VALUES

At Crossline, we believe Jesus wants His Church to be healthy and growing (Acts 2:41-47, Ephesians 4:11-16). We believe healthy things grow. Healthy people grow, healthy communities grow, and healthy churches grow.  Healthy churches are built upon values that free and empower people to pursue after Jesus.
