The Next Leg of the Journey

While traveling in Uganda recently, I asked one of my Ugandan hosts about how long it would take to make the trip from our base guesthouse to a school on the opposite side of town. His reply? "It depends upon what you want to see." What I envisioned as a trip - one such as I make a dozen times each day - he perceived as a journey. Where I expected direct-route GPS trip precision, he saw the twisting, winding possibilities of a journey.

Crosspointe has been on a thirty-month journey - a spiritual odyssey of sorts - that has forced us to challenge the assumptions that have girded our faith-community to this point. We've abandoned certain assumptions that we have always had about how faith and followership are expressed within our church. We've had to leave behind things we thought would be or should be part of the church experience. In the end, we found ourselves well off the map but fully engaged with the Map Maker.

Has it been a difficult journey? Absolutely. Have we become impatient a time or two? Without a doubt. But God has faithfully led us to the next waypoint on our journey.

Recently we acquired 6,000 square feet of space in the Hebron Plaza shopping center located at 2425 West Parker RD in Hebron. We believe this is the next leg of the journey that God is showing us. We hope you are as excited as we are to see what God will do in our lives as well as the lives of the people around us through this new facility. We want you to be apprised of our progress in making this space a great location for Crosspointe. To see what is taking place, you may click through the slideshow below.
