The Crossing Church 222 Laurel Avenue, Livingston, NJ 07039

"My Bride and I were looking for a church where teaching through, not from, the Bible is the pastoral focus. We were looking for a place where we could safely send others, regardless of where they are in their spiritual journey. We were looking for a place where transparency and genuine fellowship are modeled and promoted. We did not want to travel more than 15 minutes, so we could participate in the life of the Body. We got all that. I am not saying the skylight is a (physical) portal to Heaven. In fact, I do not think there is a skylight. But there are people here who make Eternity with Jesus Christ a place where you just gotta be! And if you do not know Him, these folks make you want to know Him. Now, on that Heaven thing, there is a description in the Revelation of the demographic there. This was a secondary feature for us. We were willing to accept a demographic that reflected the church's physical location. All we wanted was a place where demographics were only seen as primarily external, not defining characteristics. The Crossing Church is that and more. Expect genuine smiles and greetings from people who do and do not share your background, lifestyle, ethnicity, language, etc. Expect to be embraced. Expect to be supported in your growth and life of faith in Jesus Christ. If you are broken, fallen, bewildered, lost, searching, growing, exhausted, you are welcome here. The motto here is to the effect of, "fallen or broken people stumbling forward." We started attending in February, 2024. I am writing this in June, 2024. I would have written this in March."

"I finally went for the first time today. And I am glad I did. 2 things that are very important to me, 1st-The word of God being preached, 2nd-prayer for the saints. The church demonstrated both. Then I received a call from the pastor himself, I did not expect that. that has never happened to me, that's how you know the church really care about people. I will be returning really soon."

"Been attending this church since my childhood in Middle School in ‘06 and glad I did. Diverse group of great ppl that take the time to get to know you and build a rapport with you not only inside but outside the church. Can truly say this church helped develop a lot of who am I today."

"An amazing church, incredible pastors, and very welcoming. They offer life groups weekly that have been amazing which connected us as a family closer to those in the church. It was a life saver during the pandemic. They offer online and in person service. A great place for families. This is the best church I have ever attended in my life. It’s truly blessed."

"Have been attending this church for majority of my life. Every sermon delivered is captivating and inspiring by our lead pastor and guest speakers! Nearly every week, Sunday's sermon is posted on the church's website and on additional podcast databases/applications, but they don't compare to listen to the sermon in person. The music is wonderfully coordinated and the congregation always spread love and joy! There are many opportunities offer at the crossing to engage and spread the Gospel to others. Come and worship with us!"
