The Crossing: Windsor Crossing Podcast (Audio)

Authors once wrote that by 2012 technology would help us live a happy and worry-free life. They also said we'd have flying cars. It's now 2012, there's not one flying car to be found, and many of us have more to worry about than ever before. So if technology isn't the answer to reducing the worry in our life, what is the answer? Creative Director Tony Biaggne walks us through a few suggestions from scripture on what we can do when our nerves get the better of us.

Go to church for a small amount of time and you'll most likely hear someone talk about "being in the presence of God". And if you're like any normal person you may scratch your head at this. What does being in the presence of God look like? Do you have to go somewhere for this presence? How does one "be" in the presence in the first place? One of our pastors, Rob Bergman, is going to walk us through this concept and teach us why it's not only a good idea, but a necessary part of life as well.

We complete our Unexpected journey this Christmas at The Crossing.

Lead Pastor Greg Holder leads us on a journey through significant cities that tie into the Christmas story in an unexpected way.

Lead Pastor Greg Holder leads us on a journey through significant cities that tie into the Christmas story in an unexpected way.

It’s been going on for more than two thousand years in small towns and large cities alike. This idea of preparing our hearts and homes for the King who would change history is actually something that was going on long before Christ was even born. Thanks for being here as our Lead Pastor Greg Holder walks us through a city and the story of a kingdom longing for a king.

Keep your eye on the prize. We've heard this before, haven't we? With all of the distractions that are constantly trying to pull us off course, maybe this is something we need to remember, especially during the holiday season. Associate Pastor Jon DuBroc teaches us how to keep our focus on what matters most.

The family tree was designed to give us an ancestral map detailing the "branches" of a family's lineage. Think about your own family tree. If that tree could tell stories about your family, what would it look like? Would it be strong and firmly grounded, or would it be struggling to survive? The truth is our family's history plays a bigger role in who we are than we might think. We're glad you're here as Lead Pastor Greg Holder shares a story from scripture that radically changed the branches of one royal family tree forever.

It's one of those weekends that we'll be talking about for years. The launch of our third campus in Mid Rivers will once again redefine how we collectively serve one another, grow in our faith, and move God's story throughout this city despite being in different locations. If you're new here, you might be thinking, "Yeah, how's that gonna work?" The answer isn't some new fangled technology or slick marketing approach. It's the way God designed us to do life, both with Him and with each other.

Every once in a while it's good to come up for air. This series on 2 Peter has been great, but where do we go from here? Join us as Associate Pastor Tim Bounds gives us a chance to reflect on what God's been doing around here, and to get psyched about what's coming down the pike.

By now you probably agree that this letter from Peter isn't your typical letter. It's packed with standards for living a life modeled after God's heart, how to spot counterfeits, and prophecies of things to come. Like we said, not your typical letter. This weekend we'll take a look at Peter's encouraging final words about why all of this matters to God, and why it should matter to each one of us.

Jesus is coming soon. We’ve heard that before, right? For thousands of years this has been a huge claim of Christianity, but is it true? Join us while Lead Pastor Greg Holder points us to the hope of our faith and the truth that many of us cling to.

End Times. Armageddon. The apocalypse. Whatever you like to call it, the idea of God’s final judgment on the world is a popular topic for critics, fanatics and Hollywood directors alike. So is this whole end of the world thing really in the Bible? In this message, we’re going to look at a warning Peter gives us that’s worth everyone’s attention.

Can you trust the words of the Bible? Absolutely. The same can’t always be said about those who use its words to lead others. This week we’ll hear some strong words from Peter as he offers up a warning against false teachers and heretics of God’s word.

In the midst of a life that can often feel like it’s spinning in a bunch of different directions, it can be hard to keep your bearing. The good news is that there really is something that can guide us along the right path. Call it a compass, a point of light, or a guide; there are a bunch of us who are banking our lives on what it tells us.
