SUMMARY:Elective | In a Secular World\, What's Good About the Gospel?
DESCRIPTION:Crossroads’ former Associate Pastor\, Dr. Neil Martin\, has lived and served for the past 10 years in one of the world’s most secular cities – Oxford. In a place where self-determination is the highest value\, and every student is only as good as the last grade they received\, you wouldn’t expect to find much excitement about the gospel. And yet\, Neil and his colleagues have never seen so much spiritual openness. \nCome and find out why surrendering to Jesus and admitting how much we need him makes just as much sense as it ever did\, even when the world changes. \nPlus: desserts from Grand Traverse Pie Company\, real English tea\, and an update on the ministry of B-Less to students in Oxford and beyond.

SUMMARY:Elective | In a Secular World\, Why Do We Need the Bible?
DESCRIPTION:Crossroads’ former Associate Pastor\, Dr Neil Martin\, has lived and served for the past 10 years in one of the world’s most secular cities – Oxford. The last thing you would think this constituency would be hungry for is the Bible. So why does a crowd of non-Christian students gather there every Monday night to hear and discuss passages from the gospels? And why is the church plant where Neil serves fuller than ever before with seekers? \nCome and find out how the arrival of secularism is creating opportunities for effective outreach and paths to deepen our confidence in the centrality and brilliance of God’s word. \nPlus: desserts from Grand Traverse Pie Company\, real English tea\, and an update on the ministry of B-Less to students in Oxford and beyond.

SUMMARY:On Mission | Family Promise
DESCRIPTION:Are you passionate about being part of ending the family homelessness crisis in Grand Rapids? So are we! Crossroads is privileged to host a week-long emergency family shelter three times a year in collaboration with Family Promise of Grand Rapids. We will be hosting October 22-29. To make this possible\, we need an army of volunteers to step in and provide welcome & hospitality. There are a handful of ways you can do this…through making meals\, spending time with families in the evening\, staying overnight\, setting up/tearing down and a handful of other ways! Please join us in loving these precious families during our next week. Our next week will be January 21\, 2024. Contact Bethany if you have any questions or would like additional information. \nSign Up to Help\nTo learn more about On Missions Ministry\, click here.

SUMMARY:Family Meals
DESCRIPTION:Join a meal around the table with others from Crossroads during September 24th through October 8th! A Crossroads Family Meal\, at its simplest\, is a means to connect with others who call Crossroads “home”. There is so much importance in slowing down and joining with one another around the table to break bread and share stories of God’s provision and presence in our lives. The table is where relationships are deepened\, where family reconnects and where God’s faithfulness is proclaimed. We invite you to join us for a meal! \nWe love that these meals have become a regular part of the rhythm of community at Crossroads. Friends opening their homes to those in the same neighborhood or with the same heartbeat and passions; making connections and developing true friendship and family. It’s our way of making the larger Crossroads family smaller. These meals aren’t just for new people\, but for everyone. We hope it’s a way to bring the mission of God into the ordinary: where we live. If you have questions\, please email Jen. \nRegister Here
