Inward reflection, outward focus!👫🌎❤️
Denying ourselves in fasting produced deep moments with God. We get to know Him so much more intimately during those times. With that comes an awareness that God didn’t redeem us to leave us just as we are.
Philippians 2:5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
Sounds impossible! Truly, in our human strength, it is impossible to think like Jesus, but He never called us to something He wasn’t capable of doing in us.
Matthew 16:24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
Denying ourselves. That’s a Jesus thought. Taking up our cross and following Him and forgiving people who don’t deserve it, that’s exactly what Jesus did for us.
How does God want you personally to show Him to your family, friends, neighbors, or coworkers? Many times it looks like a sacrifice of time, energy, and even our resources, but whatever God calls you to do. Do it!
Live out His mission for you. It’s the best. Most likely, His mission for you will lead you to worship with your church family this Sunday, and we cannot wait! God has been doing something very special at Crosspoint. We don’t want to miss out on any of it!
We want you to feel comfortable coming in person if you feel God leading you to do so, and we have BIG NEWS! They installed a germicidal, ultraviolet air purifier for the sanctuary to enhance the protective measures we are already taking.🥳

Wednesday...
Need God’s help with your finances? Growth Groups for the next two Wednesdays are all on Zoom. This week, we wrap things up with the fourth and final lesson in a series on Faith and Finances. Even if you haven't made it to any of the past weeks, you can pick up with this one and be blessed.
We have the privilege of having a pro in this subject teach us. Tim Rosen heads up Faith and Finances Ministry and provides Christ-focused financial teaching and instruction. The best part is that he doesn’t just teach it. He lives out. Join us each Wednesday on Zoom at 7:00 pm.

Important stuff 😉:
- Who are you going to bless this week? Reach out to one another via text, call, or FaceTime, and get together with an individual to share Christ’s love (Christian or non-Christian). 😊 Satan would love to divide people during this time. Be careful to be looking out for others and sharing Jesus with people who don’t know Him.
- Let us know if you or someone you know has a need.🙏
- Let’s remember to give financially through our tithes and offerings so the work of the church can continue. You can give online @ crosspoint.la or through the app. If you would prefer to text your monetary gift, simply text GIVE to (424) 343-2378. You can also mail checks to:
Crosspoint Baptist Church
