What's a small group and why should I be in one?
While knowing Christ is what drives life transformation, our day-to-day journey is greatly improved by living life side-by-side with other people who are also exploring and growing in their faith. Being in real-life, authentic community with other believers provides opportunity for support, encouragement, counsel, prayer, care, inspiration, and accountability�all ingredients that are essential for achieving fuller life in Christ. CrossCurrent believes living in community is so essential that we mark it as one of our six core values: "Life change will occur best in small groups, therefore every believer should be part of a small group."
One of the easiest ways to plug into real-life Christian community is to get to know ten or twelve other people in a laid back, down-to-earth setting like a small group. CrossCurrent small groups get together regularly (weekly, bi-weekly, even monthly) to hang out together, resource each other, serve together, and help shape each other�s lives.
The main point of small groups is to hang out, get to know each other as real people, connect over real life, and discover a very real God. All of the CrossCurrent small groups work toward one essential end: helping people figure out how to progress one step closer to full life in Christ. If you've never been part of a small group, take a moment and check out the possibilities. Feel free to give the leaders a call and ask questions. Get involved in one today!

Do you ever feel like you struggle to find ways to connect with people from other religious backgrounds, whether it be at work or in the mall? This men's bi-weekly small group is currently focusing on learning the basics of all the major world religions, their similarities and differences to Christianity and how to spread Jesus' message to them. Each lesson focuses on a different religion and how to make connections with the people that practice that religion.p>

We will be studying Beth Moore's study, Daniel: Lives of Integrity, Words of Prophecy shows how individuals can live with integrity in today's self-centric society. Join Beth in a faith-building study of prophecy and learn how to shine for Christ in our modern culture. Just as the prophet Daniel faced unbelievable pressures� to compromise his faith, to live in a hostile culture, and to confront temptations and threats�today's believers face many of the same trials.
This 12-session study, falls in two parts. The first portion, from Daniel chapters 1-6, deals with Daniel's life as he faced the kind of pressures and temptations Christians encounter today. Daniel models how to develop enduring integrity in an enticing world. The second portion, chapters 7-12, explores thrilling prophecies from the time of Daniel through the second coming of Christ.

There is something about sharing our stories and entering into the lives of others that declare God's love and glory through our lives. God's guidance is near at hand. He is not only our Authority, he is also our Author. As God writes the stories of our lives, he uses our past to open up our future. It is our privilege to listen to our own story so that we can live boldly for the sake of the Greatest Story, the good news of Jesus Christ. God reveals himself to us�and to others�through the story he has written in our life. We will ask God's spirit to direct us in this and pray for one another. We will uncover lies that we believe, strong holds that keep us tied down and agreements we make that keep us from being all God has created us to be as women.

This outreach small group is called "Michael's Marauders" and will be "actively seeking out the lost and freeing the captive." Its focus is building the capacity of the members to share Jesus in a competent and honest manner and take it to the streets.
Using a common passion for motorcycles, we'll be taking 2 weekend rides to special events and biker hangouts, as well as participating as a group in events like the Memorial Day "Ride to the Wall." We'll be trying to bring the lost and seekers God shows us to church on Sundays.

The Bible is the only book that authenticates itself through happenings in this world. Previously fulfilled prophecy lend credibility to prove the Bible�s claim to be the word of God, and prophecy that is yet to be fulfilled will do the same, and that is why we should prepare.�For the essence of prophecy is to give a clear witness for Jesus.� �Rev. 19:10
Sharing Biblical prophecy in an intelligent fashion with others can be a powerful witnessing tool. Describing fulfilled prophecy or investigating prophecies that are coming to fruition before our eyes can be absolutely intriguing to a non-believer allowing you to share the light and hope that we have in Jesus. Studying Biblical prophecy will also help you in your own walk with the Lord. It will help you to see the troubles that you have in your day to day lives in an eternal perspective, by knowing the plans that the Father has for us. Prophecy is the essence of the gospel message. It is the promise of Heaven. It is the hope of salvation. It is the joy of eternity with Christ.
�This is all the more urgent, for you know how late it is; time is running out. Awaken from sleep, for our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.� - Romans 13:11

The Churches continued growth leans heavily upon its structure of discipleship. Faithful me and women must instruct, exhort, and encourage young believers in the LORD. No better example of such Biblical discipleship exists than what is recorded in the Apostle Paul's second letter to his son in faith Timothy. Careful attention to Paul's committed investment in Timothy will remind you of important principles for growth - be courageous, guard the truth, work faithfully, endure and be faithful to the WORD. Don't miss this outstanding opportunity to increase your heart for discipleship and to make a difference for the LORD in your church today.

The vision is that the prayer team would be a ministry of trust and encouragement. Those who desire prayer would willingly come forward without reservations or fear, but in trust of confindentiality. Knowing that someone is there to listen, pray and encourage.
"I looked for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found none. Lord, give us the wisdom and strength to stand in the gap for those who cannot. Amen."
