As a Church we believe that God has called us to...
...fulfill the Great Commandment.
Matthew 22:37 states, "And he said to him, 'You shall love the Lord your God with all you heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.' "
The most important aspect of CrossRoads Cowboy Church is that it is Christ centered in all that it does. Following Christ is the vision for the church and lives of its members. We want Christ to be the center of everything and try to do what Jesus would do and have us do.
...fulfill the Great Calling to the Community.
Psalm 148:5 "Praise the name of the Lord, for he commanded and they were created!"
Proverbs 16:4 "The Lord has made everything for its purpose..."
We all have something we can do for the Lord. First and foremost, we were created to give and bring praises to the name of the Lord. Secondly, we all should be involved in some sort of ministry. God has created us for his service. The priority of the Church is to help every individual learn how to worship God and find a place in ministry for God.
...fulfill the Great Commission to the Un-Churched Culture.
Acts 1:8 says "You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all of Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth."
God has called us to reach out to people. We believe that each member of CrossRoads Cowboy Church is responsible in "reaching out" to individuals in their neighborhood. In so doing, we win our community for Christ. We believe that as a Church we should plant other churches, in other neighborhoods, so that we might win the world.
...fulfill the Great Concern of Our Culture
James 5:16 "...and pray for one another", 1 John 4:7 "Beloved, let us love one another...", Romans 12:10 "Love one another with brotherly affection."...
The concern of CrossRoads Cowboy Church is that we illuminate Jesus into the un-churched way of life. We are to be the light that will shine in the darkness. The way we let the light shine is by exhibiting that love for one another. This is the primary reason we come together as a body of believers and the main reason we have contact with others - so that we might practice them, one to another.
