reached in a way that they can understand, lives are being transformed, and the work of God’s kingdom is happening. Join us this weekend for our mid-year vision message as we look at the tremendous things God is doing at Crossroads and get a glimpse of what is up ahea...

Everyone loves great preaching. But preaching with great love is the best! Jesus taught many things and in many ways, but one of His "go-to" sermons is best known as the Beatitudes recorded in Luke 6. Let's take a look together at the 11 verses that make up one of the most famous teachings in the Bible.

Our mission is to simply respond to Jesus, but what does that look like practically? Keeping it simple, we respond with service and praise. Because Jesus is real and showed us that serving others was the greatest demonstration of faith and love, we respond to Him by serving others. When done by the leading of God’s Spirit, the result is that praise rises in our hearts.

Memories are powerful reminders of the goodness and faithfulness of God. When the children of Israel crossed the Jordan River, God had them erect memorial stones so that they would always remember His work and ways. The Lord knows that without these memorials, we, too, are prone to forget how mightily He has worked in our lives over the years.

This life is messy, and, unfortunately, it can also be painful. But this life is not the whole story. The Scriptures encourage us to press on and speak unequivocally of an eternal life that awaits the people of God. So, no matter what we struggle with or the trials we face on this side of eternity, we are guaranteed a beautiful future in our forever home!

Crossing over the Jordan River into the Promised Land is the great climactic event of the book of Joshua. We will look at this monumental step for the children of Israel in Chapter 3 and encounter the Lord Himself all over this event.

Fasting is one of the great spiritual practices spoken of in the Bible. And for many, fasting is elusive and challenging. It was regularly practiced in both the times of the prophet Isaiah, as well as in Jesus's time. Yet, unfortunately for many people, they completely missed the point of what God intended when He told us to fast. As we look at Isaiah 58 together, we will see that fasting was actu...

The word “Gospel” means “good news,” and it's really the greatest news of all times, which is why God began to share it long before Jesus actually walked on the earth. God’s plan of salvation through His Son was declared through the words of the prophets that began the echoes of a future time. Isaiah 61 is a remarkable example of this foretelling of the good news that would affect all of humanity....

Rahab is one of the Bible’s most unique and interesting characters. It is easy to underestimate how mightily she was used by the Lord. We will learn that she is an essential part of God’s story to humanity. Although not an Israelite, God uses her to help Joshua escape death, and she ultimately becomes a part of Jesus’s family tree.
