About Crosswinds

Crosswinds Church is a Christ-Centered community in Plainfield Illinois, located at the corner of Route 59 & 143rd Street. It is a place where you can discover who God is and live out your faith in uplifting and practical ways. We believe the Bible teaches that we don’t come to church but that we are the church, so we teach our members to have an impact on their families, workplaces, schools, community, and beyond. The church was started by ordinary people who God has used to do great things to show love and kindness in Plainfield, our county, our region, our state, and other countries..

Our goal is not just for you to come and visit us but for you to take what you learn about God at Crosswinds and share that with someone else to encourage them on their journey. God has a wonderful design for our lives, but life can be hard and we live in a broken world. We all need help and encouragement on our journey, so we seek to give people practical tools. These tools not only help them find peace and joy in their everyday lives, but help others to do the same. We are not perfect. The Bible says no one but Jesus is perfect, but we hope you will come and grow with us. We hope you will help us to make our lives and the lives of others better by discovering the hope that is found in Jesus Christ!

1 Corinthians 1:10-13 | Sun, Oct 25, 2015 | Pastor John Stillman

There's all sorts of variety in Jesus' church, and sometimes it's not clear if those differences are good, bad, or biblical. In this message, Pastor John helps us diagnose the differences and understand how to show love to brothers in different churches with a three-part prescription.

1 Timothy 2:8-15 | Sun, Oct 18, 2015 | Pastor John Stillman

The world has been training you to think wrongly about gender and sexuality, but we are called to bring our thinking and our doing and our identity into line with Scripture. In this message, Pastor John looks at the apostle Paul's instruction to the church to show us how very different - and freeing and affirming - the Christian vision is from the world's.

my #brotherinneed
James 2:1-16 | Sun, Oct 11, 2015 | Pastor John Stillman

The Bible paints a picture of the church where the gospel of Jesus is shared and needs are met in a way that people are drawn to Jesus and His community. In this message, Pastor John looks at James' letter to show us how to be that kind of church!

my #brotherfromanothermother
Ephesians 2:8-22 | Sat, Oct 03, 2015 | Pastor John Stillman

Racial division and racism come in many forms, but all are opposed to God's plan for humanity. In this message, Pastor John describes the work of Jesus in creating "one new man out of two" that calls us to strive for racial unity in the body of Christ.

#jesusismybrother
Hebrews 2:8-11 | Sun, Sep 27, 2015 | Pastor John Stillman

Is Jesus your brother? If He is, then that relationship impacts not only your relationship to God, but also your relationship to others.

#unsocialmedia
2 Corinthians 3 | Sun, Sep 20, 2015 | Pastor John Stillman

We have seen enough that divides us on our streets, on the news, and on social media. In this message, Pastor John looks at how believers with the message of the gospel are God's status update to the world.

Best Satisfaction
Matthew 12:1-12 | Sun, Sep 13, 2015 | Pastor Ken Schultz

Is the Sabbath a blessing to you or duty? In today’s message we learn that a Sabbath is not a Sabbath unless we find our “Best Satisfaction” in it. It is not about duty, but about enjoying the maximum pleasure in the universe, almighty God. Jesus, teach us today to find our rest and satisfaction in You because You are the Lord of the Sabbath.

Best Relationship
Matthew 10:28-39 | Sun, Sep 06, 2015 | Pastor Ken Schultz

The greatest temptation we all face is to fear man over God. In today's lesson, Jesus gives us some hard words to give us soft hearts to God, our best relationship.

Best Devotion
Luke 9:57-62 | Sun, Aug 30, 2015 | Pastor Ken Schultz

Are you a follower of Christ? What are the competing gods in your life? Many would claim to follow, but follow their own agenda. In today's message, Jesus helps us consider our best devotion as He shows us what it means to follow him.

Time for Action: From Insight to Outsight
John 7 | Sat, Aug 22, 2015 | Pastor John Stillman

Whose voice do you listen to? Whose voice moves you to action? In this message, we look at Jesus' open invitation to anyone in the sound of His voice to receive the soul-satisfying Living Water of eternal life, and pass it on to others.

Follow Jesus By Giving

We believe that the bible teaches us that giving should be regular, proportional, and sacrificial! Help us to help others by giving to the work of the gospel.
