Worshiping Up Close and Personal
I have designated this month ‘God Pride Month’ in our church. I will post a series on worshiping God up close and personal. We are going to boast and brag about our God, our heavenly Father, our Savior King, our Redeemer, our Messiah, our mediator of a new covenant. We are going to proudly speak His Name in praise and worship as we focus on Him and worship Him! In Exodus 19 we find Moses about to go to Mount…
Come to Crossfire And Get Refueled!
This week I’ve been talking about doing good. As Christians, we know we are supposed to do good things that reflect God’s nature. Doing good can burn emotional and even physical calories. It takes energy to do the good things we are called to do. In the process we may get weary and tired. If you’re looking for a church where you can get refueled and energized, try our church in Centennial. We have a prophetic edge, vibrant worship, challenging…
Crossfire Understands Power and Love Are Parallel
This week I’m talking about Jesus-centered leadership and His authority. In Matt. 28:18 Jesus said “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.” Jesus passed that authority on to us, His church. Jesus-centered leaders lead from a position of grace, compassion, love and power. We understand that the power of God and the love of God are not mutually exclusive–they are parallel aspects of Jesus-centered leadership. If you’re looking for a church where there is Jesus-centered…
Visit Crossfire For Some Encouragement This Sunday
The Bible says in Heb. 3:13 we are to “encourage one another daily.” Yes it says daily! We need daily encouragement, daily good news, daily energy to keep on in the faith and face the challenges of the day. Encouragement is a by-product of the local church. If you’re looking for encouragement but can’t seem to find it, try our church, Crossfire, in Centennial, Colorado. We believe in building people and encouragement is a building block of our church. We…
Crossfire Embraces Biblical Prophecy
1 Cor. 14:3 says that ‘he who prophesies speaks to men for their strengthening, encouragement and comfort.’ This gift was common in the early church at the time of Paul the Apostle. It is also common today in some churches, but only in those who are open to the gifts of the Holy Spirit. If you are looking for a church where you can be strengthened, encouraged, and comforted by God’s gift of prophecy, try our church in Centennial, Colorado.…
Prophecy Reveals God’s Heart
This week I’m speaking on the subject of new covenant prophecy. Prophecy is a gift given by the Holy Spirit. 1st Cor. 14:3 says that “he who prophesies speaks to men for their strengthening, encouragement and comfort.” We need prophecy in our churches, our home groups, and our marketplace ministries. It is one of God’s gifts to build us up. Prophecy is speaking forth the mind and counsel of God by declaring that which cannot be known by natural means.…
Prophecy Brings Abundant Life
This week I’ll be speaking on the subject of new covenant prophecy. Prophecy is a spiritual gift given by the Holy Spirit. 1st Cor. 14:3 says that “he who prophesies speaks to men for their strengthening, encouragement and comfort.” Prophecy under the new covenant of grace is designed to build you up, not tear you down. It is God’s gift to encourage and comfort us when circumstances do not. I have received prophecy spoken to me and I have given…
We’re Not Dating Jesus
This week I’ve been talking about the depth of our faith in Jesus. Many people attend evangelical churches but have a level of faith that is only skin deep. They’re dating the church and they’re dating Jesus. They’re just checking it out to determine if Jesus is worth a long term relationship. If you’re looking for a church that’s more than skin deep, a church where the people are past the dating game, Crossfire is the church for you. We’re…
A Mile Wide And An Inch Deep
Jesus said in John 14:6, “I am the way the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” Jesus is the gate keeper of eternal life, yet a recent survey by the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life found 57% of people attending evangelical churches believe that many religions can lead to eternal life. Therefore, over half of the people who attend these churches do not believe that Jesus is the only way!!! That…
Where The Spirit of the Lord Is, There Is Freedom.
Paul told the believers in Corinth that ‘where the Spirit of the Lord is there is freedom’ (2 Cor. 3:17). The local church was designed to be a place where the Holy Spirit was free to do his work. The local church was designed to express the freedom we have in Christ. If you’re looking for a church where there is freedom in the Holy Spirit; freedom to worship openly and to express your excitement about Jesus, try Crossfire in…
Come Experience The Father’s Heart at Crossfire
This week I’ve been talking about the Father heart of God. Many men have a distorted view of God the father. They view God the Father as a disciplinarian rather than as a devoted Dad. Jesus said, “if you have seen Me you have seen the Father.” The Bible says that Jesus is the exact representation of the Father. How did so many men get their view of the Father distorted? It’s because they have an Old Testament view rather…
