Engaging Hearts - Challenging Minds - Encountering God

Our Mission
Worship and Arts @ crossWinds is all about engaging the hearts of Christ-followers and challenging the hearts of seekers to an authentic response to the genuine heart of God.  
"He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the Lord." Ps 40:3.

We believe that part of God’s underlying character is creativity. We seek to use creative elements within a service to impact both heart and mind. We seek to use gifted artists in the areas of music, drama and video as well as skilled technicians who serve in the production and technical side of the ministry.  




Our Worship Values
We value excellence in worship.  Excellence is distinctly different than perfection. Excellence is the pursuit of presenting our very best to the Living God. – Give God Your Very Best

We value releasing each musician in their giftedness to express genuine worship from their heart to God through their instrument. – Be Yourself

We value a humble heart among artists. Humble, servant-artists follow the perfect example of Jesus, who led by serving and served by leading. – Leave Your Ego at The Door

We  value engagement. Worship should not be a spectator sport but rather an authentic, engaged response to the genuine heart of God. – Model Authentic Worship on Stage

We value a growing relationship with Jesus.  As artists we commit to be in a Home Group or discipleship relationship, invest in personal study and meditation time and seek accountability with our arts team. - Be an Authentic Christ Follower

There are many areas in the arts to serve at crossWinds; vocals, band, sound, media, video, lighting, design team, drama, set design and construction.
