Thanks for checking the blog and staying plugged in to what’s happening at Crosspoint. We are far from perfect but we’re doing our best to help as many as possible follow Jesus. Yesterday was a very exciting day. Here’s the look back:
- Baptisms!!!! 4 exclamation marks. One for each of the people who were baptized yesterday.
Baptisms are my absolute most favorite thing to do in ministry. I love seeing people step forward and go public for Jesus. Congratulations again to those who took this very important step/plunge!
- We kicked off our new series, “Once Upon A Time”! It was one of my favorite Sundays ever in the past 5 years. Yep. God’s presence was with us, worship was powerful, and it seemed like a lot of people were doing business with God. The tag line of the series, “write a better story”, is going to be a life changer for many. Forget about your past, what can your future look like if you let God script it?? Anything is possible!
- We’ll use a different parable of Jesus each Sunday in the series. Yesterday’s parable was a more obscure, and I think hilarious, parable, “The Parable of the Friend at Night”. No doesn’t always mean no. Persistence pays off. Ask. Seek. Knock. Receive. Find. Open. Pray about it, look around, and make some noise.
- Yesterday’s video testimony was off the charts impacting. Huge props to Chris Johnson for sharing his story with us and showing us how we can write a better story when we trust God with our lives. Not a dry eye in the place as we watched Chris’s video. Be looking for the video on our Vimeo site and forward it to everyone you know. God is alive and he is working!!
- Huge thanks to AJ Guptill and Brandon Ingraham for creating our best looking stage and lighting design yet!
- Huge crowd yesterday. One of our largest non-holiday non-special event attendances ever. Invite someone this week. Really. It’s a great time of year to invite someone and this series is going to be huge. Found people find people.
- Get in a group, register for Uprising, give like never before, get to know new people, pray hard, thank God for what he is doing and ask how you can be a part of the future!! Great days ahead Crosspoint!

Yesterday was amazing !! I just wanted to encourage anyone like me that was baptized as a baby to take the plunge. I have been on a Holy Spirit high ever since. Thank you Crosspoint.
Awesome.
Sunday service at Crosspoint was one of the most powerful sermons I have ever heard. Way to go Crosspoint!
