College Group

CrossCon was started in 2013 with the goal of stirring up church-centered missions. Their core values reflect a desire to keep God’s Word and His Church in the center of an all-encompassing view of the great commission. Attendance in 2023 was 5,000, and so they decided to make the conference annual. In 2024, they saw their numbers double to 10,000, and this year we joined 15,000 other students in Kentucky. Louisville was practically overrun by college aged Christians from all over who had come together to direct their focus on God’s mission. Over three days, we sang together, heard sermons, listened to panel interviews, and attended breakout sessions. From small things, like how often we pull out our phones, to big things, like considering long term missions, this experience left our hearts and minds busy.

Last Sunday, while our young adults were away at a retreat in Virginia, I made a pastoral appeal to our older adult members to consider how they might get involved to serve their younger adult peers. Part of what I shared included ideas for how to get involved. Here are some highlights:

The college group (CG) is an outreach-focused small group within Sovereign Grace Church. We believe that as young men and women we are called to "go and make disciples" (Matt. 28:19).
