This Week at Cross Church | 4 Challenges

4 Challenges Before Cross Church in December

Cross Church Family, I’d like to share four challenges that face our church in December.

Challenge #1: ENGAGE PEOPLE WITH OUR CHURCH IN DECEMBER

Each week, we have a responsibility to engage people in our community with our church. However, the month of December brings us special moments and additional opportunities. Let’s seize the moment:

• EXPERIENCE CHRISTMAS, our church-wide Christmas worship service on Sunday, December 10, and Monday, December 11. You can find details here.
• Participate in the Lord’s Supper with your family in all services on Sunday morning, December 17, as we conclude our Home for the Holidays series.
• Christmas Eve Services on Sunday morning, December 24. We will have seven services. Find times and locations here.

Challenge #2: MAKE SURE YOU HAVE HONORED GOD WITH ALL HE HAS GIVEN TO YOU IN 2017

Do not minimize making sure you are honoring God with at least one tenth of all He has provided for you during 2017. This includes income from all resources, including salary, bonuses, stock, other gifts of kind, or ways He has provided for you. Begin to evaluate the ways God has blessed you and make sure you have honored Him with all He has given you in 2017.

Challenge #3: BECOME FAMILIAR WITH ALL THE OPPORTUNITIES GIVEN TO US ON CHRISTMAS EVE

Since Christmas Eve is on Sunday, we have determined to place all of our energies in our Sunday morning services that we will offer on December 24. We are offering seven services on our four campuses:

• Springdale – 9:15 a.m. (Español – 10:55 a.m.)
• Pinnacle Hills – 10:55 a.m.
• Fayetteville – 9:00 & 10:30 a.m.
• Neosho – 9:00 & 10:30 a.m.

I talked about these services this past Sunday via Cross Church Today, and you can watch it here.

Challenge #4: PRAY WITH ME THIS MONTH FOR AMERICA USING THESE THREE PRAYER PRIORITIES

On Monday, I wrote about three prayer priorities for America for the month of December. You can find them here. Will you pray with us? And if you’d like to engage in prayer for Cross Church as well, join our Cross Church Circle and pray along with thousands of our Cross Church Family.

See You Sunday,
