Acts 17:1-10 - When God Plants A Church

February 18, 2024 - 08:08 PM Sermon Series1 Thessalonians


When life is difficult, it is easy to become discouraged. We long for easier days. As Christians, when society is against us, it is tempting to think our relationship with Jesus will fade and the church will wilt. As we begin the book of 1 Thessalonians, we find the opposite is true. 1 Thessalonians is the story of healthy Christians and a thriving church in a city hostile to the gospel. Join us as we learn that God does some of his best work in us and through us when the world is against us.

Acts 10:1-43 - Go Big For The Gospel

November 14, 2021 - 06:46 PM Sermon SeriesVision


As we remember Veteran’s Day, we are especially grateful for soldiers who take big risks to save lives. Currently, there are marines risking their lives in Afghanistan rescuing civilians caught behind enemy lines. One of those marines has rescued more than 30 people. Our hearts are inspired by soldiers like that who go big to save lives. In a similar way, we want to be a church filled with people that go big to share the gospel. We want to take big risks when it comes to saving lives eternally for God.

1 Peter 2:12 - Good Works, Good Will, And Good News

November 07, 2021 - 05:43 PM Sermon SeriesVision


On December 17, 1941, North Platte residents gathered at the Union Pacific Depot because they heard that a troop train carrying the Nebraska National Guard would be coming through town. When the train stopped, it was actually the Kansas National Guard. After a few moments of awkward silence, the people of the town surged forward and shared their Christmas gifts with the young men on board. After all, they were someone’s children and it was Christmas time. That night, young Rae Wilson penned a letter to the editor asking North Platte to open a Canteen at the depot that would feed other troops passing through town. Little did she know that she was starting an endeavor that would last 54 months, involving 12,000 volunteers and feeding more than 6 million servicemen and women. The North Platte Canteen remains the largest volunteer movement in United States history. This extraordinary act of kindness made North Platte one of the most loved towns for troops returning from the war. Just as the good works of a small town transformed lives, as Christians, God calls us to be about good works which God will use to help transform lives with the gospel. Join us to see how good works lead to good will which opens the door to the good news.

October 31, 2021 - 07:27 PM Sermon SeriesVision


With the prices at the gas pump hitting record highs, lawnmowers being outlawed in California, and empty store shelves while hundreds of container ships float off the California coast, the last thing we want is more change. The church feels like it is the one place that should be safe from change. As we turn to 1 Corinthians 9, we find the Bible telling us we must change. Join us as we learn how we must change for the sake of the gospel.

Luke 15:1-10 - We Are 4 The 1 Who Is Lost.

October 24, 2021 - 06:52 PM Sermon SeriesVision


This week the remains of Brian Laundrie were found in Florida. The feverish hunt for Brian revived the search for many others who have gone missing. Unfortunately, most are never found. On the rare occasion when people are saved, it is one of the greatest joys a family can experience. This weekend we begin a series on CrossWind’s 5-Year Vision. We will learn how much joy God experiences when someone far from God is saved and comes home.

January 24, 2021 - 09:42 AM Sermon Series2 Timothy


Chick-Fil-A is the most popular restaurant chain in America. Unfortunately there are times when city councils and universities forbid the chain from opening a restaurant in their community because of their Christian beliefs and practices. It is not just Chick-Fil-A that pays a price for identifying themselves with Jesus. Each of us will experience shame and embarrassment when we talk about Jesus in public. How do we find the courage to speak for Jesus when we are shamed for Him? Join me as we learn how the Apostle Paul prepared Timothy to suffer for Jesus in a world where you could lose your life if you spoke about Him.

Mark 12:35-37 - Who Is Jesus?

March 08, 2020 - 01:52 PM Sermon SeriesGospel of Mark



Everyone will eventually answer the question, "Who is Jesus?" To many, he was nothing more than a good teacher. Some hate Jesus. Others love Jesus. As we continue in the Gospel of Mark, Jesus takes the religious leaders of Judaism to the Old Testament where he proves to them where his authority is found. He is much more than just a man. He is the man that is God.

If someone were to ask you what they needed to do to become a Christian, what would you say? Across the country, pastors are inviting people to become Christians, but how do we know they are giving the right invitation? In this message, we look at the original gospel invitation given by Jesus. Surprisingly, most of today's gospel invitations do not look anything like the original one.

In this series, we cover seven core values that drive the Faith Church experience. Our seventh core value is culture. Many churches encourage you to escape culture and condemn it.

FINGERPRINT - Gospel

At Faith Church, what can you expect? In this series, we cover seven core values that drive the Faith Church experience. We want them felt across all campuses. Our third core value is we believe it is the simple gospel message that has the power to change lives and grow the church. The simple gospel message is in short supply. A survey from LifeWay Resources of 450 American sermons randomly pulled from across the country revealed only 6% contained the entire gospel message. A natural strategy is to use anything in place of the Gospel to grow the church. At Faith, we believe the power to change lives and grow the church is in of the simple message of the gospel.

John 17 - Profane Church

August 04, 2013 - 10:13 AM Sermon SeriesGospel of John



Today, churches feel like a coffee shops. Preachers dress in jeans and shirts from The Buckle instead of suits. There are video projection screens and colored lights. Sometimes church feels more like entertainment. How much should the church become like the world? What would Jesus do? In John 17, we look at Jesus' prayer for how his disciples would carry on the mission of connecting people to God through his life. His prayer is that we would be profane in the way we do it. What does that mean? Join us as discover what it means to be a profane church that follows a profane savior.

John 7 - Jesus Divides

When you bring Jesus into a conversation, you instantly polarize the room. Some people love him, others hate him. In our desire to avoid offending others, we keep quiet about Jesus and wait for an opportune moment. Is that the way the Jesus presented himself? Was the early church known for waiting for just the right moment so they were sure not to offend? It was just the opposite. They brought Jesus into conversations expecting he would divide the room. That is the way the church grew.

John 3:17-21 - What About Those Who Don't Believe in Jesus?

In 2011, Rob Bell, the senior pastor of Mars Hill Church in Michigan, published a controversial book titled, "Love Wins: A book about heaven, hell and the fate of every person who ever lived." In it, Robs says, "What if the story of heaven and hell we have been taught is not, in fact, what the bible teaches…. how could it be good news if billions suffer in hell while only a select few go to heaven?" Rob proposes that hell is a type of reform school from which everyone will eventually graduate. Is this true? Join us as we let the Bible tell us about heaven, hell and the fate of every person who ever lived.

Nobody likes suffering. It separates us from life's pleasures. Suffering frequently looks like nothing more than purposeless agony. There is suffering that is purposeful.
