Marriage: Back to Basics
Yesterday at CrossWay Church we talked about marriage. We looked at 1 Peter 2:20-3:7. Sometimes 1 Peter 3:1-7 is preached by itself and taken way out of context.

The first podcast from our “Hollywood God” series at CrossWay is now available. It’s based on the movie The Pursuit of Happyness (see this post).

Hollywood God: The Pursuit of Happyness
“Hollywood God” kicked off at CrossWay yesterday with The Pursuit of Happyness. We watched several clips from the movie about how Chris Gardner (played by Will Smith) chased after what he thought would make him happy, letting absolutely nothing get in his way. The movie ends like so many others: happily ever after. We see Continue reading

This story talks about Continue reading
