Who We Are

Where Christ is ALL!

We have discovered through the Word and personal relationship with Christ an attitude which is the basis of the Kingdom of God. It is the attitude of the cross. Christ did not live His own life, but surrendered His life to the Father. This surrender was so complete it could be called “death.” Thus the death of Christ on the cross was only a physical display of the style of His life. Jesus did not operate on His own or out of His own resource, but lived in the continual flow of what the Father would do through Him.

If we produce a Christianity which is a product of our own discipline and action, we have not produced Christianity but a religion. Through the indwelling of the Spirit of Christ, He will live His life through us. The wonder of Christianity is the outside God who has come to be inside our personal lives. He is sourcing us which enables us to live far beyond ourselves. This intimate relationship with the indwelling Christ is the heart of the belief of the Cross Style Church.

Our Core Values

A consuming focus on and response to the indwelling Person of Jesus producing:

The New Testament life of being sourced by Him through the Spirit
The exposition of the Word as a lifestyle and basis for all ministry
The proclamation of the Message to as many people as possible
The facilitation and discipleship of others in the Message

What to Expect

What are services like?
We come to celebrate the Person of Jesus and what He is and has been doing in and through our lives all week. The entire focus is Jesus. Every song we sing, sermon we hear, and the fellowship and ministries we participate in are all centered upon Him. Every worship service is an opportunity for the revelation of and intimacy with Jesus Christ to deepen in our lives.

What is the community like?
A very friendly bunch of people who are excited about Jesus. There is a genuine love for one another as we encourage and point each other into greater depths with Jesus Christ. We love fellowship and spending time with one another - both inside and outside the church.

What if I'm not a Christian?
We would love to have you stop by and check us out. Though we long for you to have an intimate relationship with Jesus, we want you to know you are welcome and will be loved. We do not shy away from the Gospel, and if you do attend, please note that you will hear Truth. Our hope is that you will respond to the Truth as Jesus makes Himself known in your life.

    This church is a disgrace. I comment you on helping those in recovery, but I do not accept that fact that it’s ok for your men and women in recovery to be hooking up at church. Yes this is happening as we speak. Your house managers, are setting a horrible example
