At Crossroads Church, we have a strong desire to care for people in whatever life situation that they are in. Whether that is health issues (including surgeries and hospital visits), family struggles, job difficulties, relational issues, funerals, grief and loss, prayer and recovery, we believe God desires to work in your suffering and use it for your good and his glory (Romans 8:18-25).
We also believe we are whole beings and all issues of life are connected. Further, since we are spiritual beings, all issues of life and suffering that we go through are spiritual issues and the Bible has a lot to say about it!
Different seasons of life come and go. Everyone goes through seasons when they need help and Godly counsel. The world we live in is fallen, and as a result, suffering is inevitable. Though suffering is inevitable, God promises to walk through it with us and encourages us to walk with each other and seek wise counsel. Though we have a team of trained care givers for each of these areas, we also highly encourage you to be connected in a small group. If you aren't, your first step is to meet with our Next Steps Director, Christen Brown, to find the best 'next steps' for you and/or your family.
What is Pastoral Counseling?
We firmly believe that no one is meant to go through life alone. We are created for relationships. This is especially true when life throws a curve ball your way and you find yourself in a position of significant hardship. As Christians, not only are we supposed to go through life together, but we are also supposed to help each other through those storms. At Crossroads Church, we have Pastoral Counseling available for the people of Crossroads to help you during your difficult time.
Pastoral Counseling is not Professional Clinical Counseling. We are connected with Crossroads Counseling Associates, if you are looking for a Licensed Professional Counselor. Pastoral Counseling is free of charge, and takes a centrally Biblical perspective on your issue and seeks to come to healthy conclusions with a Christ-centered focus. Regardless of why you may be struggling, we want to help you find healing, redemption, growth, and all the fullness of the promises of God that he has for you!
What Kinds of Issues can Pastoral Counseling help with?
We are not experts in all of these areas, but seek to point you toward a Biblical understanding of your situation and to offer you some tools to help you through it. If there is further help needed or professional therapy needed, a referral will be made. Some of these areas may include:

We are created in such a way that we are deeply and intimately connected with people we love. It’s been said before that the only thing certain about this life, is death. Unfortunately, it is a part of life, but like everything else, we can choose to go through it alone, or in a caring community of people who will love and support us.

Weddings
Congratulations on your engagement! Preparing for your marriage can be both exciting and stressful. Here is general information about weddings at Crossroads Church.
Can I have my wedding at Crossroads?
Members or regular attendees and their family members can have a wedding at either the Northglenn or Ft. Lupton campus. Receptions may be held at both campuses as well.
How much does it cost to have a wedding at Crossroads?
Crossroads charges for a wedding include a refundable damage deposit, wedding registration fee, wedding coordinator and sound tech fees. Using space for the reception requires a refundable damage deposit.
What about pre-marital counseling?
A thriving marriage takes work, and there are strategies available to strengthen new marriages to help newly married couples get off to a great start. All couples, regardless if this is your first or second marriage, are required to attend premarital counseling and must have it completed two weeks prior to the wedding day. This is also required for couples who are using a Crossroads Pastor and are getting married at another location. The “Prepare and Enrich” curriculum is offered through Crossroads Counseling Associates and requires a separate fee for the professional counselor to facilitate these sessions.
Do Crossroads Pastors do weddings off-site?
Yes. Please contact the church office and let them know that you are having your wedding at a different location, and want to see if a particular Pastor is available.
What is the next step?
For further information about weddings, contact the wedding registrar Sheryl Skattum. We look forward to serving you!
