Halloween @ The Wilsons

Bats, Laughs, & One Cool Costume

In honor of Halloween I’ve got a few videos for you.  The first one is one of the stupidest videos I’ve ever seen but for some reason I can’t stop watching it. I saw it the other day and it makes me laugh every time I think about it.. Please know in advance there is [...]

Usually this time of year there are all kinds of debates about “should Christians celebrate Halloween?” Of course if you’re a really good Christian it seems you will simply have a “Fall Festival” where you will do exactly what everyone else does on Halloween (costumes and candy) except you’ll only invite Christians which somehow makes [...]

Right There

If you were at Cross Point this past weekend you know we made a series of huge announcements regarding the future of Cross Point. Just 5 weeks from now we’ll be coming together as a church to pledge how much we can give above and beyond our regular giving over the course of the next [...]

Miracles Always Follow Obedience

Yesterday at Cross Point we launched a new series entitled Faith, Hope & Love. I really believe this is going to be an exciting season of spiritual growth for our community. We looked at this idea that there is an unmistakable correlation between the miracles God did in history and the unusual commands He gave [...]

It’s always a highly anticipated edition as they do a great job of highlighting some cool restaurants, businesses, and places to visit. This year is their 20th anniversary for the list!!
