CROSSWAY CHURCH ESSENTIAL STEPS

Be Baptized.
Why is Baptism Important? As a disciple of Christ, it’s important that we publicly stand with Him in celebrating our new life. That makes baptism a great first step for a new follower of Christ to take. Baptism is our way of telling the world about our relationship with Christ. Jesus did it, and it’s an important way we can follow His footsteps.
Acts 8:35-38

Give.
When we give, it acknowledges God as the giver of everything we have. It also reflects our trust that He will continue to provide for us, is an act of worship, and allows us to be a part of His work here on earth. It’s something we do with joy. Malachi 3:10
Tithes
The Bible teaches us that our baseline standard for giving is the tithe — contributing 10% of our income to
the church. At Crossway, we know tithing has been a turning point for many people to experience the
blessings of following Jesus.
Offerings
When God stirs you to give beyond your tithe, that is called an offering. Offerings are part of our responding
to Holy Spirit's direction in our life as we give cheerfully and obediently above and beyond our tithing.

Bring your family.
Following Jesus is a journey that becomes even more meaningful when shared. A great way to lay the groundwork is getting your kids involved in the ministry that’s designed just for them.
