This Week at Cross Church | Dave Ramsey This Sunday
Dave Ramsey is With Us Sunday on All Campuses
The creator and writer of Financial Peace University, Dave Ramsey, will be speaking on each of our campuses this Sunday. Regardless of your preferred worship time, you will hear him at Cross Church. This is a huge opportunity for you to invite someone to come to Cross Church with you. Due to Dave’s highly popular daily radio broadcast and books, and his guest appearances on television networks, many people who do not know Christ know Dave and appreciate him. Invite people! You can use this invitation tool Dave recorded for Cross Church.
Mark Your Calendar Now for Sunday, October 21
Mark your calendar for October 21, a significant stretch day in our entire ministry. Our focus for this day is Who is Your 1? Who is the 1 person you need to invite to hear the gospel message this day? From our missions ministry to Small Group ministry to our Worship ministry, this is the day that we want to stretch to have one of our greatest days ever in attendance and participation. It starts with each of us prioritizing the day. Resolve to be in small group and worship on Sunday, October 21. Then, pray about Who is Your 1? Invite them to join you to hear the gospel message. Plan to be here. Prioritize this special day.
Go Forward in Truth
This past Monday, I released an article entitled, Where is the Truthfulness in America? If you will take the time to read this extremely brief article, I think you will discover some things that will help you as we search for truth. You can read and share this article here.
New Fiscal Year Begins at Cross Church on October 1
This past Sunday, Cross Church approved our new budget for the upcoming fiscal year of October 1, 2018, through September 30, 2019. Our budget goal for this fiscal year is $20.8 million. Just as we have done historically for over thirty years, Sunday, October 7, is our “Prove the Tithe Day”, a day when we challenge all of our people to give at least the first tenth of all God entrusted to us. For some, this will be their first time to tithe, and they will find what many of us have – God will be faithful to take care of them. To each of us who are already practicing giving at least the first tenth, use this day to increase your giving over the next year. Jeana and I have done this continually and have learned time and again that you cannot out give God. Take the challenge. Make a mark. Obey God. Trust Him.
Don’t Miss This Sunday!

Celebrating Buster and Martha Pray’s 25th Anniversary with Cross Church
In 1988, Buster Pray was called to be our Worship Pastor at Cross Church. For many years, he led this ministry into some dynamic growth that impacted the entire church. For those of us who have been here for many years, we will never forget many of the inspirational times we each experienced. After being away from our ministry to follow God’s call, Buster returned here as the Campus Pastor at Cross Church Pinnacle Hills. Therefore, when you put these two experiences together, he has been leading on our team for twenty-five years. This coming Sunday, in both of our worship services at Pinnacle Hills, we will recognize and celebrate their twenty-five years with us. Thank you, Buster and Martha, along with your family, for the years of service and blessing you have been to us. We love the Pray Family.
