This week, Pastor Will reflects on Matthew 21:23–32, where the people who had arrived can't give Jesus a straight answer, and a son who said no changes his mind and goes. Saying yes to God comes easily. The harder thing is letting what God is doing in unexpected people come to matter to us, enough that we're willing to be changed by them. For a church tempted to think it's almost there, Jesus' question is still open: What do you think?Scripture references: Exodus 17:1–7; Psalm 78:1–4, 12–16; and Matthew 21:23–32 “REMEMBER ME” -- CCLI Song # 3178072  |  Mark Schultz  |  © 2000 Mark Schultz Music  |  For use solely with the SongSelect® Terms of Use.

Many believers wonder what it truly means to follow God and walk in obedience each day. In Matthew chapter 3, Jesus enters the Jordan River to be baptized by John, setting a clear example for our lives. This divine moment reveals the entire Trinity, showing the Father's love, the Spirit's presence, and the Son's dedication to fulfilling all righteousness. Through this foundational act, Jesus identifies with humanity and models the path of obedience.Why was Jesus baptized, and why does this practice remain essential for your walk of faith today? Watch this message to discover five compelling reasons to follow Christ's footsteps and reflect His image.Connect with Crossroads Community Church:Website: https://lifeatcrossroads.orgInstagram:   / crossroadscommunitychurch  Facebook:   / lifeatcrossroads  Give Online:https://lifeatcrossroads.org/giveonlineLicensing Information:CCLI License #2915685CCS WORSHIPcast License #9466Crossroads Community Church holds a CCS WORSHIPcast License, which grants permission to publicly play, perform, and stream musical compositions controlled by ASCAP, BMI, and SESAC in accordance with CCS License Terms and Conditions.

Join us as we dig deeper into last Sunday's sermon from Pastor Gabe Kasper "Worship and Song" and hear from Amy Duncan and Nate Zuellig on "Revelation Song". Digging Deeper Questions: Have you ever been in a hard time or stressful situation and found singing or a song recenter you in what matters most?    Do you sing in worship? Why or why not?   What does it mean to sing from the heart?    Jesus sings on his way to the cross, how might singing shape what's in front of you this week? Scripture Reading: Colossians 3:12-17 12 Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, 13 bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. 14 And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. 15 And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful. 16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. 17 And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Dr. Doug Elrick teaches from John 18:28-40 where Jesus faces the Roman governor, contrasting God's absolute truth with the world's notions of determining what is true, and the way we can see ourselves in Barabas, the criminal who was released instead of Jesus.

Pastor Jim shared a message from Acts 12 about the danger of sinful pride and the freedom found in godly humility. Through the downfall of King Herod, he showed how the pursuit of human approval can lead us away from God, while understanding our identity in Christ frees us to serve others, point people to Jesus, and live for God's approval.New here or need prayer?We would love to connect with you. Visit: https://form.church/connectionGive online: https://subsplash.com/u/-QJD4RD/give

Join us as we dig deeper into last Sunday's sermon from Pastor Nicholas González "Worship and The Sacramental Life" and hear from Amy Duncan and Nate Zuellig on "Give Me Jesus". Digging Deeper Questions: The sermon describes worship as a place where God "re-centers" our lives. What tends to pull your life off-center during the week, and how has worship helped re-orient you?   Read 1 Corinthians 10:20–21. The sermon describes achievement, approval, escape, relationships, and control as possible "other tables" we return to. Which of these, or something else, do you think is especially tempting in our culture? Why?   The sermon says, "Who we receive here is meant to shape who we become out there." Where do you find it hardest to connect your Sunday worship with the way you live the rest of the week?   Read 1 Corinthians 10:31. What is one ordinary part of your life this week: studying, working, eating, driving, spending time with friends, something else, where you could intentionally remember and reflect God's grace? Scripture Reading: 1 Corinthians 10:14-31 14 Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry. 15 I speak as to sensible people; judge for yourselves what I say. 16 The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? The bread that we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ? 17 Because there is one bread, we who are many are one body, for we all partake of the one bread. 18 Consider the people of Israel: are not those who eat the sacrifices participants in the altar? 19 What do I imply then? That food offered to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything? 20 No, I imply that what pagans sacrifice they offer to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be participants with demons. 21 You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of demons. 22 Shall we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?   23 "All things are lawful," but not all things are helpful. "All things are lawful," but not all things build up. 24 Let no one seek his own good, but the good of his neighbor. 25 Eat whatever is sold in the meat market without raising any question on the ground of conscience. 26 For "the earth is the Lord's, and the fullness thereof." 27 If one of the unbelievers invites you to dinner and you are disposed to go, eat whatever is set before you without raising any question on the ground of conscience. 28 But if someone says to you, "This has been offered in sacrifice," then do not eat it, for the sake of the one who informed you, and for the sake of conscience— 29 I do not mean your conscience, but his. For why should my liberty be determined by someone else's conscience? 30 If I partake with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of that for which I give thanks?   31 So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

This week, Pastor Will reflects on Jesus' parable of the unforgiving servant in Matthew 18. When Peter asks how many times he has to forgive, Jesus answers with a number too big to keep on a ledger — and tells a story about a debt too large to ever repay. What if forgiveness was never a limit to reach or a receipt to file away, but a mercy still being poured out on us, slowly remaking us into people who can finally hand it on?Scripture references: Exodus 14:19-22, 26-31; Psalm 114; and Matthew 18:21-35“YOUR GRACE IS ENOUGH” -- CCLI Song # 4477026  |  MattMaher  |  © 2003 Thankyou Music (Admin. by Capitol CMG Publishing)  |  spiritandsong.com  |  For use solely with the SongSelect® Terms of Use.

This systematic fulfillment of scripture demonstrates God's sovereign control even in the face of earthly opposition and wickedness.How does the rejection of Jesus pave the way for our own acceptance?

Do you struggle with this?    Jesus is the messiah who brings us into God's presence. How does his grace make a difference in a life of worship?  Scripture Reading: John 4:19-26 19 The woman said to him, "Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet. 20 Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship." 21 Jesus said to her, "Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father. 22 You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, for salvation is from the Jews. 23 But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship him. 24 God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth." 25 The woman said to him, "I know that Messiah is coming (he who is called Christ). When he comes, he will tell us all things." 26 Jesus said to her, "I who speak to you am he." Intro/Outro Song: "Only One" Nate Zuellig ULC Artist In Residence    "The Joy" The Belonging Co (feat.

Digging Deeper Questions: What is worship? How do you define it?    What are some common objects of worship we can default to?    How does the gospel free us from false worship? Do you have an example?  Scripture Reading: Romans 1:18-25 18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. 19 For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. 20 For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. 21 For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools, 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.   24 Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, 25 because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever!

This week, Pastor Will reflects on Matthew 16, where Peter — who just got it right — hears Jesus name the cross ahead and answers with the hardest word the language has: never. But Peter's "never" isn't rebellion; it's a theology, a picture of God he loves too much to let change. What might it look like to bring your own never with you, and still fall in behind the One who goes first?Scripture references: Exodus 3:1-6, 13-15; Psalm 105:1-6, 23-26,45b; Matthew 16:21-28“CHRIST IS ENOUGH” -- CCLI Song # 6514035  |  Jonas Myrin | Reuben Morgan  |  © 2012 Hillsong MP Songs (Admin. by Capitol CMG Publishing)  |  Hillsong Music Publishing Australia (Admin. by Capitol CMG Publishing)  |  For use solely with theSongSelect® Terms of Use.

Join us as we dig deeper into last Sunday's sermon from Pastor Nicholas González "The Gospel Rescued" and hear from Amy Duncan and Nya Martinez on "Promises".   Digging Deeper Questions: When have you experienced God working in a way you did not expect? How did that experience shape your faith?   Where do you see opportunities for the Gospel to keep moving forward through ordinary conversations, relationships, or moments in your life?    What helps you remember that your identity and hope are secure in Jesus, even when circumstances around you feel uncertain?   How might knowing that Jesus has rescued you change the way you approach someone who is struggling, afraid, or in need of hope?   Scripture Reading: Acts 12:1-19 1 About that time Herod the king laid violent hands on some who belonged to the church. 2 He killed James the brother of John with the sword, 3 and when he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to arrest Peter also. This was during the days of Unleavened Bread. 4 And when he had seized him, he put him in prison, delivering him over to four squads of soldiers to guard him, intending after the Passover to bring him out to the people. 5 So Peter was kept in prison, but earnest prayer for him was made to God by the church.   6 Now when Herod was about to bring him out, on that very night, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and sentries before the door were guarding the prison. 7 And behold, an angel of the Lord stood next to him, and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him, saying, "Get up quickly." And the chains fell off his hands. 8 And the angel said to him, "Dress yourself and put on your sandals." And he did so. And he said to him, "Wrap your cloak around you and follow me." 9 And he went out and followed him. He did not know that what was being done by the angel was real, but thought he was seeing a vision. 10 When they had passed the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate leading into the city. It opened for them of its own accord, and they went out and went along one street, and immediately the angel left him. 11 When Peter came to himself, he said, "Now I am sure that the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from the hand of Herod and from all that the Jewish people were expecting."   12 When he realized this, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose other name was Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying. 13 And when he knocked at the door of the gateway, a servant girl named Rhoda came to answer. 14 Recognizing Peter's voice, in her joy she did not open the gate but ran in and reported that Peter was standing at the gate. 15 They said to her, "You are out of your mind." But she kept insisting that it was so, and they kept saying, "It is his angel!" 16 But Peter continued knocking, and when they opened, they saw him and were amazed. 17 But motioning to them with his hand to be silent, he described to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, "Tell these things to James and to the brothers." Then he departed and went to another place.   18 Now when day came, there was no little disturbance among the soldiers over what had become of Peter. 19 And after Herod searched for him and did not find him, he examined the sentries and ordered that they should be put to death. Then he went down from Judea to Caesarea and spent time there.    Intro/Outro Song: "Only One" Nate Zuellig ULC Artist In Residence    "Promises" Maverick City Music CCLI Song # 7149439   CCLI License # 11254293

This week, Pastor Will reflects on Matthew 16, where Jesus asks the disciples the one question no one can answer secondhand: "Who do you say that I am?" Peter answers — and Jesus builds his church not on Peter's strength, but on the true thing Peter said. The mercy is that you don't have to be solid to say it.Scripture References: Exodus 1:8-2:10; Psalm 124; and Matthew 16:13-20,“CORNERSTONE” – CCLI Song # 6158927  |  Edward Mote | Eric Liljero | Jonas Myrin | Reuben Morgan | William Batchelder Bradbury  |  © 2011 Hillsong MP Songs (Admin. by Capitol CMG Publishing)  |  Hillsong Music Publishing Australia (Admin. by Capitol CMG Publishing)  |  Hillsong Music Publishing UK (Admin. by Capitol CMG Publishing)  |  For use solely with the SongSelect® Terms of Use.

Matthew 1:1-17 | August 23, 2026 | Pastor Todd SmithThis message kicks off a new study of the Gospel of Matthew.

Join us as we dig deeper into last Sunday's sermon from Pastor Gabe Kasper "The Gospel for the Greeks" and hear from Amy Duncan and Nate Zuellig on "You Walk With Me".   Digging Deeper Questions: Where/to whom has God sent you?   What does "Spiritual depth" look like in your life?   An "other focus" doesn't mean we spend our lives worried about what others think of us, or as people pleasers, rather it means we live lives looking to serve others in love. What is challenging about that?   How does receiving grace transform our lives?   Scripture Reading: Acts 11:19-30 19 Now those who were scattered because of the persecution that arose over Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia and Cyprus and Antioch, speaking the word to no one except Jews. 20 But there were some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who on coming to Antioch spoke to the Hellenists also, preaching the Lord Jesus. 21 And the hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number who believed turned to the Lord. 22 The report of this came to the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch. 23 When he came and saw the grace of God, he was glad, and he exhorted them all to remain faithful to the Lord with steadfast purpose, 24 for he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a great many people were added to the Lord. 25 So Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Saul, 26 and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. For a whole year they met with the church and taught a great many people. And in Antioch the disciples were first called Christians.   27 Now in these days prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch. 28 And one of them named Agabus stood up and foretold by the Spirit that there would be a great famine over all the world (this took place in the days of Claudius). 29 So the disciples determined, every one according to his ability, to send relief to the brothers living in Judea. 30 And they did so, sending it to the elders by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.

This week, Pastor Will reflects on Matthew 15 and the Canaanite woman who won't be sent away. Jesus draws a hard line — only the children's bread — and she answers that even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from the table, showing a faith he calls "great." The people we're quickest to turn away are often the ones God uses to teach us who he is.Scripture references: Genesis 45:1-15; Psalm 133; Matthew 15:21-28“IT REALLY IS AMAZING GRACE” -- CCLI Song # 7260988  |  David Crowder | Jonathan Smith | Phil Wickham |  © 2025 Capitol CMG Genesis; Inot Music; sixsteps Music; Be Essential Songs; Cashagamble Jet Music; Phil Wickham Music; Simply Global Songs | For use solely with the SongSelect® Terms of Use.

Join us as we dig deeper into last Sunday's sermon from Pastor Gabe Kasper "The Gospel for the Gentiles" and hear from Amy Duncan and Nate Zuellig on "Praise The Lord Forever". Digging Deeper Questions: Who is someone that helped you grow in your faith?   Has there been a time where you felt clear on what God was calling you to do? How did you respond? How did it go?   Jesus is the God who comes to us. Where have you seen Jesus meet you? Scripture Reading: Acts 10:1-16, 34-48 1 At Caesarea there was a man named Cornelius, a centurion of what was known as the Italian Cohort, 2 a devout man who feared God with all his household, gave alms generously to the people, and prayed continually to God. 3 About the ninth hour of the day he saw clearly in a vision an angel of God come in and say to him, "Cornelius." 4 And he stared at him in terror and said, "What is it, Lord?" And he said to him, "Your prayers and your alms have ascended as a memorial before God. 5 And now send men to Joppa and bring one Simon who is called Peter. 6 He is lodging with one Simon, a tanner, whose house is by the sea." 7 When the angel who spoke to him had departed, he called two of his servants and a devout soldier from among those who attended him, 8 and having related everything to them, he sent them to Joppa.   9 The next day, as they were on their journey and approaching the city, Peter went up on the housetop about the sixth hour to pray. 10 And he became hungry and wanted something to eat, but while they were preparing it, he fell into a trance 11 and saw the heavens opened and something like a great sheet descending, being let down by its four corners upon the earth. 12 In it were all kinds of animals and reptiles and birds of the air. 13 And there came a voice to him: "Rise, Peter; kill and eat." 14 But Peter said, "By no means, Lord; for I have never eaten anything that is common or unclean." 15 And the voice came to him again a second time, "What God has made clean, do not call common." 16 This happened three times, and the thing was taken up at once to heaven.   34 So Peter opened his mouth and said: "Truly I understand that God shows no partiality, 35 but in every nation anyone who fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him. 36 As for the word that he sent to Israel, preaching good news of peace through Jesus Christ (he is Lord of all), 37 you yourselves know what happened throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee after the baptism that John proclaimed: 38 how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power. He went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him. 39 And we are witnesses of all that he did both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They put him to death by hanging him on a tree, 40 but God raised him on the third day and made him to appear, 41 not to all the people but to us who had been chosen by God as witnesses, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead. 42 And he commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that he is the one appointed by God to be judge of the living and the dead. 43 To him all the prophets bear witness that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name."   44 While Peter was still saying these things, the Holy Spirit fell on all who heard the word. 45 And the believers from among the circumcised who had come with Peter were amazed, because the gift of the Holy Spirit was poured out even on the Gentiles. 46 For they were hearing them speaking in tongues and extolling God. Then Peter declared, 47 "Can anyone withhold water for baptizing these people, who have received the Holy Spirit just as we have?" 48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to remain for some days. Intro/Outro Song: "Only One" Nate Zuellig ULC Artist In Residence    "Praise The Lord Forever" Pat Barrett CCLI Song # 7260101   CCLI License # 11254293

This week, Pastor Will reflects on Matthew 14 — the story we've been reading backwards. We make it about Peter's nerve, the brave step out of the boat, but the one who climbs out is the one who sinks, and all his courage gives him is three words: "Lord, save me." A word for the storms that don't wait for a good day, and the name that comes walking across the water anyway.Scripture references: Genesis 37:1–4, 12–28; Psalm105:1–6, 16–22, 45b; and Matthew 14:22–33 “LORD I LIFT YOUR NAME ON HIGH” -- CCLI Song # 117947 |  Rick Founds  |  © 1989 Universal Music - Brentwood Benson Publishing (Admin. by Brentwood-Benson Music Publishing, Inc.)  |  For use solely with the SongSelect® Terms of Use.

Join us as we dig deeper into last Sunday's sermon from Pastor Randy Duncan "The Gospel for the Persecutor" and hear from Amy Duncan and Nya Martinez on "Christ Be Magnified". Digging Deeper Questions: Saul wasn't looking for Jesus. Jesus was looking for Saul. When have you experienced God pursuing you, even when you weren't seeking Him? How does Saul's story change the way you think about people who seem "too far gone" for God?   Ananias had every reason to fear Saul, yet his first words were, "Brother Saul." Is there someone in your life whom you've quietly labeled as beyond hope, forgiveness, or acceptance? What would it look like to see that person through the eyes of Jesus?   Saul's encounter with Jesus didn't simply improve his life. It completely re-centered it. What area of your life is Jesus currently turning "right side up"? Where is He calling you to surrender control?   Jesus told Ananias that Saul would suffer for His name, but He also promised His presence. How does knowing that Christ is with us in suffering change the way we face hardship or opposition for our faith?   The sermon reminds us that the Gospel is bigger than our sin, our failures, and our assumptions about others. This week, who is your "Saul"? What is one intentional step you can take to pray for, encourage, or reach out to someone who needs to experience the pursuing, embracing, and transforming grace of Jesus? Scripture Reading: Acts 9:1-22 1 But Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest 2 and asked him for letters to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any belonging to the Way, men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem. 3 Now as he went on his way, he approached Damascus, and suddenly a light from heaven shone around him. 4 And falling to the ground, he heard a voice saying to him, "Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?" 5 And he said, "Who are you, Lord?" And he said, "I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. 6 But rise and enter the city, and you will be told what you are to do." 7 The men who were traveling with him stood speechless, hearing the voice but seeing no one. 8 Saul rose from the ground, and although his eyes were opened, he saw nothing. So they led him by the hand and brought him into Damascus. 9 And for three days he was without sight, and neither ate nor drank.   10 Now there was a disciple at Damascus named Ananias. The Lord said to him in a vision, "Ananias." And he said, "Here I am, Lord." 11 And the Lord said to him, "Rise and go to the street called Straight, and at the house of Judas look for a man of Tarsus named Saul, for behold, he is praying, 12 and he has seen in a vision a man named Ananias come in and lay his hands on him so that he might regain his sight." 13 But Ananias answered, "Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he has done to your saints at Jerusalem. 14 And here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on your name." 15 But the Lord said to him, "Go, for he is a chosen instrument of mine to carry my name before the Gentiles and kings and the children of Israel. 16 For I will show him how much he must suffer for the sake of my name." 17 So Ananias departed and entered the house. And laying his hands on him he said, "Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus who appeared to you on the road by which you came has sent me so that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit." 18 And immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and he regained his sight. Then he rose and was baptized; 19 and taking food, he was strengthened.   For some days he was with the disciples at Damascus. 20 And immediately he proclaimed Jesus in the synagogues, saying, "He is the Son of God." 21 And all who heard him were amazed and said, "Is not this the man who made havoc in Jerusalem of those who called upon this name? And has he not come here for this purpose, to bring them bound before the chief priests?" 22 But Saul increased all the more in strength, and confounded the Jews who lived in Damascus by proving that Jesus was the Christ.   Intro/Outro Song: "Only One" Nate Zuellig ULC Artist In Residence    "Christ Be Magnified" Cody Carnes CCLI Song # 7139866   CCLI License # 11254293

2 Thessalonians 2:13 - 3:5 | August 2, 2026 | Pastor Jim StitzingerIn this message on 2 Thessalonians 2:13–3:5, we explore what it means to bear the scars of a faithful life. Following Christ in a compromising world inevitably brings challenges, opposition, and pain. The Apostle Paul encourages believers to anchor themselves in their secure position as God's chosen and loved people. By holding fast to the truth of Scripture, we gain the traction needed to remain unmoved by worldly pressure.How do we stand firm when the world tries to manipulate us with fear and false promises? Watch to discover how to strengthen your daily practice and revitalize your prayer life through the enduring faithfulness of God.Connect with Crossroads Community Church:Website: https://lifeatcrossroads.orgInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/crossroadscommunitychurchFacebook: https://facebook.com/lifeatcrossroadsGive Online:https://lifeatcrossroads.org/giveonlineLicensing Information:CCLI License #2915685CCS WORSHIPcast License #9466Crossroads Community Church holds a CCS WORSHIPcast License, which grants permission to publicly play, perform, and stream musical compositions controlled by ASCAP, BMI, and SESAC in accordance with CCS License Terms and Conditions.
