We continued our series Sabotage this week by looking at making wise choices when it comes to the people that our in our inner circle of friends.

I have searched my entire life for my identity. At different stages I thought I had found it, and was semi-ok with it, only to see it suddenly shift and the unending search was on again. In high-school, I found it in sports. I wasn’t the greatest athlete, but I was good enough to receive
Our groups will continue their Sabotage study this week by discussing how having an “I am always right” attitude can destroy your relationships.

Instead of having people just peruse a bunch of sign-up tables with leaders behind them, we set-up an event

The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall
This Sunday, we will give everyone that attends Cross Point the opportunity to join a community group. We try to make it an easy first step by actually hosting their first group meeting together at the church during a Connection Event. A lot of people are wary of making the commitment to be in a
