Mountains aren’t just in national parks—they show up in your life, too. Kyle shows how even the tiniest step of faith can turn a looming obstacle into a story of triumph. Faith isn’t about certainty or magic. It’s about taking the first step, trusting God, and moving forward even when the peak looks out of reach. Get ready to start climbing.

God can’t be controlled. Yet, we think the more we do the good “church things”, God will respond with giving us all the cool stuff we want. Not so. In a special message under the tent at Base Camp, guest speaker Jon Tyson shows us how real freedom (and maybe even some of that stuff we want) can only be found in God—in true surrender.

How do you share your faith without feeling weird or “pushy”? They say the best way to understand something is to try to explain it to someone else. But trying to explain the Gospel in ten words or less kinda feels like trying to fit a gallon of ice cream in an dixie cup. It can be so complex, but it can also be so, so simple. Today, Alli Patterson gives us some tools to not only understand the Gospel, but how to share it with...

Ok, we know we’re supposed to share the Good News of Jesus. But, uh…how? The even better news is that you don’t have to do it alone. There’s a Helper.

Evangelism” sounds like a scary word. You might picture guy in a suit speaking to a stadium or a guy screaming on the street corner. But what if we told you that the people Jesus called to be evangelists are…you and me?
This week, Kyle shows us how evangelism isn’t just to reach “those” people “out there”, but all of us are called to go not just to the ends of the earth, but to our neighbors next door.

You’ve probably heard of Noah’s Ark. Animals, a boat, a rainbow... and, oh yeah, a global flood. Sounds like God was in a bad mood, right? This week, Kyle Ranson flips the script on one of the Bible’s wildest stories. It’s not about anger (or even just a Biblical precursor of “We Bought a Zoo”)—it’s about a God and his deep love for his people. Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.

“Faith” is one of those nice words you might see stitched into a pillow or on the class roll at a Christian school. We might think it has something to do with believing God or having nice thoughts. But what if we told you faith isn’t just reading the Bible and going “Nice! Thumbs up!“, but really comes down to believing something enough to move. This week, Alli Patterson shows why out of the whole city of Jericho, God chose Ra...

It seems like in the Bible, miracles are happening all the time. Did they stop happening when they invented the Polaroid or something? What’s up with that?Some of us feel like if we saw a miracle happen before our own eyes, we’d be the best believers of all time. Yet the Israelites saw the Red Sea part and were grumbling and complaining again three days later. Jump in to hear Brian Tome break down why growth, faith, and gratit...

It was too late for swimming lessons. When 2 million Israelites arrived at the edge of the Red Sea with all the might of Egypt nipping at their heels, it seemed like it was game over. But where there was a sea, God made a highway. Maybe you feel up against the Red Sea in your own life. That job you’ve been waiting on falls through, the bills keep coming when your money runs out, you get that diagnosis you weren’t expecting. In...

Maybe you’ve heard about Daniel in the Lion’s Den from Sunday School. The moral of the story probably went something like this: if you’re nice and faithful, God will save you from all of your troubles and you’ll never have to deal with any difficulty and you can play with the nice kitties. But there’s actually so much more to the story. This week, Kyle Ranson unpacks how this story is not just how God saves us from danger, but...

We’ve all felt dry. There’s something about being stuck in the same job, same relationship (or lack thereof), or going back to the same old habits that can have your spiritual life feeling like a mouthful of saltines. This week, Brian Tome unpacks the story of Elijah’s showdown with the prophets of Baal and how it can show us how to stay faithful even when you’ve got spiritual cottonmouth.

We have a way God’s love looks in our heads: rainbows, puppies, and maybe even a gallon bucket of that one frappe from Starbucks. Yeah...that’s not quite what Jonah felt when he found himself stuck in the digestive track of a giant sea beast. But what if that’s the exact thing that Jonah needed to come back to God at that time? This week Alli Patterson shows us how God’s mercy is always chasing us, and God can and will use wha...

“Are we there yet?” There’s a chance you’ve heard that (or said it) from the back of a minivan when you’re hours from your destination and there’s still another 400 miles until the next Buc-ees. When we’re waiting on your spouse, next promotion, or next vacation, life can feel the same way. So when life isn’t going our pace, how can we trust that God is still good?

There’s a long list of things that can make you feel like you’re a “Bad Christian™“. The swear word when you stub your toe. The glass of wine when the kids are in bed. Sometimes it’s just as simple as asking one too many questions.
But what if asking questions didn’t mean you were far away from God? What if it’s just the doorway to know Him more? In a world that’s quick to hop into a all caps-lock online debate, Chuc...

Reflections aren’t just for selfies or pre-date checkups. Sure, mirrors are great for fixing your hair… but what about that spiritual broccoli in your teeth? This week, Joel Firebaugh reminds us that faith isn’t about sitting still and feeling convicted, then going to Chipotle after service. It’s about getting up and doing something about it. When we recognize and repent, Jesus can redeem.

Life’s challenges are going to come. And they have a funny way of not sending you a calendar invite beforehand. A layoff, diagnosis, or Bengals loss can throw all your outer peace out the window. So what do you do? Kyle Ranson shows us how your life isn’t won on the big stage—it’s in the small, unseen decisions you make every day. Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Whether or not you know it, you’re in a fight. But you weren’t thrown into the battlefield with barefoot and empty-handed. God gave us weapons to protect and to fight back the enemy. And when we team up with Jesus and the people around us, we don’t fight FOR victory. We get to fight FROM victory. Join Chuck Mingo as he breaks down the battle plans.

You might be breathing... but are you actually living?
Some days, it’s easier to scroll past, stay numb, and check out. That quiet voice saying, “Why bother?” That’s apathy. And it’s one of the enemy’s most effective weapons. Left unchecked, it will dull your heart, steal your purpose, and leave you to rot.
But Jesus offers something radically different. He promises a life that’s fully alive—a life filled with purpose,...
