Culture Shift

Every church has a culture. Our "culture" refers to who we are or what marks us. There are so many things I love about the culture of Crossroads. Want a few examples? I love the culture of change here. Change is a given. We embrace it. We're not afraid to try new things (and bury them quickly if they don't work). I also love the culture of generosity at Crossroads. We may not be the richest church, but the sacrificial giving at Crossroads is off-the-charts. I could go on...

One of the things we want to add to our culture is to be people of The Word. People of the Book. People who value the Bible enough to read, reflect, and apply it to our lives on a daily basis. The book we'll be studying soon in Meal Groups (The Divine Mentor) is going to challenge us in this area. I'm so excited. As we get into God's Word and God's Word gets into us, we will be changed. Not just our culture, but our lives and our church.

PLEASE, get in a Meal Group. Meal Groups are where we're going to learn how to get into The Bible on our own. Meal Groups are where we're going to hold each other accountable to prioritize time in God's Word each day. Our next Meal Group launch happens on January 26-27. It truly is the start of something big here at Crossroads.
