2 Corinthians: Finding Strength in Weakness

Join us all summer long as we study 2 Corinthians. The Apostle Paul’s letter to the church in Corinth is full of practical teaching on what it means to follow Jesus. Corinth was a successful city that was full of power and prestige. Paul is letting the church in Corinth know that there is strength in our weakness.

Small Groups

Join a group today and grow in your faith and community tomorrow.

God has designed each of us to connect with other followers of Jesus. We can help lift one another up when things get tough, celebrate with each other during good times, and grow in our faith together. Small groups are one of the best ways to do this! You don’t need to be an expert in the Bible to be part of a small group - whether you are new to faith or a long-time Jesus-follower, small groups are for you! These groups regularly meet in places like coffee shops, living rooms, and kitchens.

Finding a Small Group

We would love to help connect you with a Small Group. To join a group, click on the "Find a Group Here" button below. Need more help, then click on "Small Group Interest Form" and we'll help you find a group that works for you. You can always Contact Pastor Libby Englehorn.

Volunteer & Make a Difference

One of the best ways to get connected is by serving!

We value not just growing in our faith but doing something with our faith! Serving within the walls of this church and (even more importantly) going out into the community and the world is a vital part of what God created us to do. When we serve and volunteer we are being Christ followers by doing what He did. It is how we show the world what the love of God is like. We serve inside and outside of the church, Sundays and all week long.

Take a Next Step and “Go Deeper”

We want everyone who comes to Crossview to connect to Jesus Christ. We do that by taking steps on our spiritual journey in four different areas of our spiritual lives in worship, community, serving, and giving generously. Jesus wants to work through us to bring hope and healing to our neighbors, friends, and those on the margins. Wherever you are on your faith journey, there is always a next step and a way to "go deeper." Connecting to Jesus transforms us, our families, neighborhoods, city and world!
