Imagine Las Vegas. Ok, now imagine it 100x worse. You might be starting to get an idea of what ancient Corinth might've been like.In a city known for it's lack of morality (to put it lightly), God used Paul to completely flip the city on its head. This week, Kyle Ranson shows us the real, hard evidence of how God used Paul (who called himself "worst of sinners") to be transformed, and how we can do the same. Recorded in Corinth, Greece, and Cincinnati, Ohio.
What does it take to run your race with endurance? The middle of the race is where many people quit, but it’s also where endurance is built. In 1 Corinthians 9:25–27, Paul compares the Christian life to a race that requires discipline, perseverance, and spiritual training. Filmed in Athens, Greece, this message from Kyle Ranson explores how Paul endured a difficult season while standing before the Areopagus, one of the most intimidating places in the ancient world. Through his example, we discover why spiritual breakthrough often comes through perseverance, what strict training helps us stay faithful, and how God endures for us as we endure for Him.Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.
We have good news and bad news. Bad news: suffering exists. The good? God can actually use that suffering to make you better. That thing that is beating you down and makes you want to give up can be the very thing God uses to shape you into who He wants you to be.This week, we go on location with Kyle Ranson in the ancient city of Philippi to learn Paul's story of suffering and how God used it to shape not just Paul, but all of world history. Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.
God didn't call you to a life on the sidelines. There's new ground God wants you to take — and it will stretch you beyond your comfort zone. That’s the point.This week, we dive into what Paul really meant when he said "run in a way to get the prize"—by actually following his footsteps in Tarsus (modern-day Turkey). This week, Kyle Ranson helps us to see what he saw then, and feel what God is calling you to right now.Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.
What's #1 way to lose a race? To not know you're running one. Many of us are grinding away at our job, with kids, in our side hustles. But what if God has an entirely different race for you? This week, we look at the life of Paul. He was running down one road, until God literally stopped him in his tracks and set him on a new path. This week, Brian Tome shows us how God might be telling us to do the sameRecorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Crossroads’ Super Bowl of Preaching is full of tailgating, hysterical commercials, two smack-talking teams going head-to-head, a halftime show, and some actual Biblical teaching that might change your life.Recorded live at Crossroads in Cincinnati, Ohio.
What if the bold prayers you’ve been thinking about are the very ones God is waiting to hear? This weekend, we’re not just talking about prayer — we’re doing it. You’ll be guided through a real, raw, and powerful prayer experience. One that helps you bring your biggest hopes, fears, and faith straight to God.Grab a pen. Find a quiet spot. And let's lean in.
When you hear "ferocious", you might think a wild animal attacking it's prey (or maybe your aunt when she doesn't have her morning coffee). But what if that's actually the way Jesus wants us to pray? You have an enemy that's ferocious. This week, Chuck Mingo shows us why and how we can partner with Jesus to take the fight back to him. Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Some of us are praying too safe. Praying for comfort is nice sometimes, but we aren't just made to pray that we don't get a nail in our tire or that our pizza is still hot when we get home. We're made to pray in a way that brings Heaven to earth. Things so big only God can do them. This week, Kyle Ranson shows us how God doesn't just ask us to pray safe. He asks us to pray big. Recorded live at Crossroads in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Prayer is harder than scrolling headlines—and that’s exactly why it matters. Jesus didn’t run on hype or people-pleasing. He ran on prayer. He didn’t pray because He lacked power; He prayed because prayer was the foundation of His power. And He invites us to ask boldly, seek intentionally, and knock persistently. There are things God may only do if you ask. Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.

What do you do when your Christmas isn't perfect?Shouldn't Christmas be perfect? Presents under the tree, stockings by the fireplace, family you actually like being around...the problem is, all those things you see in the movies rarely happen in real life. This week, Brian Tome shows us how Clark Griswold's pursuit of a perfect Christmas in the classic, Christmas Vacation, mirrors what a lot of us are looking for in the Christmas season. The only problem is: the first Christmas wasn't perfect to begin with. Join us as we learn about a God who makes perfection out of chaos. Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Why does A Christmas Story still hit after all these years?
In Part 3 of Christmas at the Movies, we uncover why this classic connects so deeply and how it points to the heart of Christmas itself. Beneath the nostalgia is a powerful truth: God isn’t a taskmaster, He’s a giver. From childhood longing to the Christmas story in Scripture, this message explores what it means to trust a generous Father.
What would you ask God for this Christmas if you really believed He was good?

Fake can look pretty (ever heard of Instagram?), but sometimes our lives can feel like that fake Christmas tree in your living room. It's beautiful, perfect, and also..sterile and lifeless.
This week, Kyle Ranson uses the Bible (and also the classic "A Charlie Brown Christmas") to show us how God stepped away from perfection to chase something better: you.

What’s your Christmas season strategy? All of us have one. Maybe you’re trying to wring every bit of cheer out of the holiday like it’s a tube of toothpaste, or maybe you have a schedule so bare it would make the Grinch jealous.But what if there’s a better way? This week, Alli shows us how strategies we find in the most unlikely of places (like, say, 2004's “Christmas with the Kranks”) points us back to a timeless truth of how to get the most out of this holiday.

Deserts and rainforests. One day life feels like you’re stuck in a desert, begging for rain. Other times feel like rainforests—life is lush and you’re swinging through the vines like George of the Jungle.
Why does God feel so far away in one, yet, so close in another?
This week, Brian Tome shows us how God isn’t just with us in the good times, but uses every season of life to accomplish His main goal—to make us look more like Him.

Imagine this: you’re lost in the woods. Your flashlight just died. Your phone, too (turns out flashlight mode makes that happen faster??). What do you do?
All of us have lies whispered to us that we carry around that want to KEEP us stumbling around in the dark.
This week, Kyle Ranson shows us how when you feel lost in the valley, there’s not only a light, but there’s a light that comes to find you. (Also, this is a part 2. If you missed it, go back and watch Kyle’s last talk before this, and thank us later).
