Ready… Set… Smack!
Every summer SonRise Church has an event to promote fellowship and raise money to send the youth to camp. One of the ways they raise money is by placing several jars outside the sanctuary for a few weeks leading up to the event. Each jar has the name and picture of one of the leaders… Continue reading

“Together With”
Yesterday at CrossWay we celebrated Communion. We celebrated God’s presence with us, and the fact that we can meet together with Him because of the sacrifice that Jesus Christ made on our behalf. We had an actual-size replica of the ark of the covenant up on the platform as we looked up some Scriptures in… Continue reading

CrossWay On Purpose – Session 1
On Wednesday, June 20, we held our first session of CrossWay On Purpose. There were 10 present, and we had a really good study and discussion. We began with a treasure hunt. The group was given an envelope with a clue, which led to the location of the next clue. Each clue was a Bible… Continue reading

CrossWay On Purpose
For the next few weeks we’re holding a church-wide Bible study on Wednesday nights. It’s called CrossWay On Purpose, and its goal is to discover God’s design for CrossWay Church. Over the next few weeks we’re studying quite a few Bible passages to see what God says about His plan for His church. We’re focusing… Continue reading

It’s a Beautiful Day for a Ballgame–Let’s Play Two!
CrossWay Church and The Gathering Tree are teaming up this season in church league softball. Last night we had our first game (games, actually–we play doubleheaders) against Ocean Pines Community Church. We lost both games, 19-14 and 19-13, but we had a ton of fun and played a LOT better than we did in our… Continue reading

SonRise Brings in a New Day
This morning I’m meeting with Pastor Daryl at SonRise Church‘s new digs. These past few days they moved into their new office/meeting space at what used to be Calvary Chapel. (Strangely enough, Calvary Chapel is moving into the office/meeting space that SonRise formerly occupied. Works out pretty well!) I’m looking forward to checking out the… Continue reading

Happy Father’s Day!
Happy Father’s Day! Today at CrossWay we’re looking at 5 things about our dads that we’re grateful for. (Or as my mom would have me say: Today at CrossWay we’re looking at 5 things about our dads for which we’re grateful. [It’s that whole ending-with-a-preposition thing.]) ANYway… There’s no question that we’re experiencing a crisis… Continue reading

triplecord.net
God does exciting stuff! And one of those things He’s up to that has me very excited right now is something called triplecord.net. (I’m not hyperlinking it yet because the site isn’t up and running quite yet. When it is, I’ll link to it.) Triplecord.net is based on a passage in the Bible. Ecclesiastes 4:9-12… Continue reading

If you’ve already got iTunes on your computer, you can find our podcast here. If you don’t have… Continue reading

Give Careful Thought to Your Ways
Yesterday at CrossWay we finished our two-part series on the Book of Haggai. Last week we talked about how we see a greater vision of reality when we look through the lens of God’s promises to us. Yesterday we saw how our priorities determine our choices and our choices determine the quality of our lives.… Continue reading
