God is bigger than tradition, than a church and a steeple and pomp and circumstance. God is relevant to today and disconnecting God from today, can in someway diminish God in the eyes of people (nothing can actually diminish God). What I have enjoyed about Crosspoint is that it changes the lesson plans without changing the lessons. And I fundamentally believe that it should be a pleasure to go to church, not a chore. Love can be work but it shouldn’t feel like a hassle.
You all are doing a wonderful job. I’ve told my friends and family, what I find so appealing is that the people at Crosspoint aren’t there because it’s Sunday, but rather they are there because that’s when the congregation gets together to celebrate God en masse so they want to be there and that feeling of love is palapable.

great post… we use what the world would call “entertainment” to reach a world that would not listen to hymns in evereyday life, only we call it “WORSHIP”, and in it we see people with changed hearts & lives. God uses all kinds of churches, and even the “old school” churches don’t preach like the Puritans, so it’s not “us and them”, but only us. Can you imagine a Puritan whalin’ away on a Fender Strat? How about Lincoln Brewster on an air organ that has 200 pipes?… Hey, there might be a song in the Puritan on the strat thing….

WOW, exactly. ~ from the first day I visited Crosspoint until now I have left church with every feeling imaginable. On some sundays I leave laughing, on some sundays I leave literally broken with a lump in my throat, on some sundays I leave wrapped in a cloak of worship, and on some sundays I leave in awe. I know in my heart of hearts God in his heaven smiles when Crosspoint begins. With out a doubt, God led me to Crosspoint. I come to both services so that I have more time to absorb that amazing God worshipping thing that happens each week and leave with a feeling of melancholy and wonder because I know it will be seven full days before I come back. Crosspoint has been the catalysts for a deeper, stronger and more singlemindedness desire for me to spread the good news! I know that back 2000 plus years ago there was EXCITEMENT when people talked about and worshipped Jesus! I feel like Crosspoint is a great model for what Gods church should be…..close and, thank MY LORD, my church is “fun”.
