Our vision
AS CHRIST-CENTERED PEOPLE, WE WILL LIVE BY FAITH IN PURSUIT OF DEEPLY TRANSFORMING LIVES THROUGH JESUS FOR THE SAKE OF THE WORLD.
AS CHRIST-CENTERED PEOPLE
2 Peter 1:3
By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know him, the one who called us to himself by means of his marvelous glory and excellence.
Colossians 3:17
And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father.
WE WILL LIVE BY FAITH
Hebrews 11:1
“Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see.”
We believe:
IN PURSUIT OF DEEPLY TRANSFORMING LIVES THROUGH JESUS
Matthew 22:36-40
“Teacher, which is the most important commandment in the law of Moses?” Jesus replied, “‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ The entire law and all the demands of the prophets are based on these two commandments.”
1 John 4:15-21
All who declare that Jesus is the Son of God have God living in them, and they live in God. We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love. God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them. And as we live in God, our love grows more perfect. So we will not be afraid on the day of judgment, but we can face him with confidence because we live like Jesus here in this world. Such love has no fear, because perfect love expels all fear. If we are afraid, it is for fear of punishment, and this shows that we have not fully experienced his perfect love. We love each other because he loved us first. If someone says, “I love God,” but hates a fellow believer, that person is a liar; for if we don’t love people we can see, how can we love God, whom we cannot see? And he has given us this command: Those who love God must also love their fellow believers.
> We value deep, beneath the surface life transformation. We aren’t about doing the same old things with a religious veneer. We aim to grow deeply in love for God, others, and ourselves.
> We are all invited to look beneath the surface of our lives to experience the deep, transformational power of Jesus.
> We value a spirituality committed to loving well. At the core of the Christian faith is love. Jesus commands us to love God first and with our entire being. He also commands us to love our neighbor as we love ourselves. We learn to love God well when we slow down our lives to cultivate a deeply loving union with Jesus. Our pursuit of deep loving transformation involves learning skills that help us love others well, including ourselves, as we communicate honestly, authentically and with integrity. These skills are taught in our Emotionally Healthy Relationships classes.
> Our emotional health and spiritual
life in Jesus are intricately connected. We have discovered it is impossible to
be spiritually mature while remaining emotionally immature.
Ephesians 4:15-16
Instead, we will speak the truth in love, growing in every way more and more like Christ, who is the head of his body, the church. He makes the whole body fit together perfectly. As each part does its own special work, it helps the other parts grow, so that the whole body is healthy and growing and full of love.
2 Peter 3:18
Rather, you must grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. All glory to him, both now and forever! Amen.
1 John 2:14
I have written to you who are God’s children because you know the Father. I have written to you who are mature in the faith because you know Christ, who existed from the beginning. I have written to you who are young in the faith because you are strong. God’s word lives in your hearts, and you have won your battle with the evil one.
FOR THE SAKE OF THE WORLD
John 3:16-17
“For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him.”
Matthew 28:18-20
Jesus came and told his disciples, “I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”
John 14:6
Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through Me.”
Luke 19:10
“For the Son of Man came to seek and to save those who are lost.”
This we believe
A statement of beliefs, or a church’s theology, is always a difficult proposition. Christians, throughout the ages, have held a wide variety of beliefs, and have often differed in their personal theology. CrossRoads strives to center our beliefs on Jesus Christ and His teachings. To understand our statement of faith, these two pieces are vital:
