About Us

A CROSSING is a JOURNEY.

The Bible is saturated with the image of JOURNEY.

In Genesis, we read of Abraham stepping out in faith to leave the land of his ancestors and go to a place chosen by God. In Exodus and Deuteronomy, the journey continues with the forty-year trek of the people of Israel from the harsh oppression under Pharaoh in Egypt to the promised land of Canaan. In the New Testament, we see that the earliest Christians were referred to as those who belong to the way (Acts 9:2).

Our culture also understands this image of JOURNEY when it comes to spirituality.

Because of these factors, and others, we have chosen the name Crossing for our church.

The CROSSING image reminds us :

• We are going SOMEWHERE–by God’s grace, into a deeper relationship with God and His people and, someday, heaven.
• We are in a PROCESS–any journey does more than simply lead us to a goal. The spiritual journey that we are on is, within itself, a process that God uses to grow us and develop us as we press on to our goal of becoming like Christ.
• Our journey is a journey of CHANGE.

If we are IN CHRIST, our spiritual destiny is to be conformed to the image of Christ (Rom. 8:29).

We believe this is a “crossing” worth making.
