“Faith” is one of those nice words you might see stitched into a pillow or on the class roll at a Christian school. We might think it has something to do with believing God or having nice thoughts. But what if we told you faith isn’t just reading the Bible and going “Nice! Thumbs up!“, but really comes down to believing something enough to move. This week, Alli Patterson shows why out of the whole city of Jericho, God chose Rahab the prostitute to be His servant.

It seems like in the Bible, miracles are happening all the time. Did they stop happening when they invented the Polaroid or something? What’s up with that?

Some of us feel like if we saw a miracle happen before our own eyes, we’d be the best believers of all time. Yet the Israelites saw the Red Sea part and were grumbling and complaining again three days later. Jump in to hear Brian Tome break down why growth, faith, and gratitude often starts with having a good memory.

It was too late for swimming lessons. When 2 million Israelites arrived at the edge of the Red Sea with all the might of Egypt nipping at their heels, it seemed like it was game over. But where there was a sea, God made a highway. Maybe you feel up against the Red Sea in your own life. That job you’ve been waiting on falls through, the bills keep coming when your money runs out, you get that diagnosis you weren’t expecting. In this message, Chuck Mingo shows us how God making a way isn’t just something He does every once in a while. It’s key to who He is.

Maybe you’ve heard about Daniel in the Lion’s Den from Sunday School. The moral of the story probably went something like this: if you’re nice and faithful, God will save you from all of your troubles and you’ll never have to deal with any difficulty and you can play with the nice kitties. But there’s actually so much more to the story. This week, Kyle Ranson unpacks how this story is not just how God saves us from danger, but actually invites us into MORE danger for the sake of our friends and neighbors.

We’ve all felt dry. There’s something about being stuck in the same job, same relationship (or lack thereof), or going back to the same old habits that can have your spiritual life feeling like a mouthful of saltines. This week, Brian Tome unpacks the story of Elijah’s showdown with the prophets of Baal and how it can show us how to stay faithful even when you’ve got spiritual cottonmouth.

We have a way God’s love looks in our heads: rainbows, puppies, and maybe even a gallon bucket of that one frappe from Starbucks. Yeah...that’s not quite what Jonah felt when he found himself stuck in the digestive track of a giant sea beast. But what if that’s the exact thing that Jonah needed to come back to God at that time? This week Alli Patterson shows us how God’s mercy is always chasing us, and God can and will use whatever it takes to bring us back to Him—even if it means becoming fish food.

“Are we there yet?” There’s a chance you’ve heard that (or said it) from the back of a minivan when you’re hours from your destination and there’s still another 400 miles until the next Buc-ees. When we’re waiting on your spouse, next promotion, or next vacation, life can feel the same way. So when life isn’t going our pace, how can we trust that God is still good?

This week, Kyle Ranson unpacks the story of the Israelites wandering for 40 years in the desert and shows how even when it feels like God is running late, He’s right on time. And even while we wait, He still gives us everything we need.

There’s a long list of things that can make you feel like you’re a “Bad Christian“. The swear word when you stub your toe. The glass of wine when the kids are in bed. Sometimes it’s just as simple as asking one too many questions. 

But what if asking questions didn’t mean you were far away from God? What if it’s just the doorway to know Him more? In a world that’s quick to hop into a all caps-lock online debate, Chuck Mingo shows us how it’s ok to come to God with our questions—and how Jesus will meet us there.

Reflections aren’t just for selfies or pre-date checkups. Sure, mirrors are great for fixing your hair… but what about that spiritual broccoli in your teeth? This week, Joel Firebaugh reminds us that faith isn’t about sitting still and feeling convicted, then going to Chipotle after service. It’s about getting up and doing something about it. When we recognize and repent, Jesus can redeem.

Whether or not you know it, you’re in a fight. But you weren’t thrown into the battlefield with barefoot and empty-handed. God gave us weapons to protect and to fight back the enemy. And when we team up with Jesus and the people around us, we don’t fight FOR victory. We get to fight FROM victory. Join Chuck Mingo as he breaks down the battle plans.

The Fight of Your Life | Don’t go into Battle Empty-Handed

The Fight of Your Life 

You might be breathing... but are you actually living?

Some days, it’s easier to scroll past, stay numb, and check out. That quiet voice saying, “Why bother?” That’s apathy. And it’s one of the enemy’s most effective weapons. Left unchecked, it will dull your heart, steal your purpose, and leave you to rot.

But Jesus offers something radically different. He promises a life that’s fully alive—a life filled with purpose, passion, and presence. Hannah Driskill walks us through how we can wake up, escape the walking dead, and live a life that is worth living.

When you’re gone, what will actually outlive you? It won’t be your job title, your achievements, or even how hard you worked to restore your 1978 Jeep Renegade. The truth is: your legacy isn’t built through success—it’s built through people.

In this powerful message, Brian Tome delivers a direct challenge to men everywhere: Fatherhood is a fight. And whether you’re a biological father, a father figure, or someone who’s never had kids, you are called to step in, show up, and build a legacy that truly lasts.

Your ego might be quietly wrecking your life—and you don’t even know it. This week, Alli Patterson breaks down the five secret, subtle moves that the enemy uses to get you to bring yourself up—and the five surprising counterattacks you can use to fight back and find true life. 

How to Fight Back

__Are you ready for the truth?__ You’re already in a spiritual battle — whether you realize it or not. The pain, confusion, and resistance you’re facing isn’t random. There’s a real Enemy working behind the scenes, plotting to exploit your weaknesses, steal your joy, and derail your purpose.
__He has a strategy. Do you?__
This week, Brian Tome exposes the spiritual reality many of us overlook and lays out a practical battle plan to help you recognize the attack, armor up, and fight back with confidence. It’s time to stop being hunted and start standing firm.

Christianity. Buddhism. Islam. Hinduism. They all seem to say the same thing, right? Be nice, don’t kill, don’t steal your neighbor’s Wi-Fi, you know the drill. But what if these aren’t just different paths up the same mountain?

What if one of them flips the mountain upside down?

In this message, Brian Tome unpacks why Christianity isn’t just another rulebook to reach God—it’s a radical invitation into relationship. One filled with grace, transformation, and the presence of the living God. And once you understand the difference, there’s no chance you stay the same. 

Are All Religions Basically the Same?

If you’ve been burned (or bored) by the Church, you’re not alone. The Church has certainly been responsible for some not-so-great stuff over the years. Sounds hard to believe, but there was a time when the Church was the world’s most powerful force for good. Hospitals, public education, and humanitarian aid—all born from the church.  The church isn’t just a building or an organization, it’s God’s Plan A to bless His people. Even Jesus said it would “do greater things” than even He did while on earth. Whoa. 

So how do we practically live that out? Brian Tome points us to the power we can have when start to move. 

Do We Still Need The Church?

Maybe you’ve seen those priceless paintings in a museum—then spotted the same image in the gift shop on a fridge magnet for $12. It might make you wonder: what’s legit, and what’s just a knockoff?

People ask the same thing about Jesus. Was He just a good teacher? Did He even exist? Is He a divine masterpiece—or a cleverly crafted forgery?

Join Kyle Ranson as we dive into the evidence, ancient manuscripts, and real-life stories that challenge what you might think you know. 

Jesus: Myth or Masterpiece?

“Truth” seems like it can be pretty subjective these days. Who can you trust? Who has the right sources? Is smooth peanut butter really better than chunky?

The Bible can be like a seatbelt. you don’t want to be spinning out in the middle of an intersection and think to yourself, “Wait, can I trust this thing??” This week, Chuck breaks down some of our biggest questions: Is the Bible reliable? Can you trust it with your life? What about all those contradictions? How do we know it hasn’t been corrupted?

Following Jesus doesn’t mean checking your brain at the door. We’re diving deep — intellectually and spiritually — into why God’s Word is still the sweetest, most life-giving truth you can build your life on. It’s not just legit. It’s the greatest love story ever told. Grab something sweet and watch along as Chuck Mingo breaks down how you can taste and see that the Lord is good.

We know Easter is the day you put on your most uncomfortable outfit, throw some perfectly good eggs out into the yard, and also there’s a bunny there for some reason…right? But what if we told you that Easter isn’t just an excuse to get dressed up like a highlighter, but a celebration of a real, historical event that changed human history?

Dive in as Brian Tome breaks down six of the most important reasons we have to believe that the story isn’t just a fairy tale, but a real part of human history that can change how we live today.

Easter

The wages of sin is death. And Jesus came to pay up. Good Friday is a grim reminder of what sin brings—death and destruction. The only way to pay for that is through a sacrifice. For centuries, that was with a perfect lamb, instituted at the first Passover.

Kyle Ranson shows us how through the sacrifice of Good Friday, just became not just a good sacrifice, but THE sacrifice. Friday was only Good because Sunday was coming.

Have you ever walked into the middle of a movie and had no clue what was going on? Sure, it’s cool when the Death Star explodes, but why did they even have to blow it up??? That’s what a lot of us do with Easter. We jump in at the climax without understanding the story that came before—and in doing that, we miss the meaning.

Palm Sunday: parades, palms, and a donkey. Cute. But let’s be honest—this day was never about waving branches. It’s about asking one uncomfortable question: Who’s actually calling the shots in your life? (Spoiler: it might not be who you think.)

Brian dives into the gritty side of Holy Week—what people hoped Jesus would be, what he actually was, and why most of the crowd bailed on him a few days later. Hint: He didn’t fit their agenda.
You’ll hear about cloaks, freedom, religious drama, and a woman who went from “God probably forgot me” to “I’m getting baptized right now.” It’s raw. It’s real. It might sting a little.
So yeah, if you’ve ever tried to get Jesus to cosign your plans, this one’s for you.
Hit play. Let it mess with you—in the best way.

Palm Sunday 2025

Palm Sunday

The Bible and Science. Cats and Dogs. LeBron and Steph. These have been enemies since the dawn of time….right? There seems to be an element of faith that means you have to check your brain at the door. Just ignore the facts, ignore those scary numbers, drink this delicious Kool-Aid and don’t worry about anything. But what if God calls you to something deeper than that? Kyle Ranson puts on his science teacher tie and walks us through how the Bible isn’t just anti-science, it’s full of God’s invitation to investigate His creation and see just how incredible it is. Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Is the Bible Anti-Science?

Should I do yoga? Play poker? Listen to Cardi B? We all ask questions that the Bible doesn’t seem to actually have an answer for (although if there’s a prophecy about Cardi B that we missed, please let us know). People in Jesus’ time wrestled with similar questions, but when they asked Jesus, He asked them questions that forced them to go deeper. We want a black and white answer, but the truth is God often shows up to meet us in the gray area. So how do we navigate that? Alli Patterson gives us a framework on how to do just that. 

If I follow Jesus, should I ________?

Can a Christian get tattoos? What about smoke? Drink? These are all important questions, but it doesn’t matter nearly as much as the deeper question: does it matter what we do with our body? Aren’t we all just meat bags that need to be filled with Taco Bell sometimes until we go to heaven? (Ok, maybe we shouldn’t put the terms “meat bags” and “Taco Bell” in the same sentence). Brian Tome dives into what we do with our body—and why it might matter way more than we think. 

Does What I Do With My Body Matter?

Last weekend at Crossroads East Side got crazy when the internet went out right before the streamed video message was supposed to play at the 9:15am service. Lena, the Community Pastor at East Side, prayed God would deliver a message anyway and right as she said "amen" to her relief Kyle walked onstage to deliver an off-the-cuff message on prayer. Ever wonder what a Crossroads pastor's message would look like with 30 seconds of heads up? Watch to find out. 

IMPROMPTU message from Kyle

We’ve all been there. You’ve prayed the same thing over and over again, but nothing seems to happen, no matter what you do. After a while, you have to wonder: What’s going on, am I not holy enough or something? Is there some invisible 7'3" NBA center shot blocking these? Or worse: does God even know or care about me? If you’ve ever felt that way, you’re not alone.

So what do we do when we feel like that? And is there even a way to start to get more “yeses”? Join Brian Tome as he breaks down the method of prayer taught by the greatest to ever do it: Jesus Himself. Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati.

Your phone is a fork. You might be wondering, “When did I download the Fork app?“. Good news, it’s not a premium subscription. But your phone DOES dictate how and what you consume. And for a lot of us, that’s comparison, fear, and distraction. Your enemy has one job: to keep you distracted and asleep so you don’t do anything. This week, Kyle Ranson shows us how we can use our phones like they’re meant to be used, and start feeding ourselves something with real nutrition. You can’t change the world if you don’t have good fuel.

How Jesus Offers Us Direction and Belonging

Everyone deals with feeling alone or vulnerable on some level. Yet, vulnerability in the Bible is depicted not as a fault or a weakness, but as a means by which we can develop and strengthen our relationship with God. We see this through stories of orphans and widows in the Bible – particularly in the book of Ruth. People who have not only lost their loved ones, but their name.
