Beliefs and Practices
Crossroads Christian Church believes that the Bible is directly inspired by God. The church also believes in the Trinity, as well as Christ's death on the cross and the resurrection.

The church practices the following:
 * Salvation. Each service offers an Altar call, a time and space for people to make a spiritual commitment to Jesus Christ publicly.
 * Water baptism. Baptism by immersion symbolizes a person's faith and obedience to God, as well as their union with Christ.
 * Communion. The church believes the Bible asks for this act of remembrance and faith.
