Crosstown's Values

Crosstown is child-centered: ECB's children's ministries exist for the children. The program is shaped by the nature, needs, and interests of children (Mark 10:13-16; 1 Corinthians 9:22, 13:11).

Crosstown is application-oriented: Bible instruction focuses on life transformation (Psalm 119:105; James 1:22-25).

Crosstown is relational: Children best learn and apply the truths of the Bible in the context of loving relationships with adults and with other children (Deuteronomy 6:4-6; Mark 3:13-14; Luke 6:40; John 17:22-23).

Crosstown is FUN!: The style of ministry should be one kids enjoy, not dread.
