Why I Serve – Kevin and Kristi Funk

Around Crosspoint, our volunteers truly are at the heart of what we do. Without our volunteers, God-glorifying, life-changing ministry just wouldn’t happen. So why do our volunteers serve? Why do they join Jesus in His invitation to be a part of a mission that is greater than themselves? Here is one testimony from Kevin and […]

Fathers, do not embitter your children

Colossians 3:21: Fathers, do not embitter your children, or they will become discouraged. Now the Greek word here for Father is also used elsewhere to refer to both parents. So moms, you can’t escape this command or challenge from God’s Word. I believe the primary challenge is given to the fathers, but ultimately this can […]

Children, obey your parents

Colossians 3:20: Children, obey your parents in everything, for this pleases the Lord. This is a sweeping, all encompassing statement isn’t it? Obey your parents in everything. In the Greek the word everything, means everything. You can’t escape this one students. So ‘everything’ includes your parents’ boundaries and rules on things such as technology, friendships, […]

Husbands, love your wives

Colossians 3:19: Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh with them. The word for love here in verse 19 refers to the kind of sacrificial, self-giving, I-will-lay-down-my-life kind of love. A love that was best modeled and displayed by Jesus Himself. Just a few verses earlier in Colossians 3, we see Paul talking […]

12 Stone Memorials

Joshua 4 records the Israelite nation as they finish crossing the Jordan River on dry ground. Verse 1 begins with this… Joshua 4:1-8: When all the nation had finished passing over the Jordan, the Lord said to Joshua, 2 “Take twelve men from the people, from each tribe a man, 3 and command them, saying, ‘Take twelve stones from here out of […]

“Come, follow me” – Jesus

“Come, follow me,” Jesus said (Mark 1:17) You and I have followed people our entire lives. When I was a kid, I followed my mom and dad around. I followed friends and began to take after what they did. I remember playing basketball in the driveway as a kid, boombox plugged in, mix tape playing […]

God is light

1 John 1:5: This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. What is your attitude toward God’s character? Because what you and I think about God is one of the most important question in our lives. It has implications […]

Above all else, guard your heart

Proverbs 4:20-27: 20 My son, pay attention to what I say; turn your ear to my words. 21 Do not let them out of your sight, keep them within your heart; 22 for they are life to those who find them and health to one’s whole body. 23 Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.
