Jesus is not intimidated by your mess. In Mark 5, we see Him meet a man who was isolated, hurting, and beyond the help of everyone around him, then restore him with compassion and authority.

Life can leave us feeling trapped by shame, pain, anxiety, destructive patterns, or the question, “Why can’t I catch a break?” This message looks at Mark 5:1–20 and reminds us that no one is too far gone for Jesus. He sees people others avoid, brings freedom where human effort falls short, and gives restored people a new purpose. As part of the Pour Me series, this sermon challenges us to move beyond a “poor me” mindset and become devoted followers of Jesus who share what He has done in our lives. Jesus meets us personally, calls us to repent and follow Him, and sends us to live as witnesses of His grace.

What do your time, money, and attention reveal about what you treasure most? Mary’s gift to Jesus in John 12:1–8 shows us that true generosity is not driven by pressure or obligation. It flows from worship, gratitude, and a settled belief that Jesus is worth more than anything we hold.

In this message, Mark Magee explores Mary’s costly act of devotion and what it teaches us about humility, intentionality, sacrifice, and lasting Kingdom impact. When we remember what Jesus has done for us, generosity becomes more than a financial decision. It becomes part of our discipleship. Whether you are exploring faith or seeking to grow as a follower of Jesus, this message will challenge you to give your best to the One who gave Himself for you

What does it look like to move from a “poor me” mindset to a life that is poured out for Jesus and others? In this message from Philippians 2, Mark Magee shows how joy, humility, and surrender can change the way we respond when life does not go our way.

Paul writes, “Even if I am being poured out like a drink offering… I am glad and rejoice with all of you” (Philippians 2:17–18). Rather than living from entitlement, comparison, grumbling, or self-protection, Jesus invites us into a better way: a “pour me” life that gives itself away for God’s glory and the good of people.

This Bible teaching on surrender and service will help you see that your life does not have to be centered on getting your way. You can become someone who shines with hope, holds firmly to the word of life, and points others to Jesus.

In this Intern Sunday message, Maddox Law walks through Acts 1:8 and asks what it really means to be a witness for Jesus today.

Maddox explores three honest questions: What does it mean to be a witness to the ends of the earth, to your neighbor, and to yourself. He shares stories of costly faith in places like Nigeria, everyday conversations in a Delaware barbershop, and personal struggles with mental health and family pain. Through it all, he points to the call to die to self, lean fully on the Holy Spirit’s power, and join God’s global mission so people from every nation can worship Jesus. Acts 1:8 becomes a practical invitation to see your whole life as a witness to Christ.

This message, “One Step,” shows how God uses one step of obedience to change eternity, using the story of Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch in Acts 8. If you’ve ever wondered whether God sees you, or whether your one small step could actually matter, this message will help you see how God arranges “divine appointments” and invites you to join Him, Philip leaves a thriving ministry in Samaria because the Holy Spirit sends him to a desert road, where he meets a rejected, spiritually hungry man from Ethiopia. Through listening, asking questions, and opening Scripture, Philip points this man to Jesus and shows what it looks like to obey the Spirit one step at a time. 

Whether you feel unseen, stuck, or unsure what God wants you to do next, this teaching from The Crossing in Milton, Delaware offers practical, Bible-centered guidance for following Jesus in real life.

Stephen’s life shows what happens when an ordinary person is completely surrendered to Jesus and filled with the Holy Spirit. This message walks through his story in Acts 6–7 and helps you see how a “family resemblance” to Jesus grows in real life.

We look at six qualities in Stephen’s life and how they helped him face criticism, conflict, and even death with courage, grace, and peace. You’ll see that Stephen wasn’t special because of his personality, but because he was full of the Spirit and shaped by time with God. This is practical Bible teaching for anyone who wants their faith to show up in everyday pressure, relationships, and decisions.

Conflict in the church is real, but it doesn’t have to derail the mission of Jesus. This message looks at Acts 6:1–7 and shows how the early church faced tension, protected unity, and kept the gospel moving forward.

Through this teaching, you’ll see why “what’s next” matters more than “what’s past” when a church is growing and pressure rises. You’ll hear about common challenges churches face today, how the enemy uses distraction and dissension, and how wise, biblical leadership keeps people cared for while staying focused on making disciples.

This episode is part of our Acts series at The Crossing, walking through how the mission of Jesus keeps moving forward even when there is pressure, pain, and resistance. This message looks at Acts 5:17–42 and shows how the Holy Spirit gives ordinary disciples power to obey, speak, and keep going when following Jesus is costly.

In Acts 5, the apostles are arrested, miraculously freed, and sent right back into the same dangerous place to “tell the people all about this new life.” They choose obedience over comfort, courage over fear, and trust over self‑protection. Through their example, we see what it means to be witnesses in real life: not perfect, but Spirit‑empowered men and women who keep showing up where Jesus sends them.

Pretending can be fun when you are a kid. It is destructive when it becomes the way you live your faith.

In this message, “No More Pretending,” we walk through Acts 5:1–16 and the story of Ananias and Sapphira to see how hypocrisy, image, and spiritual shortcuts can wreck a church and a soul. We look at the difference between real devotion and looking devoted, and why God cares so deeply about integrity in His people.

What actually makes a man, beyond the stereotypes, highlight reels, and pressure to measure up?

Biblical manhood is not about John Wayne-style toughness, image, or success, but about a life formed by Jesus and His Word. This message helps the men of The Crossing, and anyone listening, trade cultural caricatures for God’s design for men who love, serve, lead, and live with Christlike character.
