Planning to Get Married?
Are you thinking about getting married? Marriage is an important step in life. Crossroads offers a six session course in spring 2014 to help you develop strong foundations for a lasting marriage. If your wedding date is before that, there is also an chance to self-study. The course covers topics such as expressing feelings and learning to listen, the importance of commitment, resolving conflict and enjoying sex. You will also meet with a mentoring couple to discuss what you experience together.
Dig Deeper with our OpenU Courses
This Spring, many OpenU courses are about to start. Have you chosen one yet? OpenU is your opportunity to get (more) equipped and to learn about God, the Bible, faith and Christian life in general.
We are excited about this great line-up of courses in multiple categories. Some are starting this February, other in the months to come. Just to give you a peek, in the next few weeks, the following courses are kicking off:
Kairos Course
Crossroads is happy to announce that this May we will host the Kairos Course, an intensive seven-session study at the YWAM base. The Kairos Course, now in 45 countries and 20 languages, is an interactive study of the purpose and plan of God from Genesis to the end of the age. But it is more than a course—it’s a journey with God!
Seminars on the Old Testament
Reading the Bible can be one of the most rewarding and refreshing things of our faith experience. But because the words of Scripture have been written thousands of years ago, in another time and culture, it can also be quite a challenge and raise difficult questions, especially when reading the Old Testament. If you would like a better understanding of God's salvation story in the Old Testament, join us as we dig deep into these ancient books of Scripture. During the course of three seminars during the second and third service, once each month, we will examine the big picture of the Old Testament in its ancient Hebrew shape of the Law (Torah), Prophets (Nevi'im), and Ketuvim (Writings)
Dynamite Prayers
In his letters to the young churches, the apostle Paul bursts into prayer every now and then. You will find that his prayers are dynamite prayers, praying for the things that are really important for the believers then, but equally important for us now: timeless, informative, brim-full and only including what's really relevant!
