God has called His people to a different kind of life than the world. The Apostle Peter tells us throughout 1 Peter, that we are foreigners living in a world that is not our home. How do you look at trials differently than the world looks at trials? We all face terrible things in our lives, but as followers of Jesus, we are called to respond differently. How is your faith being proved genuine?

Crossroads, 10 Year Celebration Service

07 Aug

Pastor Reid Olson of Crossroads Church of Greeley teaches on where our church has come from over the past 10 years.

We were planted from Crossroads Loveland in 2008, and now have marked our 10 years of gathering together. This service is a bit of history for our church gatherings, locations, ministers, and volunteers over the past decade. We love what God is doing in and through us, and we can’t wait for the next 10 years together. Praise the Lord for His faithful work.

When You Can’t Control The Future

17 Jul

Pastor Reid Olson of Crossroads Church of Greeley teaches on Genesis 12 when Abram was called to leave his country, his people and his father’s household.

Do you struggle with trying to determine the future, so you can make all the right choices? I do too. I know what it’s like to want to know the outcome before the beginning. I imagine some of you feel stuck when you can’t tell what’s right ahead. God calls us to trust Him more than trust our own instinct. There’s a reason Jesus calls disciples to follow him. He knows where he’s going, and better yet, he knows where to lead us where we are going. You’re going to want to listen to this one twice. Sometimes we need to heed God’s wisdom in the direction of our life, rather than make all of our own decisions.

You Can’t Keep People Pleasing

03 Jul

Pastor Reid Olson of Crossroads Church of Greeley teaches on the irrational thought of people pleasing.

We get ourselves into a trap of pleasing others, which eventually makes us compromise our integrity, or sell out, or miss the goals we want to achieve. It’s easy to become a people pleaser if we remain obsessed with what people think about us. But when we embrace the identity that God gives us in Christ, we can live into the beloved child of God that He created. You choose. Keep people pleasing and feel empty, or be a God-pleaser and feel complete.

Missionary God; The Battle of Kingdoms

19 Dec

Pastor Reid Olson of Crossroads Church of Greeley teaches on Matthew 2.

Like King Herod, at the birth of Jesus, we resist the Kingdom of God breaking into our world. Sometimes people forget that God doesn’t come into our world like a tyrant and terrorist, but rather God comes near as a offering of peace, like a little child. God’s Kingdom is breaking into this dark world to take over your kingdom of selfishness and pride. Is it possible that we act like King Herod in our resistance to God’s Kingdom also? We need to be like the wisemen who came seeking proximity to Jesus, bringing gifts of worship to the Savior. We all, like King Herod, have gone astray, but God has come for us like only the Missionary God can.

Choose LIFE, or DEATH; You Decide

28 Sep

Pastor Reid Olson, of Crossroads Church of Greeley, teaches on Acts 5.

LIGHTHOUSE When the Spirit of God acts in a way that seems contrary to our human expectations, does the character of God come into question? Humanity has seemed to lose respect for God’s perfect holiness. We have the option to choose life, or choose death. When Peter & John were imprisoned for preaching, an angel of the Lord released them from prison only to tell them to continue to preach about this new life. Death on the front end of Acts 5, and new life at the closing. Which will you choose? Choose life, there is more blessing that way.
