The Great Reset Part 4: Give Thanks and Ask It! Dionne Salmonds Original Air Date: 2024.11.24 At the time this is being written it is one month from the 2024 election. Trying to peer into the future, one can only speculate what life might be like in a month, but one thing is for sure... things will change, one way or the other. For Christians, and those simply looking for answers, we must turn to God for direction and hope. The truth is, no matter who is president, no matter what happens around the world, whether we worry about our family, our health, or our finances, the one thing we don't have to worry about is that God is still in control! The challenge... trusting in that reality. Living each day in the reality that God's plan hasn't changed, our role as a Christian hasn't changed, the mission of telling others about the love of Christ hasn't changed, the fact there is still so much to be thankful for – has not changed. Our series, The Great Reset, begins November 3rd where we will spend time focusing on trusting God in all circumstances and how that is the engine that drives everything else in life. This series will end with an Ask It! message where we will answer questions submitted by you and others in the church during both services. Questions can be sent by email to ccc@ccc-rc.org, text to (760)301-4840 or you can pick up an Ask It! card at the Connections Counter. We welcome questions from anyone you know, even if they do not attend Crossroads. Service Times are Saturday Evening at 5:30pm and Sunday Morning at 10:30 am.

The Great Reset Part 3: My Part and Ask It Bill Corley Original Air Date: 2024.11.17 At the time this is being written it is one month from the 2024 election. Trying to peer into the future, one can only speculate what life might be like in a month, but one thing is for sure... things will change, one way or the other. For Christians, and those simply looking for answers, we must turn to God for direction and hope. The truth is, no matter who is president, no matter what happens around the world, whether we worry about our family, our health, or our finances, the one thing we don't have to worry about is that God is still in control! The challenge... trusting in that reality. Living each day in the reality that God's plan hasn't changed, our role as a Christian hasn't changed, the mission of telling others about the love of Christ hasn't changed, the fact there is still so much to be thankful for – has not changed. Our series, The Great Reset, begins November 3rd where we will spend time focusing on trusting God in all circumstances and how that is the engine that drives everything else in life. This series will end with an Ask It! message where we will answer questions submitted by you and others in the church during both services. Questions can be sent by email to ccc@ccc-rc.org, text to (760)301-4840 or you can pick up an Ask It! card at the Connections Counter. We welcome questions from anyone you know, even if they do not attend Crossroads. Service Times are Saturday Evening at 5:30pm and Sunday Morning at 10:30 am.

Behind The Scenes Part 6: The Good, The Bad, and The Not So Ugly Nick Quigley Original Air Date: 2024.10.26 When a movie is made, what we see on the “big screen” is the product of many working parts. There are producers, directors, writers, set designers, actors, camera people, sound people, the list goes on. In fact, have you noticed that the list of credits after a movie has hundreds of people involved? The point is they are all working together to hopefully produce a successful work. What is interesting is the amount of people and work that goes on behind the scenes - the people and things we never see but are vitally important to bringing about the finished work. Our own life, and world, is much like this... what we may not realize is that God is and always has been at work, “behind the scenes” so-to-speak, working through people of all types to fulfill His perfect plan and purpose for us, others and the world. This series, “Behind The Scenes” will focus on Old Testament people in history, the contrast of both good and bad, and how God worked through them. You are invited to join us on September 21 &22, 2024, and hope you invite your family and friends as well. Service Times are Saturday Evening at 5:30pm and Sunday Morning at 10:30 am.

Genuine Part 6: Be Strong Nick Quigley Original Air Date: 2024.09.15 We live in a time and world where almost everything we see, read, and hear is fake... but this is not a new problem. For decades, and even now, items like clothing, jewelry, shoes and other things are copied and passed off as the genuine article. How can you tell if it's real or fake? Even in the Christian faith it can be difficult to tell between a genuine Christian and one that is fake. How do you know? The question for all of us is, do we want to be a genuine Christ follower or will we be satisfied just looking like one? Most people genuinely want to follow Christ and live like He did. We want to enjoy the fruit of faithful obedience, we want to know how to handle persecution, trials and temptation, we want to know how to study the Bible, but it takes work, perseverance and most of all – love. But it is here where the decision to be genuine is made. Are we willing to do the work or will we be satisfied with just the label? Over the next six weeks in our series, “Genuine”, we will go through the understanding and steps of becoming a true Christ follower. We will learn what it means to be devoted to Him, how to learn and study the Bible as well as apply it to life. We will learn why Christians are still faced with temptation and build a plan to endure and overcome them. You are invited to join us on August 10 & 11, 2024, and hope you invite your family and friends as well. Service Times are Saturday Evening at 5:30pm and Sunday Morning at 10:30 am.

Genuine Part 1: Devotion Bill Corley Original Air Date: 2024.08.11 We live in a time and world where almost everything we see, read, and hear is fake... but this is not a new problem. For decades, and even now, items like clothing, jewelry, shoes and other things are copied and passed off as the genuine article. How can you tell if it's real or fake? Even in the Christian faith it can be difficult to tell between a genuine Christian and one that is fake. How do you know? The question for all of us is, do we want to be a genuine Christ follower or will we be satisfied just looking like one? Most people genuinely want to follow Christ and live like He did. We want to enjoy the fruit of faithful obedience, we want to know how to handle persecution, trials and temptation, we want to know how to study the Bible, but it takes work, perseverance and most of all – love. But it is here where the decision to be genuine is made. Are we willing to do the work or will we be satisfied with just the label? Over the next six weeks in our series, “Genuine”, we will go through the understanding and steps of becoming a true Christ follower. We will learn what it means to be devoted to Him, how to learn and study the Bible as well as apply it to life. We will learn why Christians are still faced with temptation and build a plan to endure and overcome them. You are invited to join us on August 10 & 11, 2024, and hope you invite your family and friends as well. Service Times are Saturday Evening at 5:30pm and Sunday Morning at 10:30 am. We also offer two Adult Sunday School options at 9:00am.

Life Mapping Part 5: Adulting Nick Quigley Original Air Date: 2024.08.04 Before the advent of GPS and phone navigation, people relied on paper maps for directions to a new destination. There's a good chance that most people under the age of 45 have never used a map, yet maps are still important. If the electricity or internet goes down, we will be in a pickle! In life, if we want to accomplish a goal, we must plot a course and diligently take steps toward that goal. In Christianity it is the same... our goal, hopefully, is to grow spiritually and become more like Jesus in everyday life. In our series, Life Mapping, we will discover that the journey of our faith is much like plotting a course for a trip. We have our heading, stops along the way, deal with the detours, and hit our final destination with the ability to say “we finished the race, we have kept the faith!” Service Times are Saturday Evening at 5:30pm and Sunday Morning at 10:30 am.

Foundations Part 6: Purpose Bill Corley Original Air Date: 2024.06.23 Foundations... every house should have one. It is the concrete base upon which the entire house sits. Its function is to keep the house upright and stable. What is important about the foundation of the house is that it must be done correctly and with the right material or it will crack, settle, shift, or even come apart causing damage, or in severe cases, collapse. What about other foundations? The foundation of our relationships, our belief systems, and our worldviews are equally, if not more, important. Jesus teaches in Mark 3:24-25 “If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. 25 And if a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand.” This division comes from unstable or poorly laid foundations that have come from multiple sources... the educational system, government, news and social media, well-meaning friends or family, and our own thoughts and ideas. The fact is just as the stability of a concrete foundation depends on the quality and consistency of the material in it, the foundations in which we build our lives upon must also be of good quality and consistency – and there is only one place we are guaranteed to get this... God and His Word. This summer, we will be spending some time laying biblical foundations in the areas of Creation, Morals, Authority, Relationships, Truth, and Purpose. These foundations will keep us stable when we and our families are challenged by the philosophies of the world. Our series will begin the weekend of Saturday May 18th and Sunday May 19th - and we would love to have you invite your family and friends! Service Times are Saturday Evening at 5:30pm and Sunday Morning at 10:30 am. We also offer two Adult Sunday School options at 9:00am.

The Golden Rule Part 6: Judging Others Bill Corley Original Air Date: 2024.05.12 As children, we grew up with what we called the “Golden Rule”. We knew what it meant – do unto others what you would have them do unto you – a great axiom for living! It is simple and easy to follow. In today's world this beautiful and simple truth is in short supply and doesn't always produce the desired result. We can follow the golden rule, but people rarely respond in kind. Does this mean we don't need to follow the golden rule any longer? In this series, “The Golden Rule”, we are focusing on the remainder of Jesus' teachings from the Sermon on the Mount. In our last series, “The Beatitudes” Jesus taught that to follow Him requires us to selflessly and sacrificially live and treat others with compassion and humility regardless of how they treat us. Over the next six weeks, we will continue to study Jesus' teaching on this as He speaks about the real issue with anger, lust, anxiety, money, prayer, and judging others and how we can live and respond in a Christlike way. You are invited to join us on Saturday, April 6th or Sunday, April 7th, 2024 and encourage you to invite your family and friends as we dive in to real Christian living! Service Times are Saturday Evening at 5:30pm and Sunday Morning at 10:30 am. We also offer two Adult Sunday School options at 9:00am. Promiseland Kids Church is available at 5:30pm on Saturday evening for children up to 5th grade and Sunday at 10:30am for Toddler – 5th grade and Youth Sunday School for Jr. High and older.
