JESUS CHANGES LIVES ETERNITIES FAMILIES LEGACIES COMMUNITIES EVERYTHING
Cross+Crown Church is committed to the Lordship of Jesus Christ and the authority of His inerrant Word, the 66 books of the Old and New Testaments, in all matters of faith and practice.
At Cross+Crown we strive to be a family of saved, sanctified and transformed people that live for the glory of God in all we do. We commit to always make space for new people, doubters, and those who have yet to believe.
As an organization we exist as a family of churches in multiple locations. We are committed to Biblical eldership. The organization is led by an executive leadership team of qualified elders. The local churches are led by elders that operate under the leadership of the local lead pastor. As a group, the local elders support the lead pastor and hold him accountable.
Our local congregations operate in a marriage of independence and interdependence, but never autonomously. While the local churches share a common vision and mission, resources, best practices, organizational leadership and systems, they are locally staffed, locally led and locally responsible to own the lostness of their geography.
MISSION & VISION

When the World Sets Up a Throne
Sexuality and spirituality share the same longings. The desire to be known. The desire to be loved. The desire for intimacy and belonging. We want those things from God, and we want them from one another. When sexuality is elevated beyond its design, it does not just become sinful. It becomes religious. It takes on the character of devotion, community, symbol, and celebration. The sharp word of Jesus to the church in Pergamum is not directed at the pagan city around them. It is directed at the people who bear his name. The Apostle Paul writes in Ephesians that among followers of Jesus, there must not even be a hint of sexual immorality. That is a high standard. It is also a gracious one, because Jesus did not simply command it from a distance. He lived it. He died for every failure to meet it. He rose so that a new kind of life is actually possible.
Faithful Unto Death: What the Suffering Church of Smyrna Says to Us Today
The voice of a Savior who looks at a people being crushed and says: I know. That word matters. Jesus identifies himself to this church as "the first and the last, who died and came to life" (Revelation 2:8). This is not an abstract theological title. It is a direct, personal word to people who are watching their possessions be seized, their reputations be destroyed, and their lives be threatened. Jesus is saying: I am eternal, I have been where you are going, and I have come out the other side.
