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!

The Fate of the Union, Part 1
Daniel 4:1-37 | Mon, Feb 01, 2010 | Pastor John Stillman

In Daniel 4, Nebuchadnezzar gets a clear vision of his pride that literally brings him to his knees. In this message Pastor John shares three attitudes of pride that God wants us to see and correct in our own lives.

Tough Choices in Tough Times
Daniel 3:1-30 | Mon, Jan 25, 2010 | Pastor John Stillman

Scripture says that in the end times the antichrist will attempt to establish a world-wide religion as a sign of his control. The same thing happened in Nebuchadnezzar’s Babylon in the 6th century B.C. In this message, Pastor John shares how the gospel has the power to save us from life’s trials.

Help! I need to hear from you, God!
Daniel 2:1-49 | Mon, Jan 18, 2010 | Pastor John Stillman

Sometimes, it may feel like your very life depends on hearing from the Lord. This was the situation that Daniel faced when the king demanded to know the meaning of his dream of the future kingdoms of the world. In this message, Pastor John shares how prayer is our way of communicating with the ruler of history and the revealer of mysteries.

Welcome to Your Future!
Daniel 1:1-21 | Mon, Jan 11, 2010 | Pastor John Stillman

This time every year, there are a host of predictions of what the coming year will be like. This time of year also sees us making a number of resolutions about how we will live and change our lives in the coming year. This is what Daniel is all about – there are predictions of the future and there is resolve to live in a way that honors God in light of those predictions. In this message, Pastor John shares how, as a teenager, Daniel chose to live with character not just because of what God had done in the past, but because of what he knew God was going to do in the future.

No Junk For Jesus
Matthew 26:6-15 | Sun, Jan 03, 2010 | Pastor Ken Schultz

In this week’s message "No Junk for Jesus," Pastor Ken encourages the Church to give the best themselves to God in 2010. We are to pour out our lives for the one who poured our His life for us. That worshiping at Jesus feet is our primary Joy and what gives us the strength to Love our neighbors.

Prodigal
Luke 15:11-31 | Sun, Dec 27, 2009 | Pastor Ken Schultz

Do you believe God is grumpy and ready to whack you instantly when you do wrong? That is not the God of the bible. The God we serve is patient and loving. He is slow to anger and quick to bless. This message by Pastor Ken is from Luke chapter 15 which tells of God who is searching to restore that which is lost and is lavish with love towards his sons and daughters that rebel and repent.

I'll be home for Christmas

Christmas is a day or two away from the normal grind and activities, but after the tree has been taken down and the lights are turned off, what will you have?

Christmas Comforter
Matthew 2:7-8 | Mon, Dec 14, 2009 | Pastor John Stillman

Suffering is a common, everyday kind of condition, but one that seems even more acute at Christmas when we’re supposed to be having happy times, parties, fun, and family. In this message, Pastor John shares how suffering is connected to Christmas and how Jesus is our Christmas Comforter.

Follow Jesus By Giving
