Better Together

CrossRidge Church just finished our sermon series through the book of Titus. We learned just how much better we are together. We learned how important it is to do church the right way. We also learned about the importance of doing good works.  Learning is great, but putting what we learned into action is even better. Paul emphasized good works in the book of Titus. Titus 3:14 says, “And let our people learn to devote themselves to good works, so…

September

This year is flying by. There is still time left to get things done the last four months of the year. Let’s not just do them though, let’s do them well. Let’s do them as Colossians 3:23-24 tells us to, “Whatever you do, do it from the heart, as something done for the Lord and not for people,  knowing that you will receive the reward of an inheritance from the Lord. You serve the Lord Christ.” Let’s take this opportunity…

Be There or Be Square

A week. 7 days. 168 hours. 604,800 seconds. That’s a long time to go from Sunday to Sunday and being in God’s house together. I don’t know how I even make it some weeks! Fortunately, that is about to change. That’s right, our Fall semester is right around the corner. Mark those calendars and clear those schedules because starting September 6th we will get to be together in God’s house with God’s people during the week. Our Fall semester will run…

Let’s Do This

Back to school! Back to school! The Summer seemed to fly by and now it is time for the kids to start a new school year. There are some that are happy about that and some that are not. There are new school supplies and new school clothes. There are new teachers and new classrooms. There are new schedules and new friends. A new school year can bring about a lot of change and that can be overwhelming sometimes. Instead…

There Is Still Work To Be Done

Summer Camp! A week where memories are made and lives are changed. We took 52 children and adults to Camp Copass last month. We also had 19 TREK leaders there from CrossRidge Church leading activities. We had temperatures over 100 every single day. We sweated, we swam, we fished, we made crafts and we played games. We had so much fun at the carnival, we ate a lot of candy and snacks, we stayed up late and we watched fireworks.…

What A Week At Camp Copass

What a week we had at Camp Copass. We stayed up way too late, we made new friends, we belly-laughed, we swam, we watched fireworks and we sweated a lot. We worshipped, we prayed and we learned about Jesus. We are home now washing clothes, showering and probably taking a nap. If you see someone wearing a camp shirt on Sunday, be sure to ask them how their week was and then come back next week to read a full…

A Stellar Week

What a spectacular and stellar week of Vacation Bible School we had. There were countless hours of preparation that went into this event. There were too many memories and new friendships made to even count. Many hours of sleep were lost. Heaps and piles of food was donated to the Little Elm Food Bank and endless snacks were devoured throughout the week. There were also over 2000 water balloons used during recreation time. There were 17 crews of kids going…

Build His Kingdom

On Father’s Day we celebrated Baby/Parent Dedication. By we, I mean everyone had a reason to celebrate. It’s easy to think that just the families involved in the dedication of their children would be celebrating, but this is an opportunity for our entire church family to lift up shouts of joy as we get to join our families in the raising of their children God’s way. We get to walk alongside the parents giving encouragement and support. We get to…

Happy Mother’s Day

Last Sunday was Mother’s Day. Some of us are mothers, while others are still longing for that day. Some of us still have our mothers with us, while others will be holding memories close that day. The title of mom is a very important role in the family. It is not an easy job, but it is a rewarding job. There are good days and there are overwhelming days. No matter what kind of day you are having, I want…

Lord We Need You

We are almost five months into the year. How are you? How is your family? Are you struggling? Are things going well? No matter what you are going through, you are not alone. No matter what you are facing, God is with you. Psalm 120:1 says, “In my distress I cried unto the Lord, and he heard me.” God wants to hear from you. God wants you to call out to Him. God has plans for you and there is…

Celebrate Easter Every Day

Easter is always such a wonderful day of celebrating Jesus’ resurrection, and this Easter was no different. The sanctuary was full, and the tomb was still empty. It was so good to be in God’s house with so many of God’s people. What about the Sunday after Easter or all the Sundays of the year? Are you still celebrating Easter? Jesus is still alive and that is worth celebrating every day! Are you living a life that reflects Easter, a…
