"Have you noticed that God often moves in the margins before He moves in the mainstream? In Acts 8–10, God explodes the gospel beyond Jerusalem in ways nobody expected: through a sorcerer, an Ethiopian eunuch, a persecutor named Saul, and a Roman soldier named Cornelius. These three chapters mark a major turning point in church history—the gospel breaking every cultural and religious barrier to fulfill Jesus' promise in Acts 1:8: “You will be my witnesses… to the ends of the earth.”  

In today's message, Pastor Josh is bringing us a word from the book of Acts. Check out this short intro from his teaching:  "Let me ask you something: Have you ever received a promise that changed everything? Maybe a promise from a parent, a coach, a mentor. Promises are powerful. But what if I told you that one of the greatest promises ever made is found in Acts 2, and it's not just for them—it's for you, your children, and generations to come?" Join us as we explore this promise from scripture in this powerful message, "The Promise Still Stands".

Luke 23 From Pastor Joshua's teaching notes, "John Stott once said, “The cross is the clearest revelation of God's love for sinners, and it is also the most explicit challenge to our indifference and cowardice.”  As the Roman authority charged with making the decision regarding Jesus's sentence, Pilate's reluctance to act reveals a deep truth—indifference to Jesus is still a decision. Pilate didn't openly reject Jesus, but his reluctance to take a stand meant he rejected Him nonetheless. Pilate wanted to be popular, not right. He was more concerned about reputation than he was about character.  Jesus doesn't give us the option of neutrality. We're either for Him or against Him. The same thing happens in our lives. We might not actively oppose Jesus, but if we don't choose to follow Him, we're still choosing to reject Him." https://vimeo.com/1075323571?share=copy#t=0

A     Today we're taking some time to focus on what every athletic coach, every musician, and every teacher like to talk about—today we're going to talk about the fundamentals.         At Crossgate Church, we've got some fundamentals: ·        We've got our definition of a disciple: “A disciple is a growing follower of Jesus, who lives and loves like Jesus and leads others to follow him.” ·        We've got seven priorities: Glory, Truth, Love, Prayer, Community, Generosity, and Reach. ·        We've got a simple question: “What's your next step?”  ·        We've got a short, concise, and focused purpose statement: “We make more and better disciples for Jesus Christ.”  D      Matthew 28:18-20 – “And Jesus came and said to them, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.

Join us as we conclude our teaching series based on Ephesians, truly one of the greatest “books” in the New Testament. Lot's can be said about this book—and we WILL say a lot in this study—but the key theme throughout the letter is “the power of God's grace.” In fact, the word “grace”—pound for pound—appears more in the letter to the Ephesians than any other book in the Bible.  We hope you have been encouraged and have drawn closer to God through this study.  (Today's Scripture: Ephesians 6:10-18)
