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!

A Heart Transformed by Hope
Matthew 15:1-20 | Mon, Mar 21, 2011 | Pastor John Stillman

In this passage, Jesus gets to the root cause of sin and separation from God and our failure to worship. Our external actions and the words we say and the way we feel are ultimately rooted in the human heart. And when the heart is corrupted, it is far from the heart’s Creator. To worship properly what we need is a heart transformed by hope – by King Jesus.

Hope for the Despised and Rejected
Matthew 13:54-14:12 | Sun, Mar 13, 2011 | Pastor John Stillman

Jesus is the King of the Nations. Yet, unlike the dictators and despots of the world, Jesus is a different kind of king. He has all authority, but He is completely humble. He is forceful and challenging, but He is gentle. He is the rightful King, but He is rejected. In today’s message, we’ll see why people reject King Jesus, and how do we respond when that rejection falls on us.

Fear'n The Green
Luke 12:13-21 | Mon, Mar 07, 2011 | Pastor Ken Schultz

In today’s message in Luke 12:13-21 Jesus teach us to be rich toward God or suffer a total loss because everything in this life is just kindling compared to God’s eternal treasures. It is God’s pleasure to share His treasure with us if we find our life in Him and not our possessions.

The Joy of the Kingdom
Matthew 13:44-52 | Mon, Feb 28, 2011 | Pastor John Stillman

A life focused on the pursuit of the kingdom brings joy. Joy in this life, and joy for all eternity. It’s the joy of having the deepest desire and need of your life fulfilled.

The Kingdom in the World
Matthew 13:24-43 | Mon, Feb 21, 2011 | Pastor John Stillman

The kingdom of God coexists in the world today with the kingdom of Satan, sin, and separation from God. In the Parable of the Weeds, Jesus introduces us to the Anti-Mission of our enemy, Satan, and how Jesus’ servants support the Mission of the Kingdom.

Response to the Kingdom
Matthew 13:1-23 | Mon, Feb 14, 2011 | Pastor John Stillman

The world is filled with four kinds of Christians. But Jesus is only interested in one kind – normal Christians. In this message, Pastor John explains Jesus’ Parable of the Sower and what it says about normal Christianity.

Real Strong
Matthew 12:22-32 | Mon, Jan 31, 2011 | Pastor John Stillman

Satan and sin are real and affect our lives daily. In this message, Pastor John shares some of the ways in which we are vulnerable to Satan’s attacks and how we can avoid the eternal effect of sin through putting our faith in Jesus.
