Text Messages (from God)

That's the title of the new message series starting in a couple of weeks at Crossroads' main services. We're going to be looking at letters that Christ sent to actual churches in Asia Minor in the first century. These letters are preserved in the Bible in Revelation 2-3. They are amazingly applicable to churches today.

As Christ writes to these churches he typically starts with "commendation" and follows that with "condemnation". In other words it's a good news/bad news format.

Do you ever wonder what Christ would say to Crossroads if he text messaged or emailed or sent us an old fashioned letter in the mailbox? My guess is he'd have good things and bad things to say to us. After all, we're an imperfect church made up of imperfect people and pastors.

Feel free to blog your comments but keep these 3 things in mind: if you don't attend Crossroads you probably don't know us well enough to comment; you're not Jesus; and, share positive stuff along with the negative stuff.
