Funeral Service: Step-Up

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jan 5, 2022

“Had I given up in that season of the loss of my first wife, had I given up and thrown [away] [God’s] strength and just started to living into addictions and living into my feelings and going out and living how I wanted to, I would not be living in the promises that I’m living today.”

The spiritual step-up is increasing one’s faith and prayer life and service to God when a tragedy or trial hits you, like the death of a loved one. Admittedly, when life gets too heavy, it's hard to step up, so Jesus invites us to lighten our load so we can take a step in faith. And, Anna, ...read more

A Burrito And The Gospel – Philippians 2:19-30

Contributed by Scott Turansky on Feb 2, 2022

God is saying I'm looking for people who are compassionate because I have a message called the gospel that I want to advance. I want to spread it around and give it to people. That's the message. Now the question is, are we in that place where we can take that message and run with it?

I love Mexican food. But when I look at the menu of Mexican food, I'm always surprised there's like fifty things on the menu. But there's only really four ingredients to Mexican food. Okay, there's a tortilla, there's meat, there's vegetables, and there's cheese. Now you ...read more

Marcados Por La Misericordia

Contributed by David Andrade Lopez on Oct 14, 2025

Misericordia quiero y no sacrificios es una de las peticiones más sinceras que el señor hace en su palabra. Sencillamente la misericordia es el brazo que se extiende para mostrar el poder del amor de Dios a la humanidad.

En 1904, en Gales, un joven minero llamado Evan Roberts comenzó a orar con angustia por la salvación de su pueblo. Se encerraba por horas llorando y clamando, diciendo: “¡Dóblanos, Señor, dóblanos!” Al poco tiempo, el avivamiento explotó. Los bares cerraron, los ...read more

Not Without The Lord You Don’t.

Contributed by Howard Strickland on Sep 10, 2024

The apostle Paul had the ability to look back on his life journey. (We all reminisce, don't we)? I’m sure He remembered, his training, his year of study, the discipline, his attitude toward law breakers, but now Paul is aware of his lack, and his need for spirit leadership.

In my mother-in-law’s house, there is a really important wall. It’s a wall that has marked our children’s physical growth over the years. When you walk into the guest bedroom and look down at the base of the wall, you see little pencil marks next to dates from years ago. Then as you look eye-level, ...read more

A Christmas Love Worth Waiting For Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Nov 8, 2021

You’ll never understand God if you ONLY approach Him as your King, your Shepherd, or even your Father. You must also see Him as your Husband before you can understand how intimate your relationship with God truly is.

Merry Christmas to you all. Find Hosea 3, if you will – page 955 in your pew Bibles. I’m looking forward to tonight’s Christmas celebration with the Cross Church.

God Who Gives Us Victory

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 24, 2025

The bible is full of examples of those who despite seeming failures and hardships, sought God and came out victorious. No matter what our situations or the challenges we face, we should thank God that through Christ we will come forth triumphant.

The word that God gives His children is taken from 2 Corinthians 2:14, “But thanks be to God, who always leads us in victory through Christ. God uses us to spread his knowledge everywhere like a sweet-smelling perfume.” (ERV) I would like to highlight a few words from the above mentioned verse. ...read more

Sermon # 40 - Cast Down By Men But Raised Up By God Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 19, 2023

The plan that God has for our lives will certainly be fulfilled if we honor God and remain faithful to Him and the relationships that He has entrusted to us. When God chooses to lift one up, no man can do anything to stop it.

For the past few weeks we are considering the importance of relationships, especially those pertaining to marriage and family. I would like to share a couple of testimonies from last week. I went to visit a family, and I casually asked a little girl aged around 8 or 9, ‘What did you learn last ...read more

Treasure God's Word

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 29, 2025

God’s word has power to change and transform our lives and all of our situations. The question is, “Do we treasure God’s Word?” May we ask God to open our eyes so we can see the wondrous truths hidden in it and will choose to walk in total obedience to God and His Word.

Today’s meditation is based on Joshua 1:6-7, “Be strong and courageous, for you shall cause this people to inherit the land that I swore to their fathers to give them. Only be strong and very courageous, being careful to do according to all the law that Moses my servant commanded you. Do not turn ...read more

Facing Opposition And Overcoming

Contributed by Colin Mcgeer on May 16, 2023

Joseph faced opposition but, as a result, saved his family. David faced opposition from his brother but went ahead and killed Goliath. Nehemiah faced opposition, never lost confidence, and completed the building in record time. We no less will succeed, our confidence in our Lord.

In Genesis 37 we read about Joseph the second youngest of twelve brothers born to Jacob, He was only seventeen years old. His father loved him more than his other sons. One day he made a coat of many colours for Joseph. His brothers hated him and did not speak very kindly to him. Joseph then has ...read more

Sermon # 51 - Obedience God Desires Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 17, 2025

Joseph and Mary are great examples of ones who implicitly obeyed God, and thereby were instrumental in being channels to bring forth and raise Jesus, the Son of God. Are we willing to obey God, despite not having logical reasons to do so and even when it is hard to do so?

For our meditation today we will consider 1 Samuel 15:22, “And Samuel said, “Has the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to listen than the fat of rams.” (ESV) The prophet Samuel spoke these ...read more
