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!

When you've been waiting a long time, Jesus is enough.
Luke 2:25-35 | Fri, Dec 23, 2016 | Pastor John Stillman

Waiting can be one of the most irritating experiences we face, and no day exemplifies waiting perhaps more than Christmas. In today's message from Luke 2, Pastor John looks at the brief story of a man named Simeon who's life teaches us some important truths of how to process waiting, and the dawning realization that Jesus is enough.

When you're looking for answers, Jesus is enough
Matthew 2:1-12 | Sun, Dec 18, 2016 | Pastor John Stillman

Google and other online search engines process nearly 100,000 searches per second every day! Remarkably, upwards of 20% of all those searches are questions that have never been asked before. So, we're not just asking the same old questions, but new questions are coming up. In this message, Pastor John looks at the story of the magi's visit to Bethlehem to help us understand how to find the answers to life's most important question.

When God messes up your plans, Jesus is enough
Matthew 1:18-25 | Sun, Dec 11, 2016 | Pastor John Stillman

What do you say when God messes up your plans? The Christmas story is about God invading earth and messing up the plans of some pretty good people. In this message, Pastor John looks at Joseph's story to help us see that when God messes up your plans, Jesus is enough.

When you feel too young or inexperienced, Jesus is enough.
Luke 1:26-38 | Sat, Dec 03, 2016 | Pastor John Stillman

God has never made anything without a purpose, and yet sometimes we feel incapable of fulfilling the purpose for which He made us. In this message, Pastor John looks at God's message to a young teenage girl named Mary. She might have felt too young and inexperienced to fulfill God's purpose, except that she believed Jesus was enough.

When your best isn't good enough, Jesus is enough
Galatians 4:1-7 | Sat, Nov 26, 2016 | Pastor John Stillman

Christmas is a holiday that, according to statistics, makes 72% of the population cranky! Maybe that isn't quite true, but there are many things about the holiday season, and life in general, that cause many to feel inadequate, that their best efforts just aren't good enough. In this message, Pastor John explores three reasons why we can be hopeful that when our best isn't good enough, Jesus is enough.

Blind Spot Pt. 2
John 9:1-41 | Fri, Nov 25, 2016 | Pastor Ken Schultz

Are you a bird dog or a life guard? Today Jesus, through the eyes of a blind beggar, will help us to see clearly our role as His disciples when we depend on Him to give us eyes to see the suffering of others.

Blind Spot
Matthew 7:1-6 | Sun, Nov 13, 2016 | Pastor Ken Schultz

Do you have blind spots? We all have physical blind spots, but we also have spiritual blind spots. Those blind spots can make others run off the road with us relationally. Jesus teaches us in Matthew 7:1-6 how to deal with spiritual blind spots. In these turbulent times, following His direction can help us be effective and not hurtful as we bring the gospel to others.

Honor the Emperor. Praise the King
| Sun, Nov 06, 2016

As we approach the 2016 election and life afterwards, followers of Christ may wonder what they should do. In this message, Pastor John looks at what the Bible says about Christian Citizenship in a world that has practically ruled Christ out of our lives.

Distinctively Free: Letting go of Legalism
Acts 15:1-11 | Sun, Oct 30, 2016 | Pastor John Stillman

In the history of the church there have been many instances of reform. In this message by Pastor John, we look at the first area of reform in the church - letting go of legalism - and discover three practices that will sustain us as reformers in the church and in our own lives.

Distinctively Free: Waging War Against Sin
1 Peter 2:11 | Sun, Oct 23, 2016 | Pastor John Stillman

As we prepare to enter the 500th year of the Reformation, we will spend two weekends looking at personal and corporate reformation within the church. In this message, we will look at how to do battle with sin that wages war against the soul.

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.
