Crossroads Church

Who we put in the center of our bracket matters, right? Well, no matter how terrible your bracket was this year, there’s a winning bracket out there. When we put Jesus in the center of our lives, we get a light that pushes out all the darkness.

Brothers are difficult, that’s no secret. But there’s a different perspective on brothers that we’re unpacking, and it’s not what you think. The story of Joseph and his brothers is the story of you and your brother. How did he start a poor kid who got thrown in a cave, only to become the second most powerful person in Egypt living in luxury? Today we’ll go back to the beginning of the Story in Genesis to find out.

On the surface, the story of Noah and the Ark looks like an “end of the world” conspiracy-theorist, turn or burn, doomsday preacher scenario. But it’s much more than that, it’s actually the key to understanding God's plan for our lives.

God wants to wrestle with you, and He might let you win. In the book of Genesis Jacob wrestles with God and God gives him a blessing. Brian takes a journey into the wilderness to explore Jacobs' story and find out what the heck is going on. 

Did you think that when you graduated from school you were done with tests? Sorry to burst your bubble, God gives us tests and he wants to know how we will respond. Today, Brian goes on a journey to the top of a mountain to tell the story of a famous test in the Bible and how that story can unlock God’s Promises in your life.

What do people think of me? We can find ourselves asking this question over and over when the world tells us we need to look or act this certain way. We become so uncomfortable that we hide and try to blend in with everything else. How do we stop hiding and accept who God made us to be? Join us today as Hannah teaches what it means to be truly accepted

Who am I? Many of us spend our whole lives wrestling with that question of identity. To make it worse, every voice in our world is relentlessly screaming an opinion at us. So how do we answer it? We have to go back to the beginning—to our origin. Join us today as Brian talks about where we came from, and what that means for where we’re headed.

Nobody thought it would happen. After decades in the making, we’re finally here. That’s right it’s the 20th Super Bowl of Preaching! Get ready for music, commercials, preaching, and a little football.

Demons…angels…princes—the Bible has some weird stuff in it. It would be easy to just write it off as irrelevant nonsense. Yet right in the middle of this weirdness, there’s a surprisingly compelling message for us thousands of years later. Join us today as Brian talks about how God uses the supernatural to show us that we’re loved.

We’re exhausted, overwhelmed, and constantly on edge, right? Each day brings new chaos with no end in sight—which leaves us wondering who or what to trust. Ironically enough, that’s exactly the question we SHOULD be asking. Join us today as Chuck walks through what our misplaced trust is costing us and how to turn that trust toward Jesus.

“Predictable.” Ugh. That’s an insult, right? After all, who wants to be predictable? It might feel bad on a personality quiz, but it turns out that having predictable patterns is a major way to create growth in our lives. Join us today as Brian talks about how Daniel’s predictability led to his success—and a close encounter with a lion.

When we hit crunch time, trouble rears its ugly head, and when it’s time to stand up for what’s right, what will you do? How do you know? Here’s the thing—if we wait until that moment to decide, then we’re cruising for failure. Join us today as Hannah talks about how to stay faithful in the face of the bullies, enemies, and opposition that comes our way.

Isolation…a crappy Job…flurona—all of us have an easy list of reasons why this year could be destined to suck. In fact, these days it’s reasonable and normal to assume things are awful and won’t change. But is that actually the truth? Join us today as Brian talks about how we have the power to change our lives regardless of the terrible circumstances we face.

New year, new me…or at least that’s what we say every year. We make resolutions, we make plans, and all too often nothing really changes. Yet God promises something better—but how do we get it? Join us as Brian talks about the pathway to a different life in 2022. 

We all want the perfect Christmas. An Instagram worthy tree, lots of presents, and spending the day in sweatpants. But when your day is filled with awkward family get togethers, the stress of finding the perfect gift, and your Uncle's questionable eggnog it can feel anything but perfect. Amid all the chaos of the season, Christmas is about the Jesus coming into the world and promising us peace. Join us today as we walk through the story that changed everything.

“Peace on earth, good will to men.” Yeah, right—not these days. How is our Christmas supposed to be peaceful when it feels like there’s opposition and resistance everywhere we look? Everywhere we turn, there’s someone or something else tearing apart our hopes for peace this Christmas. If that’s how you feel, then you’re not alone—this is exactly the sort of situation Jesus himself arrived in two thousand years ago. Today Brian talks about how we let go of our plans and make room for the peace Jesus offers.

Christmas can be as dark as the shortened days outside our window. We want the hope and joy of the holidays, but good luck finding it amidst all the hurt and noise screaming for our attention. What if there is hope to be found, but we just haven’t seen it yet? Today Kyle takes us on a journey through time, space, and an angel’s perspective to see if maybe the reason why we can’t find hope is because we’re looking at the wrong time.

Did you know that Jesus wasn’t the only miracle baby in the Christmas story? Today we’re going to tell the story of Elizabeth—a woman who was too old and barren to have a kid, at least until God showed up and did something incredible. Join us as Hannah tells the story of how God’s goodness showed up in the least likely of places.

We all know the Christmas story—Jesus, Mary, the manger, some shepherds, and so on. But what if we told you that the Christmas story started way earlier than that nativity scene? Turns out that we aren’t the only ones waiting for Christmas. Join us today as Paco talks about the good things we can find in the waiting.

The status quo just isn’t cutting it anymore. Everybody and everything is flawed and broke—no surprise there. If that’s the case, how do we know what to trust? Which messages should we listen to, and which should we reject? Turns out, Jesus had an answer to that—and it often meant turning the religious norms on their head. Join us as Brian talks about how we can have a clear, solid foundation for our lives.
