Crossroads Message Audio Podcast

What does it really mean to have peace? In Romans 5, we discover that peace isn’t just the absence of problems—it’s a gift rooted in what Jesus has already done for us. In this message, we explore three powerful truths every believer can live in: Peace — We have peace with God and can experience peace from God Privilege — We’ve been given access, authority, and assignment Problems — God uses trials to build endurance, character, and hope Through Scripture, real-life stories, and practical application, this message reminds us that even in life’s hardest moments, God is working. Our struggles are not wasted—they are shaping us into who He’s called us to be.

What are you really trusting in—your effort, your routines, your comfort, or God? In this message from Romans 4, we explore how Paul dismantles legalism and reminds us that righteousness has never been earned through works, tradition, or performance. It has always been received through faith.

Looking at the life of Abraham, we see what it means to trust an extraordinary God even when circumstances seem impossible. This sermon challenges us to stop following an imitation version of Jesus and place our hope in the true Christ revealed in Scripture.

No matter your past, your failures, or your doubts, God invites you to trust what He has already done through Jesus.

What actually counts to God? Is it effort, consistency, perfection, or something else?

In this message from Romans 4, Pastor Eppie walks through the life of Abraham to reveal the truth that we are made right with God through faith—not by works. Through powerful biblical examples like Abraham, Peter walking on water, the widow’s offering, and the father who cried, “I believe; help my unbelief,” this sermon reminds us that God is not measuring the size of your faith, but the direction of your faith.

In Romans 4, we’re reminded that we are made right with God not by what we do—but by faith in what Jesus has already done. But what does that kind of grace actually look like in real life? In this message, we turn to the story of David and Mephibosheth in 2 Samuel 9 to see a powerful picture of God’s grace in action. Mephibosheth was broken, hiding, and expecting judgment—but instead, he received an invitation to the king’s table.

After weeks of hard truth in Romans—reminding us that all have fallen short—we’re pointed back to the good news: we are justified by faith alone, through God’s grace. Not by our works, not by our effort, but by what Christ has already done.

This message unpacks what it really means to live a life marked by humility, grace, and faith that expresses itself through love. It’s a call to stop striving, stop comparing, and start living in the transforming grace of God—together in community.

In this powerful Easter message, Pastor Eppie shares the story of Mary Magdalene and the life-changing reality of the empty tomb.

Through Mary’s journey—from brokenness and spiritual darkness to freedom, hope, and restored purpose—we’re reminded that Jesus meets us right where we are. Even in our grief, doubt, and pain, He is present… calling us by name.

If you’ve ever felt lost, overlooked, or far from God, this message is for you. The resurrection isn’t just a moment in history—it’s an invitation to new life today.

They cried “Hosanna,” but missed the point. In Romans 3:21–26, discover how Jesus didn’t just come to fix circumstances—He came to save us from sin and make us righteous through His grace.

In Romans 3:1–20, Paul confronts some of the most common (and dangerous) ways we think about God, sin, and ourselves. What happens when our logic is off? What if the way we’re thinking is actually leading us away from truth?

Pastor Chris walks through how “backwards thinking” distorts our understanding of God’s faithfulness, minimizes the seriousness of sin, and causes us to rely on ourselves instead of grace. Through real-life stories, Scripture, and practical application, this message challenges us to replace faulty thinking with truth rooted in God’s Word.

In Romans 2:25–29, Paul confronts a dangerous form of spiritual deception—trusting in religious symbols and traditions instead of a transformed heart. In this message, we explore the origin and meaning of circumcision in God’s covenant with Abraham and how it eventually became a source of false security for many in Israel.

Paul reminds us that true faith isn’t about outward signs, religious activity, or spiritual knowledge—it’s about a heart changed by the Spirit of God. This message challenges us to examine our own hearts: Are we simply going through the motions, or are we truly devoted to Jesus?

In Romans 2:17–24, Paul confronts a powerful spiritual danger: knowing God’s truth without truly living it. In this message, we explore how Israel was chosen to represent God to the world, how the law revealed God’s holiness and pointed to Christ, and how pride and legalism distorted that calling over time.

Paul’s warning to the religious Jews is also a warning for us today. It’s possible to know Scripture, teach others, and appear spiritual—yet still misrepresent God through hypocrisy. Our lives are constantly telling a story about who God is.

This message challenges us to live from our identity in Christ, boast in God alone, and examine our hearts for hypocrisy so that our lives truly reflect Jesus to the world around us.
