Cross Point Church Audio Podcast

We all have potholes in our life stories, markings of long-ago emotional pain caused by the hurtful words, behaviors of others or perhaps the etchings of shame from decades-old sin. By nature, these potholes are below the surface, so they often go unnoticed, but their existence means that problems are likely to arise. When our […]

In medieval times, map makers would mark any area that was uncertain or uncharted with three words; Here Be Dragons. Years later, things have not changed; we don’t have dragons on maps, but our fear over the unknown remains.  Does it ever feel like God is delayed? Do we grow frustrated when things don’t happen […]

We don’t have dragons on maps, as the ancient world had, but we do have dragons in our minds when God is trying to lead us into new territory in our lives – especially when we’ve been mistreated along the way.  In order to overcome the fear and uncertainty that we can encounter on the […]

Navigating uncertainty sometimes comes in the form of transition or tragedy. In these moments, we can tend to get paralyzed, and it starts with our identity. When our identity is broken from divorce, loss, failures, addiction or other life-shattering moments, where do we find hope? Having faith is a good start on the path to […]

In this bonus episode we hear from Pastor Kevin Queen as we celebrate his six year anniversary at Cross Point and in Nashville. When Kevin started at Cross Point he sat down with Annie F. Downs on her podcast, That Sounds Fun, where he detailed the process of his transition to Cross Point and how […]

When we encounter uncertainty in our lives, our gut reaction is fear. When we are scared, we tend to cope with control or addiction.  When life goes off the map, the new territory God has for our lives can only be reached with trust and faith in Him. In this message, Pastor Kevin unpacks the […]

People hurt us, they betray us, they cheat us and they fail us. We are also those people – we make mistakes, hurt others, cause pain, and yet, God’s grace still flows. We will never be asked to give more grace than we have already received. What we have been forgiven of is greater than any […]

We make choices every day. In some of these choices, we choose our own will over God’s will, and it leaves us feeling broken, desperate and alone. Even for people who consider themselves believers, sin has a way of showing up through our choices and causing damage. What’s true about the parable of the lost […]

In week five of Storytellers, Dickson Campus Pastor James Savage discusses that as humans we’re hardwired for story. Why? The answer is simple: because God’s a storyteller. In this episode, we explore the Parable of the Friend At Midnight and hear a story from Cross Point attendee Maleah Stevens about praying bold prayers.

Does the world seem a broken place? Does the news and your social media feed fill you with more dread than joy? If things feel dark, if your life needs light – it’s accessible through the person of Jesus. Alongside this promise and hope comes a obligation for the followers of Christ. The church brings […]

In this episode, Dickson Campus Pastor James Savage unpacks the parable of the lost coin and we hear […]

We tend to fit Jesus into our lives with the expectation of Him as a moral teacher, political mascot, culture warrior or self-help coach. All of these ideas have some truth of Jesus in them, yet all of these ideas fall short of who Jesus has revealed Himself to me and what He said He […]
