We kicked off the Rewind series today at Cross Point Nashville with Blake Bergstrom talking about the life of Samson.

We had a great Sunday at both campuses this week. My highlights are a bit delayed because I wanted to give you some media rather than my written highlights. At Cross Point Nashville we wrapped up the Q series with an edge-of-your-seat live q&a session with Pete. Dickson Campus Pastor, Chad Roberts, moderated questions that […]
I’ve become a little obsessed. Every night this week I’ve been watching highlights and matches from the opening week of Wimbledon. And you can bet I’ll be glued to it this week too.

We started the new series “Q” at Cross Point Nashville today. Our question for today was: “What is God’s Will for My Life” Ok, we didn’t start easy! I was actually a little surprised that Pete tackled this one right off the bat but he did a great job. In fact he did an amazing […]
