Crossing Community Church

Ambassador. Follower. Slave. Witness. Servant. All of these should describe a disciple of Christ. As Believers we should regularly ask ourselves who we are following; who we are serving; who is our master; who do we represent; who are we a witness for. The only acceptable answer is Jesus.

It's great to hear from Rich & Carol Mears and catch up on their ministry in Haiti and the new things God is doing in their ministry.

In Colossians 1 Paul speaks of a mystery that has been hidden for past ages and generations. As he writes he reveals that mystery is Christ living in His people.

In Colossians 1 Paul writes that he "rejoice(s) in my sufferings for your sake." Can you and I say the same thing? How did Paul arrive at a place in his life that he could say that?

Speaking from 2 Corinthians 4, veteran missionary and bible teacher, Greg Shipley, spoke to us about what it means to be pressed but not broken; to be at a lost but not lost nor abandoned. Finally, Greg speaks about how we manifest the life of Christ in the struggles of our daily life.

There are many that would say that our passage today teaches that a Christian can lose their salvation. We take a look into this idea to see what God's Word really says about it.

Our newest Elder, Todd Domke, speaks on living in a post-Christian world and addresses Christianity's claim of accurately diagnoses the brokenness of mankind.

The best resolution to conflict in a relationship is peace. In the case of the conflict between man and God, God sought that resolution through the death of His own Son. In Christ we are reconciled back to God!

What we know and believe shapes what we think and do. Therefore, if we come to a fuller understanding of the supremacy of Christ, that understanding should have a huge impact on our thinking and actions!

It's easy to take the focus off Christ and place it on ourselves or something or someone else. When Paul writes about "walking in a manner worthy of the Lord" in Colossians 1, he's talking about a life that is transformed by faith in Christ and directed by obedience to God's Word.
