Crossroads - Weekend Messages

One of the most astounding things about Jesus is His choice of those He associated with. In a world where there is so much “ladder-climbing” and so many people seeking to increase their status by associating with the right people, Jesus flips the script. The people He chose to be His friends often were people that others wished didn’t exist. In this weekend’s message, you will see Jesus’ friendshi...

What a friend we have in Jesus! That’s the title of a famous hymn from the history of the church. As good as the song is, those words are an even better reality–that we can actually be friends of God. This weekend we will begin looking at the unique friendships of Jesus. First, we will see Jesus’ unique friendship with two sisters who couldn’t be more different. But both are friends of Jesus.

Feeling burned out or spiritually dry? Jesus doesn’t ask us to strive, He invites us to abide. In this message, discover what it means to stay connected to Christ and bear fruit that lasts. You weren’t made to do life on your own... you were made to abide in the Vine. Let’s talk about connection, pruning, and living a truly fruitful life.

In a world obsessed with climbing higher, Jesus points us downward. When His disciples asked, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” Jesus responded by placing a child in front of them—and in doing so, He turned the whole idea of greatness upside down. In this message, we explore the radical call of Jesus to humble ourselves, trust Him like children, and remember that even as mature belie...

In John 9, Jesus heals a man born blind, which provokes the question of sin and suffering. This story illustrates the power of Jesus, not only to restore physical sight, but also to offer each of us a new perspective on life and divine purpose. As we embrace His perspective on life, Jesus then can transform our struggles into testimonies of His power and love.

In a world driven by deadlines and urgency, Jesus invites us to slow down and walk at His pace. As we continue in the A Life With Jesus series, we see that even He faced pressure from those closest to Him. Yet today’s passage reminds us that God’s perfect timing doesn’t bend to human demands. It may not match our ideal schedule, but it’s always right on time. Join us as we explore how Christ embod...

What would your life look like without fear? Most of us are shaped by unspoken anxiety that quietly colors our thoughts, actions, and desires. But what if there’s a way to move from fearful to fearless? Beneath the weight that is holding you back, a deeper truth is waiting. Discover key truths from God’s Word that will help you move forward with freedom.

At just 12 years old, Jesus showed us what it looks like to seek wisdom and grow in spiritual maturity. This week, we’ll explore how Jesus’ time in the temple wasn’t just a moment of insight but a model for us. Learn how prioritizing God’s Word and pursuing divine wisdom can shape your life, relationships, and calling, allowing you to walk in the life Jesus has for you.

In the life of Jesus, we often see situations that force us to take a moment to consider their implications. Whether Jesus is arguing with the religious elite of His day or He is stopping to talk with children, Jesus’ approach to life is often startling and exciting. One of these moments is when Jesus entered the temple courts and literally began to overturn tables. We don’t often see Jesus this w...

Some of us believe in the idea of miracles, some of us have seen miracles, and some of us are just praying that the Lord even sees what we are going through. In today's story of Lazarus, we see all three examples. God wants to teach us that no matter where we find ourselves, no matter our circumstance or heartache, God is coming and He wants to show us His glory. 

As we continue to look at Jesus’ Olivet Discourse, we will see how Jesus invites us to walk through the world with the information that He has already shared with us. Jesus is not only concerned that we believe the right things, but He also wants us to apply those truths in the right way. Right theology must lead to right living. And Jesus points the way into the future for us as His followers.

Trouble in life is guaranteed. The Bible tells us in John 16:33, “In the world you will have tribulation.” So where on earth can we find hope? Jesus answers this question with absolute clarity in the same verse, “...but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” While we all crave certainty about our future, who Jesus is and what He has done gives us the ultimate certainty. His imminent return...

Our Lord Jesus is incredible. Everything about Him is praiseworthy. As a teacher, miracle worker, and social reformer, Jesus has transformed the world. We don’t often think of Jesus as a prophet. But He is a prophet. And His most famous prophecy is included in all three of the synoptic gospels: Matthew, Mark, and Luke. It is called the Olivet Discourse. This weekend, we will begin exploring it.

This week we are launching our new series, The Prophecies of Jesus, and we see that the Bible is full of prophecies. Jesus Himself not only spoke countless prophecies but the life He lived was the fulfillment of many prophecies. Today’s passage will explore the core of many of our struggles and it comes down to our belief. Can we believe that God is still good even when things don’t feel good? Do...

The resurrection of Jesus announces the victory of God. “The victory over what?” you may ask. The resurrection declares in bold terms the victory over EVERYTHING. Through the death and resurrection of Jesus, literally everything changes. And it is important for us to learn to walk in the victory by which Jesus has set us free.

Holy Week always begins with Palm Sunday. On that important day, Jesus entered Jerusalem and was celebrated as the Promised King. It’s incredible to imagine the scene as Jesus entered on His chosen donkey and the multitudes rejoiced and praised God. But it sparked the events that ultimately led Jesus to the cross and His victorious resurrection. As we reflect on Palm Sunday, there is much that we...

In sports, when one team blows out another team, it is a sight to behold. The reactions and demeanors of the victorious team and their fans are unique. Even on the journey towards the end of the route, there is great joy in the victory. How much more should this be true for the children of God? The Bible declares that we are “more than conquerors” through Jesus. As we begin our new series, The Vic...

In Mark 5:1-20, we meet a man who’s been tormented by demons, living in isolation and despair. But when Jesus arrives, everything shifts. This powerful story shows us that no demon can hold us back, no darkness can consume us, and no situation is too hopeless for Christ’s liberating power. Join us as we explore how Jesus not only frees the demon-possessed man but also calls him to a new life—a lif...

Have you ever struggled with temptation? Of course you have. Everyone has. Whether it is the temptation to say or do something you know you ought not to do, or the struggle to not indulge a certain desire, everyone knows the battle of temptation. It may shock you to realize that Jesus, too, was tempted. Yet, Jesus was victorious over temptation at every turn. What a miracle! We have much to learn...

In a world filled with noise, distractions, and criticisms, Jesus models what it means to live radically differently. As we continue our sermon series on the Miracles of Jesus, today’s passage reveals the power of stepping away from the noise, opening our hearts to the voice of God, and recognizing how hearing Him clearly impacts our ability to declare His goodness. Join us as we uncover how only...

Do you ever find yourself putting hope in the wrong thing and then being let down by the outcome? In the passage we’re studying today we see a great multitude of hurting people waiting for, and putting their hope in, something of this world, while the very Savior of the world walks through their midst. Their eyes and their hope were on the wrong thing. We can instead hear the invitation from Jesus...

Watching Jesus move through the world in the Gospels is an incredible journey. Jesus is always surprising. His ways are unique and His work is just different. This is on display in the miraculous account where Jesus raises the widow’s son from the dead. Filled with incredible clarity and insight, there is much we will learn as we study it together.

In Mark 2:1-11, a paralyzed man is brought to Jesus by his four brave friends. They lower him through a roof, hoping for a miracle. But before Jesus talks about the man’s physical condition, He speaks to his deepest need: “Son, your sins are forgiven.” This story teaches us that true healing goes beyond what we can see. While Jesus cares about our physical struggles, His main goal is to restore ou...

At Crossroads, we always seek to simply respond to Jesus. Since Jesus is our Lord and Savior, we trust Him even when all hope seems lost. How we seek after Jesus in times of trouble and how we respond to His invitations will have a tremendous impact on our lives. In today’s message, we will see the tremendous miracle that Jesus bestows on some of the most marginalized people in their society. 

Wouldn’t it be amazing if we could defy the laws of nature? Like ascending bodily into heaven. Like walking through walls. Like walking on water. Do you know that Jesus did all of these things? It is one of the proofs of His divinity. Do you want to know something even more amazing? The apostle Peter also walked on water. Join us this weekend as we explore the miracle of walking on water.
