Reviews
"Vibrant, warm, caring Christian community. Dynamic preaching challenges members to lovingly serve God, each other and community, live in close, caring harmony with nature, seek equal justice for ALL and respect ALL of God's special creation and life. Welcoming, friendly, approachable membership. In house and hybrid Zoom service access available. The current congregation membership spans the world. Currently, Crossroads members are deeply involved in outreach endeavors with the Waianae Assembly of God church to serve communities along the Waianae Coast. NOTE: Please visit my "Waianae Assembly of God" post for these details. Crossroads leadership and members also have a very strong interest in overseas missions. Recent Adult Education seminars are addressing this long-term interests(s) from the church's origin and founding just 100 years ago. Also, please visit my conversation (later on in this post) with Isaac, long-time church custodian. He reflects upon each of his new morning-light inspirational encounters on the Crossroad's church courtyard and campus. This year Crossroads celebrates its 100th year anniversary. CONGRATULATIONS Church of the Crossroads!!! May YOU grow another 100 years and beyond!!!"
"Clean facility. Lawns were kept impeccable. Plenty of parking"
"Progressive Christianity and progressive politics meet here. Following Jesus' path of love and justice is hard! Join a church that will explore that path and nurture the journey."
"Crossroaders practice that God is love and God's love is all inclusive no matter the person's station or circumstances in life."
"This community really knows how to do online worship… As a visitor I felt welcomed and seen. The connections that are made between the community members the people in worship and the pastor is really quite extraordinary… And they and worship with small groups so that you can chat… My favorite part might be that you can come in early and be greeted and seen in the larger community before worship starts… These days it feels like online worship has become so much of a performance that the connection I go to worship for seems to be lost. A wonderful combination of beautiful music that is of course pre-recorded… And people really being together in worship…"
