Usually when people look at a church, they notice things like music style, sermon content, various ministries, diverse people and/or whether they felt welcomed.
If you visit Crosspoint or Encuentro@Crosspoint (our Hispanic congregation), I hope you'll notice that really, our driving force is passion for what we call 'the gospel' - which means 'good news'.We have simply discovered the good news that God has graced us through Jesus Christ.
Graced in Our Community. We aren't better than anyone else. We are not trying to impress anyone or prove anything by shoving it down your throat. We are sinners who've been given beautiful, strong purpose for living here and now through God's son Jesus. We want all the implications of God's grace worked deeply into our souls together, and then worked out in our families, our workplaces, our neighborhoods, and our city.
The gospel of Jesus Christ gives us boldness and humility to be who we are and do what we were made to do. We realize we are, at the same time, worse than we thought and more loved than we had ever imagined.
Graced in Our Mission. We're welcoming, growing and training diverse people of this city so that everyone in Smyrna, Atlanta and the world experiences the grace of God through Jesus Christ. Our goal sends us out into everyday life to be a bridge bringing together people who are normally separated from God and each other.
Graced,
Jim Moon Pastor
P.S. If you are wondering how to connect and integrate into our church, that is a great question.
We are developing a handout with a schedule, map and basic beliefs on one side and a pathway to connect into various groups and teams on mission on the other side. Look for one at the next Worship Service.
Also, if you just want to get a sense of what Crosspoint's like (in English) here is a short Q&A I did with a friend of mine who’s skeptical about churches in general. Hope it helps.
