Faith That Saves You; Noah

26 Sep

Pastor Reid Olson of Crossroads Church of Greeley teaches on Hebrews 11.

Noahs_ark

The life of Noah is not necessarily one to emulate. He lived during a very awful period in time. Can you imagine everyone living to only please themselves? Can you imagine a time of extreme violence and depravity that would cause God to have a grieving heart? We live in a difficult time today too, so what is the solution? Do we need to all go out and work for our salvation? NO, not a chance. Jesus did the work for us. Jesus died so we could be saved. We need to obey the call of God the Father, and work a little bit with our faith, so that God’s blessing on his people might come through our obedience. Join us as we continue to look at characters of the faith in Hebrews 11.

Sharing Your Faith Without Being A Jerk

24 May

Pastor Reid Olson of Crossroads Church of Greeley teaches on Luke 10.

share

Jesus sends out the 72 followers to go and prepare the cities for his entrance, ahead of him. He tells them to go in peace and eat whatever is set before them. I like this kind of evangelism. Jesus isn’t mean about sharing the Kingdom of God, he sends it out with kindness and peace. How do you share your faith in Jesus? Are you a jerk about it? Do you have to convert people to the faith and make it all about “you”, or can you let the Spirit of God do the work? Listen with us at Crossroads as we practice sharing faith as a spiritual discipline.

Quit Making Excuses

01 Aug

Pastor Reid Olson of Crossroads Church of Greeley teaches on quitting.

quit_work copy

Quit making excuses about things in your life that are too difficult to accomplish, or too challenge to take on. You don’t need to keep making excuses, because no one cares how good your excuses are. Jesus tells a story in Luke 14 where people give excuses instead of coming to the Master’s banquet. He is saying that our excuses have no place in the Kingdom of God. In order to grow in faith, we need to quit making excuses.

Debunking Some Myths About Sin

25 Jul

Pastor Reid Olson of Crossroads Church of Greeley teaches on 1 John 1:8-10.

Urban LegendsWhen it comes to admitting our sin, we shy away. Most often we come up with excuses about sin, and say things like, “I”m not really a bad person”, or “If no one knows, I can get away with it”, or even “I’ve already sinned, I might as well continue”. When we “excuse” our way out of sin, we end up never needing the Savior to forgive us. “If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.” Don’t be deceived, sin is an all-consuming toxic sickness in our lives, and God has given us the remedy through salvation in Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit of God is the only one who can purify you from unrighteousness. The process of this is through our repentance of sins.

God Allows More Than You Can Handle

20 Jul

Pastor Reid Olson of Crossroads Church of Greeley teaches on Urban Legends.

Urban Legends

God will often allow you to have more than you can handle. Why do people die unexpectedly? Why do we have so many with cancer? Why is there so much pain in the world, right now? God is shaping those who have faith to be like Christ. Stop saying, “God won’t give you more than you can handle.” We debunk the myths of spirituality here at Crossroads. Pay attention, so you don’t end up saying the wrong thing to people who are suffering through pain.

Battling With The Dark Side

18 May

Pastor Reid Olson of Crossroads Church of Greeley teaches on demonic warfare and dealing with demons.

dark-side

Don’t take this one on alone. You need God’s spiritual authority to defeat the enemy. Many people don’t believe the devil and his demons even exist, but the Scriptures clearly teach that evil was cast out of people, Jesus came to defeat the power of death and Satan, and we can be free from the dominion of darkness. Join us to find out how demons work, what they do, and how to stand victorious in Jesus Christ.

Identity Theft; “I Can’t Really Change”

17 Mar

Pastor Reid Olson of Crossroads Church of Greeley teaches on 2 Corinthians 10:2-5.

ID_theft_can't change

Strongholds in life are real. Many people face financial strongholds, relationship strongholds, mental strongholds, even physical strongholds. So many things take our identity and toss it to the curb. The devil is out to get us to believe a lie and say that we are stuck in our ways. God says we have divine powers to demolish strongholds in life. Join us for this biblical look at freedom.
