WHO WE ARE

Engaging Corporate Worship: By the grace of God, Crosspoint will be a church that powerfully engages its people in Word-centered worship which will be characterized by the  joyful  singing  of  psalms, hymns,  and  spiritual songs;  clear,  practical  expository  preaching;  passionate  prayer  and intercession,  and  thoughtful  Scripture  reading.  The  aim of our worship is to glorify our great God and to encourage and equip the saints for the work of the ministry.

Great Commission Focus: By the grace of God, Crosspoint will be a church steadfastly committed to the fulfillment of the Great Commission. We will equip, send, and support members to work in the harvest fields, locally and around the world, engaging with established ministries as appropriate. We will create platforms for each member to person-ally be a part of gospel ministry, using our own time and energy for reaching Omaha and surrounding communities.

Intentional Discipleship: By  the  grace  of  God, Crosspoint  will  be  a  church that  purposefully trains  each  person  in  the  body,  young  and  old,  so they may  be  constantly  pressing toward spiritual maturity, using their gifts and resources in ministry, and living authentic,  godly  lives  with  a  view  towards regularly  sharing  the  Good  News  of  Christ  with others.

Loving Community: By the grace of God, Crosspoint will be a church marked by genuine  community  and  loving  relationships,  providing  support, counseling, accountability,and encouragement. We will welcome all those looking for hope or seeking to grow in or know  more  about  Christ,  fostering freedom  to  ask  questions  and  to  grow  at  different  paces, while extending Christ-like grace to all.

Passionate Prayer: By the grace of God, Crosspoint will be a church of deliberate, passionate prayer that permeates every facet of the lives and ministries of all our members. The  purpose  of  our  prayer  is  to communicate  with  God,  to  commune  with  Him,  and  to  deliberately declare our dependence on His strength, help, and upholding.

Servant Leadership: By the grace of God, Crosspoint will be a church led by both seminary-trained and lay elders to collaboratively guide the ministry with excellence, accountability, and strategic intent towards its God-ordained purpose in Omaha and the world.

Crosspoint has been served by four full-time lead pastors. Since its beginning, Crosspoint Bible Church has been affiliated with the Fellowship of Evangelical Bible Churches, an association that stands firm on the fundamental doctrines of salvation by faith alone and the inspiration of Scripture. The FEBC is not a “denomination,” but an association of church.  Crosspoint Bible Church can structure ministry to accomplish its own discipleship goals, and through this, impact the Omaha Metropolitan area and the world.

The church began as a church plant in the Florence area of Omaha in the 1960’s. In the early 1970’s, it became Evangelical Bible Church, purchasing the current property in the northwest area of the city, at 78th and Fort. In 1972, the original building was dedicated, and the first full-time pastor called.

As God blessed Evangelical Bible Church with new people, the size of the church and building grew. In the late 70’s the building size doubled, and more than doubled again in the early 90’s.  In 2014, Evangelical Bible Church became Crosspoint Bible Church.

In 2017-18, the most recent expansion and extensive renovation was completed. A new parking lot, nursery, resource center, foyer fellowship area, and main entry drop-off canopy were added. In addition to numerous infrastructure improvements, the church office area was also expanded, adding sorely needed support and staff area.
