This video messed me up. I’m completely guilty of some of the things address in this video and it causes me to tremble.

I’m going to be straight up honest with you. I’m not a big fan of museum’s. I’ll just go ahead and say that they bore me. I mean, honestly, a museum has one ultimate purpose, at least as far as I can see, is to tell you all about what has happened and northing, or very little, about what is to come.

It’s a horrifying commentary that many of our churches today are becoming glorified museums instead of living breathing extensions of the Kingdom of God. And though we may in our pride think that any of us are immune to museum syndrome, the truth is, even Crossroads can fall prey to become a testament to what has be done. Instead, we have the option to become a beacon of hope and light. A sign of life in a very dead atmosphere.

But ultimately the question is, what are you willing to do to not become a museum?

This Sunday begins a journey for the people of Crossroads Church, and prayerfully the people of this community as well.

We are tired of the common place Christian life.

We are tired of our complacency.

We are tired of this so called American version of Christianity that amounts to nothing more than going to church on Sunday morning.

We are calling upon God to stir our hearts and souls in a fresh to way. To light us on fire for His gospel and Kingdom. To fill us with passion for those who are far from Him, and challenge to take bold steps of faith in our relationship with him.

I, for one, am anxious to see God revealed in my life in a way I have never seen Him before.

Will you join us? Check out the Project Awaken website for more information.

So, August 29th is right around the corner. With it, prayerfully, comes a movement bent on changing the people of God and transforming this community. (more on that to come)

I have one question though…

If you could meet one need in your community, what would it be?
