Welcome to
CROSS LUTHERAN
CHURCH & SCHOOL
LOVE | WALK | GROW
Cross Lutheran is a vibrant and active family of faith in Yorkville, Illinois where people of all upbringings and identities can learn about and follow Jesus. All are welcome to join together on a mission as we Walk with God, Grow in Faith Together, and Love Our Neighbors.
We believe a follower of Jesus will mature as a disciple of Jesus through the intentional processes of spiritual formation and leadership multiplication. Jesus’ work on earth is not limited to a few people in a few places but is gifted to all believers in all places. At Cross we encourage and challenge each other to be in the presence of Jesus right where you are.
November Sermon Series: Generosity Ladder
Our current sermon series is based on the book The Generosity Ladder: Your Next Step to Financial Peace.
“Our intentions to handle our resources well may be good, but money in our culture has gone bad.”
This is one of many quotes from the book that seeks to help us widen our perspective when it comes to thinking about money. The authors, Nelson Searcy and Jennifer Dykes Henson, walk us through what the Generosity Ladder is, and how it can help us as we consider how to be generous and good stewards of the blessings we receive from God. Join us as we learn to climb the Generosity Ladder, which starts with this quote and Bible verse found at the end of Chapter 1:
“[But] you have to be willing to let the lens of truth clarify your perspective, starting with one big underlying, paradigm-shifting truth: God owns it all.
“Everything was created through him and for him.” Colossians 1:16
Cross Lutheran brings us together in celebration
Our Lutheran church is home to an inspiring and fascinating celebration of faith and love. Our community is not only fun – it lifts the hearts of all of us who believe in a better world and gives us hope for tomorrow. Cross is a place where people of all ages can worship and encourage harmony.
For by grace you have been saved, through faith – and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God – not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:8-10
