BIG Sunday Highlights!!

FHL_date_web

Yesterday was a very big day for all of our campuses.  Pete shared a  big vision and plans for the future of Cross Point.  I’m so excited about what God is up to through our church!

There is no way that I could adequately recap the vision that Pete shared in such a powerful way yesterday, so please go to our website and listen or watch online the message in it’s entirety.  I promise you this is worth your 25 minutes!

In the meantime, this quick 8 minute video is a good overview.

Here are a few of the key points that I took away from the message yesterday:

Intimacy Through Trust – message by Pete Wilson

Faith is trust in a person.  When you trust somebody you always take a risk.

When I trust you and place something in your hands, I become vulnerable to you.  You have to extend your faithfulness back to me.  The greater the risk, the greater the opportunity for intimacy.

There can be no growth or intimacy in a relationship without trust.

Hebrews 11:6 – “Without faith it is impossible to please God”

Faith is foundational to every relationship.

Community is the way that God confronts and redeems our desire to give up.

Faith is always tied to God’s ultimate purpose – the redemption of mankind.

Over and over again God asks his servants to do ridiculous things to see His miraculous power released.

Obedience is key.  Miracles always happen on the other side of obedience.

Matthew 6:21″For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”

Over the next 4 weeks we are going to be on a journey as a church to step out into a big season of faith.

I challenge you to…

listen to the message

read the Faith, Hope & Love stories

pray for a miracle

and find your place in this story.

It’s going to be an amazing journey!

    It was a killer sermon on Sunday. “Community is the way that God confronts and redeems our desire to give up” resonated very loudly. It’s amazing how easy you can let discouragement beat you when you’re fighting a battle alone.
