When David received news of Saul's death, he didn't celebrate. He wept. In this final message of our Watching the Throne series, Pastor Josh walks us through 2 Samuel 1, a passage about grief, lament, and what it looks like to honor someone well in the middle of loss. This week, that passage hit close to home. Cross & Anchor is grieving the loss of Nathan Richards, a beloved member of our church family, and only God could have orchestrated the timing of a message like this for a moment like this. From David's example, we unpack three things: understanding the weight of the moment you're in, being real with God instead of putting on a show, and learning the lost art of lament. Grief is unavoidable. But lament is a choice — and it's one the church desperately needs to reclaim. Jesus was a man of sorrows, acquainted with grief. That means we don't have to choose between sorrow and hope. In Christ, we get the full weight of both. Weeping may last for the night. But joy comes in the morning.

What kind of legacy are you leaving behind? In this Father's Day message, we take an honest look at the life of Saul and the sobering reality that our choices affect far more than just ourselves. But this isn't a message about guilt. It's about hope. Because no matter how many mistakes you've made or moments you wish you could take back, your story isn't over. God specializes in taking broken things and making them beautiful. In this episode, we unpack four practical ways to start building a legacy of faith for the people you love most, and why it's never too late to begin. Whether you're a parent, a grandparent, or just someone who wants their life to count for something, this one is for you.

In this message from John 13 we see Jesus washing the disciples feet and setting example for all of us to follow. If service is beneath you than leadership is beyond you.

In the final installment of "Posture" we look at what worship truly is and isn't. We see that worship can't be categorised as a type of music and is truly a posture of our heart.

We take a turn in our series to examine the posture of worship and what it looks like to truly worship in Spirit and Truth as Jesus tells us to in John 4.

In this message from guest speaker JR Nunez, we look at the practice of prayer and how we can grow in our prayer lives personally, corporately, and with intercession.

In this special message Pastor Doug talks to us how to be transformed by the Gospel and what it means to implement some practical things to become better disciples of Jesus.

In this message from Luke 2 we see Jesus at the temple as a little boy and how his parents lost him! Whoops! Through this story we see how easy it is for us to misplace Jesus and where we can find Him again : At His Father's House!

In this message from John 21 we see the story of Peter being given a second chance after his massive failure. Through Peter's example we can have hope that we too can begin again.

In this message we explore how to begin everything with God and what to do with our trauma. Jesus gives us a blueprint of what to do with our trauma. We learn that we can label our trauma but we don't have to let our trauma label us.

In this episode we begin a new series! How do you begin again? As we start a new year we are looking for ways to have a fresh beginning. In Gen. 6-9 we see at a time where the entire earth began again. The story of Noah and the flood gives us a glimpse into how God starts something fresh and in wrath He remembers mercy, The rainbow is a sign that we can all begin again.

In this continuation of the Good News in The Neighborhood series we examine the Gospel and how it must go to the nations since Jesus is the light of the WORLD.

In this introduction to our series "Good News in the Neighbourhood" Pastor Mat dives into John 1:14 and shows how Jesus moved into the nieghborhood and how we can bring the Gospel to our neighborhoods

In this special message Pastor Josh shares the vision for what's ahead at Cross & Anchor Church.

In this message from 1 Cor. 8, Nate continues our Faith & Finances series and shows a very practical way to grow in our generosity one level at a time.
