Who wants to be like Jesus?

I am a Christian.

That is all....

No wait, that's not all.

I grew up thinking that faith was a solo act. It was just me and God against the world (was that to melodramatic?). As I grew in my faith I realized that without other people I am, well, alone. Who wants to be alone? God made two people so that they wouldn't be alone, Hebrews 10:24-25 teaches that we need to meet together so that we can be encouraged. We were made to go to church.

I love The Crossing. It's mission is to have Jesus change the lives of everyone who lives in Elk River and the surrounding areas (like New York city). This is not a small vision, this is a huge undertaking.

Pastor Eric's heart is to be like Jesus, and that is why this vision is happening. Honestly, I have been in church for most of my life and I have known a LOT of pastors. Pastor Eric is the Godliest man I have ever met. He eats, breaths, drinks, and lives Jesus.

God uses Pastor Eric for His glory.

If the goal of every Christian is to be like Jesus then Pastor Eric is doing a great job. I pray for my pastor every day because he and his family are doing something incredible for the kingdom of heaven.

The Crossing, Pastor Eric and Pastor Kelly all boil down to one thing, one solitary vision.

It is always only about Jesus

That is what I want to be like.
