Explaining the Gospel in Ten Words (Or Less)
Oct 19, 2025
Show notes
How do you share your faith without feeling weird or “pushy”? They say the best way to understand something is to try to explain it to someone else. But trying to explain the Gospel in ten words or less kinda feels like trying to fit a gallon of ice cream in an dixie cup. It can be so complex, but it can also be so, so simple. Today, Alli Patterson gives us some tools to not only understand the Gospel, but how to share it with our friends in a way that feels like Good News (and not weird or pushy).

Aug 31, 2025

It was too late for swimming lessons. When 2 million Israelites arrived at the edge of the Red Sea with all the might of Egypt nipping at their heels, it seemed like it was game over.

That job you’ve been waiting on falls through, the bills keep coming when your money runs out, you get that diagnosis you weren’t expecting. In this message, Chuck Mingo shows us how God making a way isn’t just something He does every once in a while. It’s key to who He is. Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.

But there’s actually so much more to the story. This week, Kyle Ranson unpacks how this story is not just how God saves us from danger, but actually invites us into MORE danger for the sake of our friends and neighbors.
