Night o’ worship
Sunday mornings can be life altering and can really fill up our tanks. Part of what fills us up is worshiping together, and at Cross Point we typically only do 18-20 minutes of music each Sunday. My guess is that those precious few minutes are all the time the majority of us spend expressing our hearts to God throughout the week.
But, Sunday mornings shouldn’t be spiritual Exxon stations. If you stumble in the door on “E” and leave with a full tank that’s great. But, if you consistently ride in on fumes, you’re headed for a spiritual roller coaster. We’ve got to find ways to connect all the time.
I understand everyone doesn’t connect through music, but some people feel closest to God in song. For that reason we wanted to have a night where instead of a 20 minute sample, we offer an event where people can connect in a big way.
We’ve never done an event like this before. It’s an entirely new arena, and that’s exciting. Nashville is a city filled with some of the craftiest song writers, most gifted musicians, and cutting edge producers, and for the most part, we follow worship trends – we don’t drive them. I think this city is primed to create the next movement of God through music. But that movement has to have a start. For Cross Point this is where we start. We’re ready to pull out all of the stops to start this off with a bang.

I am SOOOOOO Freaking excited for this night!!!! I connect best through awesome worship, always have! I have been praying we would do this since it was on Jen’s calendar over a year ago.
WHen I was in High school I lead worship once a month at church and in yourth and It was the closest I ever felt to God. Preping my heart all week for that was amazing! Now When im tired or burnt out i put on the “worship” play list in my car and jam for hrs on my drives to whatever city I am on my way too.
