Crosspoint Church

When we think about God’s calling, we often focus on what we’re supposed to do, but God is far more concerned with who we are becoming. In week one of God Is Calling, Pastor Paul walks through 1 Peter 1:15–16 to reveal that God’s call begins with holiness, not as a standard to achieve, but as an identity to receive in Christ. Holiness is not about trying harder or fixing yourself, but about living from the new identity God has already given you through Jesus. As we let go of what holds us back and begin to follow Him in our daily decisions, we move from striving for approval to living as sons and daughters who already belong.

On Easter Sunday, we celebrate a moment that changed everything—but many still wonder what it means for their life today. In this message, Pastor Paul walks through Matthew 28:5–6 to show how the resurrection of Jesus is not just a historical event, but a life-changing reality for us right now.
Because Jesus rose, sin is defeated, forgiveness is available, and death is no longer the end. More than that, the resurrection invites us into a transformed life—not just improved, but made new. This message is a clear call to move beyond knowing about Jesus and step into a real relationship with Him, where true life change begins.

In a culture that celebrates independence and self-sufficiency, we often overlook our deep need for authentic, biblical community. In Week 4 of our CrossFit series, Skylar unpacks how spiritual strength is not built in isolation but through intentional relationships that sharpen, support, and challenge us in our walk with Christ. Rooted in Scripture, this message reminds us that God designed us to grow together, not alone, and that real transformation happens when we step into community and allow others to walk alongside us. True strength is formed when we commit to doing life God’s way, together.

The world often makes compassion optional. Meanwhile, the gospel reminds us it is essential. On Compassion Sunday, Pastor Paul turned to 1 John 3:16–18 to show that real love is not just spoken, it is demonstrated. Because Jesus laid down His life for us, we are called to live with that same selfless love, actively caring for those in need. Through a powerful testimony from Jonathan Almonte, a Compassion International sponsor child whose life was transformed, we see how one act of obedience can impact both a life and an eternity. This message challenges us to move beyond intention into action, reminding us that loving like Jesus means stepping in, giving generously, and trusting God to use our obedience to change lives.

When culture tells us to elevate ourselves, protect our position, and chase recognition, the way of Jesus calls us to something radically different. In week three of CrossFit, Pastor Doug walks through Philippians 2:1–11 to reveal how the spiritual disciplines of submission and service reshape our hearts and align us with Christ. Submission is not weakness, but strength under control, a daily choice to trust God and release our need for control. Service is love in motion, breaking down self-centeredness and expanding our compassion for others. As we look to Jesus, who humbled Himself to the point of the cross, we discover that true greatness is found not in being served, but in surrendering our lives for the sake of others.

When life becomes crowded with noise, notifications, and constant activity, it becomes easy to stay busy while missing what matters most. In week two of CrossFit, Pastor Paul turns to Luke 10:38–42 to show how distraction can quietly pull our attention away from Jesus. Through the story of Mary and Martha, we are reminded that the enemy of spiritual depth is often not sin, but distraction. As we embrace the disciplines of simplicity and solitude, we begin removing what competes for our attention and rediscover the peace and clarity found in God’s presence.

When motivation fades and distraction takes over, spiritual growth can feel accidental instead of intentional. In week one of CrossFit, Pastor Paul turns to 1 Timothy 4:7–8 to remind us that you don’t drift into strength, you train into it. Just as physical fitness requires repetition and discipline, so does godliness. Salvation is a moment, but formation is a process. As we reject spiritual myths and embrace intentional habits, we position ourselves for grace to shape our character and transform our lives from the inside out.

When cultural pressure rises, standing firm in truth can feel exhausting. In the final week of Truth in a World of Noise, Pastor Paul turns to Ephesians 6 to remind us that the battle we face is spiritual and the strength we need doesn’t come from intensity, but intimacy with Christ. As we anchor ourselves in God’s truth, we learn how to stand steady in a world constantly pushing us to compromise.

In a world full of competing voices, how do we know when it’s really God speaking? In Part 3 of Truth in a World of Noise, Pastor Paul unpacks Jesus’ words in John 10 to show that recognizing God’s voice isn’t about volume—it’s about relationship. As we grow in intimacy with the Good Shepherd, we learn not only to hear His voice, but to trust it and follow in obedience.

In Truth in a World of Noise – Part 2, Pastor Paul explores a quiet but dangerous reality many believers face: spiritual drift. Drawing from Colossians 2:6–8, this message confronts how truth is often replaced: not by rebellion, but by subtle, reasonable-sounding ideas that slowly move Jesus from the center. Pastor Paul calls us to recognize the voices shaping our thinking, resist deception, and intentionally re-anchor our lives in Christ, reminding us that truth doesn’t drift into our lives, it must be rooted.
