Rooted in Christ

God desires pastors and teachers to instruct the church in the Bible so that each member is equipped and engaged in growing the church toward Christlikeness (Eph 4:11-13).

Rooted is a simple structure that purposefully directs members to encourage each other by praying, reading the Bible, and reading Christian books together.

Through Scripture, God changes people, encourages the weary, rebukes the proud, brings faith to the doubter, produces repentance in the sinner, and leads the reader to grace through Christ. Meeting for the purpose of one on one Bible study and prayer will transform your life.

The hardest part of building effective relationships can be the first step. Rooted helps to bring people together for partnership in following Christ. Signing up and letting us know a bit about your Christian walk will help the pastors to oversee this area of need and/or opportunity.

Faith comes by hearing the Word of God. Consider meeting with an unsaved friend to read and study the BIble together so that they might come to Jesus! The implanted Word is able to save. Trust the Living Scripture to do the work.

The pastors of Crossway have compiled a handful of recommended resources that are doctrinally sound, encouraging, and will be helpful in growing in Spiritual maturity. These recommended resources as well as some copies of these books are available at the Rooted kiosk.

Every member should be helping others to follow Christ. As we build relationships we should be able to say “Follow me as I follow Christ” (1 Cor 11:1).

Meeting in person, seeing one another on Sunday, or going to someone’s home we need to walk with people as we help them follow Christ.

Rooted helps you to obey the Lord by encouraging intentional relationships, helping you find good resources, and giving you structure to guide others to follow Christ.
