What to expect (make sure you scroll down for more questions and answers)...
Where are you located?
11987 FM 1392, Terrell, TX 75160
What should I expect at Crosspoint?
...a wonderful little red brick building to come into view as you enter our parking lot.
...open parking immediately in front of the drive thru and/or to the left of the building.
...to be received at the door by one of our faithful members.
...to be able to meet the Pastor and our wonderful church members immediately upon entering our building.
...an environment where all ages are welcome to worship. We encourage families to sit together during the worship service.
...a comfortable auditorium where you will find coffee available and a seat to enjoy before the worship service begins.
...worship songs (new and old) on an overhead screen led by a praise band.
...Pastor Paul to guide you through the Scriptures so that you can better love your Creator and Savior.
How do I dress?
Come in jeans and a tee, or if you prefer, come in a dress or suit. You will find a vaiety of styles and all are welcome.
Should I bring a Bible?
Yes. Pastor Paul preaches from the New American Standard and/or the Holman Christian Standard. Their will be a slide show presentation and also handouts with some passages written out. But, bringing your Bible and following along will make you a stronger student of God's Word.
What about my children?
We love kids and welcome them. Again, we want the whole family to worship together. If you fear your child may be a distraction, we do provide some coloring books and a table you can sit with them at. We also have a mothers room with toys and a live feed of the service. But, we hope you will see the value of teaching your children to sit reverently during the worship service. We are all parents and know that this is no easy feat, but is possible.
We do have a youth (grades 6th-12th) bible study on Wednesday nights. Smaller children are encouraged to sit with their parents during the adult Bible study.
Do you have Sunday School?
Not at this time.
I like Crosspoint, how do I join?
One, indicate this on our Communication Card and place in the offering basket. Two, simply approach Pastor Paul and inform him of your desire. You must be born again, baptized, and attend our "Membership Matters" class to be a full-fledged member.
Why don't you have an altar call?
Pastor Paul always ends the sermon with a plea for the lost to repent and receive Christ as Savior and Lord. If you are saved during one of the services, this will become clear to you as the Spirit of Jesus takes up residence in your life. When you become aware of this do let Pastor Paul know. He is there to assist you in your spiritual pilgrimage. The Bible teaches that baptism is the outward sign of your conversion, not walking down an aisle.
What is baptism?
It is a public declaration of your salvation. We do not baptize infancts, but we do baptize anyone who publicly proclaims Christ as Savior and their life declares this change through the fruit of repentance and sanctification. As needed we fill the baptistry and immerse those who have come to saving faith.
