Shaped - Part 2

In this series, "Shaped," several staff members and friends of Crosspoint will explore the pivotal scriptures that helped form their faith. Last week, Pastor Paul reminded us that our salvation is solely by grace, not by our works.
In this week's message, Pastor Doug Ingram explains how Jesus + nothing = everything.
Key Scripture: Galatians 2:20 (ESV) – “I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me.”
Stay tuned for more in our "Shaped" series, where we will continue exploring the Scriptures that have transformed us and can transform you too.

The Gap - Part 5

In the final message of "The Gap" series, Pastor Paul delves into the challenging topic of The Conflict Gap.Throughout this series, we've discussed the gap, the space between where we are and where we want to be.
To help navigate these conflicts, Pastor Paul introduces the "Triple A" approach: Audience, Attitude, and Alternatives. Drawing from Matthew 18:15-17, he highlights the significance of addressing issues directly with the person involved. The right attitude, as outlined in James 3:17, is crucial, emphasizing qualities such as peace-loving, considerateness, and sincerity. Additionally, James 1:5 reminds us to seek divine wisdom as an alternative when facing conflicts.
Drawing from Ephesians 4:26-27, he emphasizes not letting anger fester: "In your anger do not sin; do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold."
Finally, Colossians 3:13 reinforces the importance of forgiveness, urging us to forgive as the Lord forgave us. Pastor Paul reminds us that the Holy Spirit guides us, urging us to address conflicts not only with others but also with God.

The Gap: Part 4

In Part 4 of our sermon series "The Gap," Pastor Paul dives deep into the challenges we face in our faith journey, exploring the gap between what we know and believe about God and the overwhelming circumstances that can shake our trust.
In this message, we explore the story from Mark 9, where a desperate father's faith is tested as he seeks healing for his son. The father's raw honesty and vulnerability echo the struggles many of us face when our faith is confronted by life's difficulties. Pastor Paul unpacks the lessons we can learn from this encounter and shares practical steps to navigate our own faith gaps.
📖 Key Scripture:Mark 9:24 (NIV) - "Immediately the boy’s father exclaimed, 'I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!'"
🔍 Sermon Highlights:
* Identifying the Faith Gap: Pastor Paul discusses the profound challenge of maintaining faith in the face of overwhelming circumstances.
* Lessons from the Father:- Seeking help from religious leaders and disciples.- Going to Jesus with honesty and vulnerability.- Admitting weaknesses and asking for divine intervention.- Holding onto faith and leaning in even when the situation seems dire.
* The Power of Faith: Faith is not just a belief; it's what emerges when our beliefs are tested and refined through life's trials.
* Finding Hope in the Midst of Trials:Even when we encounter situations where there seems to be no resolution, Pastor Paul reminds us that we can choose to stand by God. Our faith can be strengthened through life's challenges, leading to a deeper, more authentic relationship with the divine.
