This Week at Cross Church
Cross Church Family, I’m excited to be back with you this Sunday. Jeana and I enjoyed our time away with our kids and grandkids as well as visiting with both my family and Jeana’s mom in Texas. We are looking forward to being back with our Cross Church Family. If you’re in town, I encourage you to join us as we continue our We Believe series.
When You’re Away
We all take time away during the summer. But when you’re away from home, please insure your commitment to SAY YES! Continue to honor the Lord with what he’s given you. You can do so through automated giving or online giving here.
VBX was Great!
Last week we completed another wonderful year of Vacation Bible Xtreme. God was glorified by the hard work of our Children’s Ministry team and the dedication of our wonderful volunteers as they served 1,500 kids across our 5 campuses! Praise God over 100 kids made the decision to follow Christ! The path of many of these children will be forever changed. Thank you Cross Church for making this happen for God’s glory.
Cross Church at the AMP
Join us August 9 at 6 p.m. (Gates open at 5 p.m.) for an incredible night of worship and preaching at the Arkansas Music Pavilion (AMP). We will have worship from our Cross Church Global Choir and Band and I will be preaching. Invite a friend and join us for this amazing night!
NWA Women’s Conference
Ladies, be sure to register for the 2015 NWA Women’s Conference on August 23 at 5 p.m. at our Pinnacle Hills campus. We are excited to feature acclaimed author and speaker, Margaret Feinberg, as well as outstanding worship by our Cross Church singers and band. Margaret is a popular Bible teacher and speaker at churches and conferences such as Catalyst, Thrive, and Women of Joy. She was recently named one of the 50 women most shaping the church and culture by Christianity Today and one of the “30 Voices” who will help lead the church in the next decade. You can register here.
I will see you Sunday,

This Week at Cross Church
It is the middle of summer, and things are in full swing at Cross Church!
VBX
This week was VBX on all our campuses. Children from across Northwest Arkansas have gathered on our campuses and at homes to hear the good news about Jesus. They’ve learned about Believe, Ask, and Serve, and engaged in fun science projects. Pinnacle Hills has had over 600 in attendance, Neosho and College Avenue have increased their attendance from last year, Fayetteville campus has seen great attendance while hosting in six different neighborhoods across town, and Springdale campus has seen a record attendance of 709 as well as collecting almost $1,800 to provide shoes for local children through the Compassion Center! Lives have been changed to the glory of God! And it’s not over yet! Tonight we end with Family Night at each campus. Pray with me that families will be blessed through this special evening as they witness baptism and hear the gospel.
SAY YES!
VBX, mission trips, camps, and many other summer events are possible when you SAY YES to our Summer Program of Giving. Thank you for being faithful so far this summer, and remember to continue honoring the Lord with all He has given to you even when you are away. You can do so through automated giving or online giving here.
We Believe
This Sunday, we will continue our We Believe series with Missions and Evangelism. If you have missed a week, be sure you go here to catch up. We will continue our We Believe series through August.
A Country in Chaos
On Monday, I wrote about the state of our nation and listed what we as Southern Baptists can do during this time. I hope you will take a few moments to read it.
Now is the Time to Lead,
