Crossroads Church

What are you made for?It's easy to go through life, wondering if we're actually doing what we're supposed to do. We show up to work, watch some shows, go to bed, wake up, and do it again. Are we...doing it?This week, Brian Tome unpacks the four roles King David filled in one the most consequential lives ever lived—Warrior. King. Father. Friend. Even if you don’t have a Y chromosome, there’s something here for you about stepping into who God made you to be—and living a life that has eternal impact.

You can run from God by breaking all the rules. You can also run from God by keeping all of them.In Luke 15, Jesus tells the story of two lost sons—one lost in rebellion, the other lost in religion. Both think they know how to relate to the Father. Both get it wrong.This week, Kyle Ranson unpacks why neither rebellion nor religion can connect us to God—but why no matter which direction you wander, God still moves toward you in love.

Some of you are watching this on the way to somewhere else. Why do we live our lives in such a hurry?We blame distraction, packed calendars, and endless responsibilities—but underneath all that busyness is often something deeper: anxiety. Fear. The need to protect something we’re scared of losing.This week, Chuck Mingo looks at how anxiety exposes what our identity is really built on—and why being yoked to Jesus can bring a kind of relief no productivity hack ever could.

What if the problem isn’t that you’re carrying too much—but that you’re carrying the wrong things?Jesus never promised a life without weight.He promised a weight that fits. In Matthew 11:28–30, Jesus invites us to put down the identities, expectations, and pressures we were never meant to carry—and pick up the life He actually made us for.This week, Brian Tome helps us to discover what Jesus wants you to drop, what’s actually yours to carry, and why following Him can make even a full life feel lighter.

You have a default system setting that’s draining your battery: control. And when it’s time for an upgrade, most of us just keep hitting “Remind Me Later.” Control feels safe because it’s familiar. We plan, predict, manage, and try to guarantee the outcome. But eventually, control makes our lives smaller—and our relationships harder.This week, Alli Patterson shows us why we’ve mistaken a controllable life for a faithful one, and what happens when we finally uninstall control and learn to trust God instead.
