Proverbs 16:3 

Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established. 

THE POINTE PLAN:

We believe fully that CrossPointe Church belongs to God. This is His church and He established her long before any of us were around. He has a plan and a purpose to help people see SIMPLY JESUS. And because of that, we have prayerfully and intentionally committed all of our work to Him in hopes that He would establish our plans. 

And those plans have come to fruition in THE POINTE PLAN. In the beginning of 2022 we partnered with E2: Effective Elders to do some training and equipping of CrossPointe Staff and Elders. Our time with E2 was the genesis behind our new vision and mission. We prayed and asked the Holy Spirit to give us the words and the mindset of what He was asking us to do in Mansfield. And it was simple. We believe everyone is searching for something, and we want people to know that Simply Jesus is the Truth they are searching for. 

A few months later, E2 came back to help us craft a 3-year strategic plan. We had the vision, now how do we bring the vision to life? Through some surveys and conversations, we identified the areas of Discipleship, Evangelism, and Next Generations as the weakest areas in our ministry. We weren't equipping people as followers of Jesus as well as we could. We weren't promoting and training our people to take the message of Jesus to their communities. And we had not prioritized our kids and youth. These areas are vital  if we want to reach people for Simply Jesus. 

So through much prayer and conversation (sometimes really hard ones) we developed a plan to give each of these ministries legs to stand on over the next three years. The plan is as follows: 

DISCIPLESHIP -- POINTE UP

  1. We are going to focus our prayer so that the people of XPC would grow, develop, and be more like Jesus. We are asking for God's help. 
  2. We will identify and intentionally work with those who want to be discipled and disciple others. If you want to go deeper, we are going to help you get there. 
  3. We will develop a clear, Biblical definition of what a disciple looks like in 21st century America. Discipleship is hard because the purpose of a disciple is often skewed. 
  4. We will develop an onboarding process to help people take their next step with Jesus. If someone wants to be discipled, we need to have a pathway in place. 
  5. We will promote, inspire, and communicate what a surrendered life to King Jesus looks like. Discipleship doesn't just happen. We have to intentionally call people to follow Jesus. 

We will know we are growing to be more like Jesus when: 
​Every believer at XPC can identify who they are discipling and who is discipling them. 

EVANGELISM -- POINTE OUT

  1. We are going to focus our prayers so that the people of XPC would live with urgency about reaching those far from Jesus. 
  2. We will consistently preach and teach on the reality of eternity and the importance of partnering with God to reach people far from Him. This has to be at the forefront of our minds. 
  3. We will develop and implement robust training so the people of XPC feel equipped and encouraged to share Jesus. We can't ask you to do something if we haven't helped show you how to do that something. 
  4. We will love Mansfield with intentional and thoughtful community engagement. As a church, we will share the love and hope of Jesus. 
  5. We will develop commissioning moments to send the people of XPC out as ministers of the Gospel. 

We will know we are serious about reaching the lost for Jesus when: 
Every believer at XPC builds a friendship with someone far from God & has the “Jesus Talk” in 3 years (or less).​

NEXT GENERATION -- POINTE AHEAD

  1. We are going to focus our prayer asking God to help the people of XPC engage with, pour into, and raise up the next generation of Jesus followers.
  2. We are going to develop consistent, engaging, and meaningful programming for grades K-12. We want kids to love learning about Jesus!
  3. We are going communicate and champion the importance of the Next Generation with parents. Parents are the key to reaching the next generation and we will help any way we can. 
  4. We will identify a Next Generation leader to pour into kids and students, and equip and support volunteers to do the same. We are praying that God brings someone to XPC who is passionate and talented about working with the next generation.
  5. We will develop goals and objectives with clearly defined "wins" and milestones. We will know the next generation is growing to Jesus when ________ is accomplished.

We will know we are preparing the Next Generation for Jesus when: 
Every believer at XPC prays for, encourages, and/or engages the Next Generation in specific ways.

We Need You...

There's no possible way we can accomplish this only as a team of staff and elders. We need God's people to step up and work with Him so that more and more people might realize SIMPLY JESUS as the Truth they are searching for. So here's how you can help us develop these three areas of ministries over the next years. 

PRAY:

Everyone can pray. If you think you have no other gifting, you have the ability to talk to God. Will you join our prayer team and ask God to help us as we seek to boost our discipleship, evangelism, and next generation ministries?
