Mission/Vision

KING’S CROSS CHURCH exists to glorify God and enlarge His Kingdom by gathering regularly to proclaim and celebrate the Gospel of Jesus Christ, yielding to the authority of God’s Word as illuminated by the Holy Spirit and summarized in the historic Christian Creeds and Reformed Confessions, partaking together of Christ’s presence in the Sacraments, providing opportunities to love and serve one another in Community, equipping the saints for Ministry to those who are lost and hurting, both locally and globally, and preparing them to cultivate Shalom (peace and well-being) wherever God calls them to serve.

Self Protecting Redefinitions


As Jeremiah noted and then queried, "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it?" One of the very subtle ways that the prophet is proved true is the way that we redefine words like "hate" in order to feel a little less guilty and a whole lot better about ourselves. Here is a link to a brief post by Kevin DeYoung that exposes our silly attempts to deform God's Word.


So very glad for God's delight to forgive sins for Jesus' sake. That, and only that, is this hater's only hope. Can I get a witness?
