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!

Are you mourning?
Luke 23:26-31 | Sun, May 18, 2025 | Pastor Ken Schultz

Are you listening?
Luke 23:18-25 | Sun, May 11, 2025 | Pastor Ken Schultz

"Are You Listening?" explores the importance of spiritual listening—hearing not just with our ears, but with our hearts. Using Luke 23 and the silence of Jesus before His crucifixion, we reflect on how God's voice often becomes clearest when we quiet our own.

Innocent Condemned & Guilty Freed
Luke 23:1-16 | Sun, May 04, 2025 | Pastor Ken Schultz
