Note One: New Church 6-2-10
The doing of religion is the most powerful narcotic there is. On July 11, we will be launching Cross Chapel where the focus will not be on us but on Christ and Him Crucified. The doing should follow the believing.... We focus on His Sacrifice, not ours. I truly hope to see you at Cross Chapel.
It
costs something to be associated with the message of the Cross.
Organized religion hates it because it allows Jesus to be the Head of
His church. Do not be afraid to COME ALL THE WAY OUT OF RELIGION AND
EMBRACE THIS MESSAGE ALL THE WAY. You may be ridiculed by those where
you have associated but that is the price of truth.
To
my friends in the TC Mich area... July 11 we will begin holding Sunday
eve services; preaching and teaching the Message of the Cross... If you
are tired of bondage to religion and defeat in your life, come checkout
this new church on Sunday evenings..
On July 11,2010 Angie and I, at the direction of the Lord will begin holding Sunday eve, services in Traverse City, Mi. Cross Chapel will become the official voice and sending church for All of Acts 26:18 Ministries outreaches that, at the present reach around the world.
Of course, as soon as we experience a little growth we plan to add a Sunday Morning and mid-week service.
The sad truth in the modern church is that in spite of all its glitter and gold, most do not preach the message of the cross and sadly, most are populated with sincere believers who love Jesus but are trapped in bondage to one thing or another. The answer to this, of course is the message of the cross, which will be the focus of this church. This church will not just be another church on the corner nor will it be a place where displaced ministers can come in order to have a place to preach;(it will be a long time before I will invite any guest speakers and fill in speakers will only be allowed IF they understand and preach the FULL message of the cross). I really hope to get the first guest speakers from JSM and that will take growth and time.
I do encourage ministers who have been preaching the message of the cross for salvation AND sanctification to come to the services and build relationship. Over time, the Lord may raise some up to have a role in Acts 26:18 Ministries and Cross Chapel.
At the start, we will not have any social programs at all as we will need all our funds and focus to be on the preaching and teaching of the Word. I hope to eventually add a food pantry outreach and jail ministry.But that will be a while down the road. ALL our efforts will center around proclaiming, teaching,and protecting this great Gospel of Jesus Christ; the message of the cross.
I also hope to have a youth ministry in the future, patterned after CrossFire in Baton Rouge.
Some parts of the services will be taped for tv so it will be imperative for parents to restrain their children from running around during service. Proper respect for the house of God will be observed at all times. No food will be allowed during service but people may bring in a bottle of water and baby bottles for the infants. We do not have alot of rules, just good ole fashioned common sense that will make the organization run smoother.
I will be starting an actual message board on FB as well as a seperate website for Cross Chapel at some point in the future. AGAIN, allow me to emphasize that our whole focus is the message of the Cross. We are not fancy; just down to earth Christians who want to lift up Jesus and proclaim the truth.
As to the music, we will be using CD and DVD for now with a few specials as the Lord brings the people in. If you sing and or play, I want to meet with you.... Angie is working on the DVDs right now, putting words to the music tracks so that we can hopefully show them on a screen.
I will be bringing you more info as it develops... I hope to see you at Cross Chapel where, its not about us, ITs ALL ABOUT JESUS... And we trust HIS sacrifice not ours.. THE MESSAGE OF THE CROSS....
We will be having testimony time during each service for those who wish to testify. Also, at the end of select services, I will be doing a Question and Answer session immeadiately after the service.
