Vision is Shared on Labor Day Sunday, Do Not Miss It!
This coming Sunday I will share something very important with you. It will affect each person, family, and our church collectively. Please be on time this week, ready and eager to hear the vision shared from the Word of God.
A Vision Shared from God’s Word
This coming Sunday, we will exit the book of Acts to introduce a new ministry that will affect each of our lives. I believe it has the capacity to impact our church in an unprecedented way. I see God’s timing in this as perfect. Therefore, please come prepared to hear us launch this vision.
We will spend all of September enlisting people into this new ministry, which we will launch on October 1. This is something every middle school student through senior adult can engage in personally.
In fact, we want you to join us in this new ministry. Nothing is needed in our church any greater than this vision. Nothing. All else is vain unless the Spirit of the Holy One comes down!
Prayerfully, after a victory on Saturday afternoon at Razorback Stadium, we will do all we can to be here. NOW is the time for us to engage weekly in worship and small groups.
A Small Group is Critical in Your Life
Each of us needs to be involved in a small group. When we face life’s greatest trials, we need to walk through it with others. A small group can become your personal connection to Cross Church and another way to pour the Word of God into your life.
Pressure Points is the title of our first lesson in our new Bible Studies for Life study for our small groups. Please start with us in a small group and engage weekly. Come eagerly and enthusiastically, more than ready to grow together.
Summer Program of Giving Concludes This Sunday
Thanks to each of you who have given faithfully this summer. Hundreds of our families have honored God with the first-tenth and above during this summer season. We are highly grateful for you.
If you have been away this summer, a few Sundays or many, this is a catch up Sunday for you in your giving. Please plan to do so. As well, let me remind you there are ways to give faithfully to this ministry besides placing your offering in the plates in worship. You can discover these five ways here.
Yours for the Great Commission! I will see you Sunday!

Two Reasons Not to Miss This Sunday
This coming Sunday, we will launch toward the fall. Many of you have been all over the country during the last several weeks, but this Sunday is the time we reconnect to God and His people called Cross Church. Anticipation is growing for all we believe God is going to do this coming Lord’s Day.
Exciting Message This Sunday
God has roared into my heart this week concerning the message we will preach. At each of our campuses, we will teach Acts 17:10-15. This is a powerful passage with enormous application for each of us. Before the Sunday worship service:
- Read Acts 17:10-15
- Spend time meditating on what it says
- Ask God to speak to you through the message
Let’s all be ready to worship, learn, and receive the Word of God for our lives from Acts 17:10-15 with great enthusiasm.
Exalting Jesus Through Our Worship
At our Springdale and Pinnacle Hills Campuses, the choir will be back in the loft, joining the worship team in leading exciting worship. Let’s fill the house of God with the worship of our Lord. If you’re interested in being a part of the choir, attend choir rehearsal on Wednesday night from 6:30 – 8:00 p.m. at either the Springdale or Pinnacle Hills campus.
Engage in a Small Group
This coming Sunday is the day each of us needs to connect with a Small Group. This is vital to us. Find a group you will enjoy being a part of. This Sunday, we introduce our new three-year curriculum series called Bible Studies for Life. Our first six-week study will teach us how to handle the pressures of life. Now is the time!
Expect God to Do Something Special on September 1
After winning our first Razorback football game of the year on Saturday, August 31, we will have a special God-anointed word for September 1. On this Sunday, I will introduce a new ministry that literally hundreds and hundreds of people can join, and quite honestly, thousands could join us. This is something each of us can do. We will take a break from the book of Acts on September 1. The message from the Bible will teach us, challenge us, and launch us towards the next great move of God in Cross Church.
Bring Someone With You the Next Two Weeks!
