Who is discipling your kids about sex & gender? Our kids are growing up in a sexually broken and confusing world. Rather than simply reacting to this reality, we need to equip our kids with a gospel vision for human sexuality before they go looking for or discover answers on their own.
At this conference, parents and caregivers will walk away with:

Proactive Parenting Tools
Biblical Clarity on Sexuality and Gender
Foundational & Practical Tools for Living in a Porn-Saturated World
Language for Age-Appropriate Conversations
Ways to Guard Your Family Against Sexual Abuse
A Gospel Vision of Human Sexuality.

Relationship struggles and sexual brokenness can make you feel ashamed, trapped, and alone. For over 20 years, Avenue has helped people restore their lives and relationships. Get into this private healing group for men and experience Biblically sound materials, a supportive environment, and both accountability and encouragement.
Don’t wait! Sexual struggles can be so difficult to talk about, but once you have shined the light on your struggle, the power it has over you will begin to weaken. You need a supportive community.

Men's | Captivity to Freedom
2025-11-06 19:00 - 20:30, 2025-10-30 19:00 - 20:30 | Crossroads Bible Church, 800 Scribner NW, Grand Rapids, 49504, United States
Captivity to Freedom is a community offered to men who feel captive to the slavery of sin. The truth is that many men are stuck in sexual bondage, stuck in slavery to porn and lustful thoughts. To you, Jesus says, “I have come to proclaim release to the Captives, and Freedom to the oppressed.” Join a small group of guys who are pursuing holiness and healing together. Group runs weekly from September through May. There is also a group offered on Wednesday mornings from 6:00-7:30AM.
Registration required. Please reach out to Andy with any questions.
“Sixteen years ago I was shackled to every sinful desire I could imagine. My whole life I “knew” of Jesus, but that simple knowledge did nothing to free me from a life of slavery. Somewhere deep in my soul I desired freedom but I honestly had never even thought it was possible. My marriage was deteriorating, and I was a drunk that was driven by fear and lust.. Then God…, through the love and counsel of a brother in Christ, walked me through steps of repentance and forgiveness. Jesus destroyed the chains that held me captive. Then, and only then, through the love and unconditional acceptance of Jesus could I find true Freedom, as a Child of God.”
– Andy Antcliff, Men’s Group Leader

Women's Retelling Retreat
2025-11-06 - 2025-11-09 | Fennville
The heart of a woman is wired to find connection with God and with others. We invite the women of Crossroads to a meaningful weekend of discovery—of knowing and being known—with other sisters in Christ on the journey.
For many women, getting away for an extended time is a tough, complicated ask, yet disconnecting from the grind and finding rest is truly needed for our souls. At a retelling retreat, you will find space to rest and reflect, enjoy one another, and gather with others to share about our journeys.
Women who have participated in a Retelling Retreat found that the weekend offered space for their hearts to come alive to the Lord as they engaged their stories with curiosity and compassion.
The goals for the weekend are:

Resting and reflecting on your journey and your Father
Sharing our stories in a comfortable, safe space
Exploring how the enemy uses our stories to impair us relationally and missionally
Learning how to embrace the truth of the gospel
Inviting us to develop healthy and vulnerable Kingdom relationships
Grasping God’s love for you through your relationship with Him and other sisters in Christ
Providing space for fun and connection with other sisters in Christ

Cost is $375 and includes all your lodging, travel, and food. If finances are a barrier, please reach out to Stephanie.
Please note that there is a mandatory pre-trip on October 23rd at 7pm and a post-trip on November 20th at 7pm.

Men's | Bible Study Fellowship

This year’s study, Exile and Return, invites you on a powerful journey through the Old Testament, where God’s people were called to build His kingdom in a foreign land. Their story is our story—we, too, are strangers in a broken world, called to build for His glory. As we explore how God equips and positions His people, we’re challenged to ask: Am I building my life for Christ? Exile and Return reminds us that our time to build is now.
Books included in this year’s study: Ezekiel, Daniel, Ezra, Esther, Haggai, Zechariah, Nehemiah, and Malachi.
For more information or if you have questions, please visit Bible Study Fellowship’s website.

Men's | Band of Brothers
2025-11-05 06:00 - 07:00, 2025-10-29 06:00 - 07:00 | Crossroads Cave, 800 Scribner NW, Grand Rapids, MI, 49504, United States
Band of Brothers is a small community of men who gather every Wednesday morning in the Cave to study the Bible and grow together. We pray, share, study and talk about how to live as men through our faith in Jesus. We meet every Wednesday morning at 6:00 am and wrap up by 7:00. We meet in person but also offer Zoom attendance if needed. Coffee and friendship are always offered. Band of Brothers is always open for new guys, so if you want to connect right away, make some new friends and get into God’s Word, reach out to the leader via email and jump in. Please contact Ray Carmichael before joining us on a Wednesday morning.
“My wife and I started attending Crossroads in the summer of 2017, having moved to Grand Rapids from Chicago. We didn’t know anyone at church but knew God had led us there. I needed a group of men who I could trust, enjoy and be honest with. I found it in Band of Brothers where I have grown in my faith, encouraged by others and stretched in my understanding of Scripture. This group has become one of the most important parts of my personal and faith experiences.”
– Ray Carmichael
Deb and I started attending Crossroads in the fall of 2017. It wasn’t long before I attended some men’s events, then began coming to Band of Brothers on Wednesday mornings. It makes a big church feel smaller. The encouragement and challenge I get from studying God’s Word together, and from talking to, and praying with the other guys in the group are necessities in my life. I’m grateful to have this group!
