about
Truth is the summation of propositions and narratives known as the Bible. Truth is objective in that it can be known, understood, and applied to the everyday occurrences of life. Truth is dynamic in that it is experienced in community and through Gods mission. Truth is the catalyst for transformation.
The Crossings stands behind the Chicago Statement of Biblical Inerrancy in all that it says including the following excerpt: We affirm that the Holy Scriptures are to be received as the authoritative Word of God. We affirm that the written Word in its entirety is revelation given by God. We affirm that the whole of Scripture and all its parts, down to the very words of the original, were given by divine inspiration. We affirm that Scripture, having been given by divine inspiration, is infallible, so that, far from misleading us, it is true and reliable in all the matters it addresses. We affirm that Scripture in its entirety is inerrant, being free from all falsehood, fraud, or deceit.
The Crossings values truth. This value necessitates the centrality of the Bible in all things. Truth will be taught in a manner that is uncompromising and unapologetic. Truth is the value that serves as the catalyst for other values. Truth inherently necessitates community and mission. Truth is also experienced through community and on mission. Truth brings transformation. The Crossings exists, above all else, to glorify God through transforming lives into disciples of Jesus Christ.
