About Crosswinds

Crosswinds Church is a Christ-Centered community in Plainfield Illinois, located at the corner of Route 59 & 143rd Street. It is a place where you can discover who God is and live out your faith in uplifting and practical ways. We believe the Bible teaches that we don’t come to church but that we are the church, so we teach our members to have an impact on their families, workplaces, schools, community, and beyond. The church was started by ordinary people who God has used to do great things to show love and kindness in Plainfield, our county, our region, our state, and other countries..

Our goal is not just for you to come and visit us but for you to take what you learn about God at Crosswinds and share that with someone else to encourage them on their journey. God has a wonderful design for our lives, but life can be hard and we live in a broken world. We all need help and encouragement on our journey, so we seek to give people practical tools. These tools not only help them find peace and joy in their everyday lives, but help others to do the same. We are not perfect. The Bible says no one but Jesus is perfect, but we hope you will come and grow with us. We hope you will help us to make our lives and the lives of others better by discovering the hope that is found in Jesus Christ!

The Habit of Reflection
Deuteronomy 4:32-40 | Mon, Mar 12, 2018 | Pastor John Stillman

There really is a lot to get done, or that could get done, every day. But what if you could make even a small change in how you approach each day? It might mean that you could get more done, or get done what you need to get done with less getting in the way, less frustration and exasperation, less worry or grumbling. In this message, Pastor John looks at the habit of reflection, or "thinking in the presence of God," as a way for us to give devotion to God and get direction from God every day.
