The Kingdom of Heaven operates on a different level than the world we live in and while we may conceptually understand this, sometimes it is difficult to live our lives with a Kingdom-minded view. These resources have been provided to assist you as you shift your way of living to more closely align with what Jesus has called us to.

Welcome to Week 4 of This Is What the Lord Says. In this Crossroads service, Jono takes us into Daniel 4:19–27, where Daniel faces the challenge of delivering a difficult message to King Nebuchadnezzar with both courage and compassion. We discover that speaking biblical truth doesn’t require a combative spirit or an attitude of superiority. Instead, we’re called to approach the culture around us with humility, setting aside self-righteous defensiveness and treating others with genuine respect. As we learn from Daniel’s example, we’ll explore how to speak hard truths with grace, offering a faithful witness that challenges others without pushing them away.

Following Jesus is personal, but it isn’t private. Church isn't something we're meant to simply watch from a distance. We are invited to belong, gather, grow, serve, and follow Jesus together.

Wherever you are in your faith journey—even if you're still deciding what you believe—there is a place for you here.

Welcome to Week 3 of This Is What the Lord Says. In this Crossroads service, Reid takes us into Daniel 3:13–18, 24–28, where Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego demonstrate what it means to stand firm in faith when everything is on the line. We discover that God is better than anything life can offer and bigger than anything death can take. True courage is rooted in confession and conviction—a willingness to declare what we believe and stand by it, even when the outcome is uncertain. Through the powerful words “But even if he does not,” we’re reminded that genuine faith doesn’t depend on God giving us the outcome we want, but on trusting Him no matter what happens.

Welcome to Week 2 of This Is What the Lord Says. In this Crossroads service, Jono takes us into Daniel 2:24–49, where we discover that earthly kingdoms rise and fall, but God’s kingdom will last forever. Through Daniel’s encounter with King Nebuchadnezzar, we’re reminded that human strategies and earthly power will ultimately fail, but God’s purposes never will. As followers of Christ, we’re called to live faithfully in our earthly kingdoms while working to establish a heavenly one. Like Daniel, we don’t have to simply assimilate to the culture around us or separate ourselves from it—we can trust God’s sovereignty and be agents of transformation right where He has placed us.

Welcome to Week 1 of This Is What the Lord Says. In this Crossroads service, Reid Robinette takes us into Daniel 1:1–21 to explore the sovereignty of God and what it means to live faithfully in a culture that doesn’t always align with our beliefs. Through Daniel’s story and the words of Jeremiah 29:4–9, we’re reminded that God remains in control, even when those in power seem to be working against Him. Rather than simply adopting the culture around us or retreating from it, we’re called to live faithfully within it, seeking its good and reflecting God’s truth in the places He has positioned us.

What makes the Church beautiful? It isn’t a building, a program, or a perfect group of people. It’s people—different people brought together by Jesus and learning to live and love like Him.

Welcome to Week 5 of Isn’t She Beautiful? In this Crossroads service, we turn our attention outward and explore what happens when the Church is healthy and fully alive. Our participation in the body isn’t meant to stop within the walls of the Church—it should overflow into the world around us. When we live with generosity, serve with joy, and genuinely care for others, the Church becomes a visible reflection of God’s love. We’ll discover how a healthy Church doesn’t just make a difference for those who are already part of it—it draws others toward God.

Welcome to Week 4 of Isn’t She Beautiful? In this Crossroads service, we explore John 13:34-35, where Jesus calls us to love one another as He has loved us. Belonging requires loving—a truth that’s easy to remember but much harder to live out. We’ll ask the question, “What does love require of me?” and discover that authentic community means extending grace, especially to the people who require a little extra grace from us. Because in every group, there are a few people who make loving others a little harder—and Jesus calls us to love them anyway.

Welcome to Week 3 of Isn’t She Beautiful? In this Crossroads service, we continue in 1 Corinthians 12:21–27, where Paul reminds us that every part of the body is essential. The Church isn’t something we simply attend or observe—we each have a part to play. When one person hurts, we suffer together. When one succeeds, we celebrate together. We’ll explore what it means to move from simply consuming church to actively participating in the life of the body, discovering how much more beautiful the Church becomes when we each take our place.

Welcome to Week 2 of Isn’t She Beautiful? In this Crossroads service, Kevin Syes takes us into 1 Corinthians 12:12 and following, where Paul gives us a picture of the Church as one body made up of many different parts. We discover that every person has a unique role to play, that no part is insignificant, and that God has intentionally brought us together so we can function as one body, united in Christ.

Welcome to Week 1 of Isn’t She Beautiful? In this full Crossroads service, Reid Robinette takes us into Ephesians 2:11–22 and God’s vision for His Church. We discover a community where people who might otherwise have little in common are brought together as citizens of the same Kingdom, members of the same family, and people being built together as a dwelling place for God.

Today we're concluding Ducks in a Row: Reordered Loves, our series examining what happens when good things find themselves in the wrong order in our hearts.

In Week 3, First Love, Jono Contestabile takes us to Jesus' words to the church in Ephesus in Revelation 2:1–7.

On the surface, this church was doing everything right. They worked hard. They persevered. They cared about truth. They endured hardship in Jesus' name.

But underneath all that activity, something had shifted.

Jesus tells them: “You have forsaken the love you had at first.”

It's possible to maintain the activities that love once taught us long after love is no longer what's motivating them.

So how do we recognize when our affection for Jesus has shifted—and how do we return?

Remember. Repent. Repeat.

And ultimately, remember where our love began:

“We love because He first loved us.”

Join us for worship, communion and the conclusion of Ducks in a Row: Reordered Loves.
