MISSION AND VISION

Go therefore and make disciples...

OUR MISSION IS TO LEAD PEOPLE TO CONNECT AND COMMIT TO JESUS


Our mission for CrossPointe is simple; we want CrossPointe to be a growing, vibrant, missional church for this and future generations. We will stand on the truth of Scripture and we will not be swayed by the whims of our culture. We will teach the truth of God boldly and we will encourage members to relentlessly pursue a passionate life of reckless obedience to our Savior and King. We pray for God to add to His church as He pleases and we will strive to do anything and everything we can do to impact our culture with the life-changing, life-giving message of the gospel. We believe the result will be a church that resembles the churches established by that first generation of Christ followers. We also believe that the impact of such a church will spread across generational and ethnic lines, producing a church for anyone who loves Jesus, for those who want to learn about Jesus, and for those who want to serve Jesus.

OUR STORY

How it all started...

CrossPointe Church actually began as Calvary Bible Baptist Church.  In 1976 Bob and Joy Burney moved to Westerville with a desire to plant a brand-new church.  The first service was held at the Grange Hall on College Avenue.  Before long the church outgrew that facility and merged with the Morse Road Baptist Church.  As the church continued to grow, the decision was made to buy land and build a new building on Cleveland Avenue.  Bob continued to pastor the church until 2000 when he stepped away to create Cross Power Ministries and to focus on his daily Christian radio talk show.  Herb Koonce became the second pastor of the church and served in that capacity until 2008.
