In-Person & On Facebook & ChurchOnline.

Wisdom in a Digital Age

Artificial Intelligence is everywhere. Engineers are using it to translate Scripture into new languages. Have a theological question? You can ask ChatGPT for an answer—even from a specific Christian tradition. You can download a chatbot and “talk” with Moses, Mary, Paul, or even Jesus.

At the same time, AI can generate videos of events that never happened. People are forming relationships with AI companions. There are even support groups for those who’ve been deceived by artificial connections.

In a world where it’s easier to ask ChatGPT than to listen for the Holy Spirit, how should Christians respond?

Is AI just a tool—or is it shaping us in ways we don’t yet see?

Join us as we explore wisdom, discernment, truth, and what it means to follow Jesus in an age of artificial intelligence.

Small Group Discussion Questions
What do you notice about God/Jesus?
What do you notice about people?
Is there a command to obey? A promise to claim? A new idea to ponder?
How can you respond to the text/topic that was preached?

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!
