Cross Church (my home church in Arkansas) is just incredible. It's the highlight of my week every week. The people are great, there is genuine care for one another. The sermons are biblical and easily applicable. Nick Floyd brings it every single week. My favorite thing about my church, though, is getting to worship there.

Besides being really good, the worship team is incredibly real and wholesome. The worship isn't gaudy or just for show, it is Christians coming together, being vulnerable and worshipping our Savior. There isn't anything else throughout my week at school I look more forward to than getting to worship at my church.

Earlier this year the worship team and some other members of my church put together a video performing the popular worship song "Death Was Arrested" and all I had to say the first time I heard it was WOW. It is basically a halftime pump up speech for Christians. Just watch it below and you'll know what I am talking about.

I hope this video can benefit you the way it has benefitted me. I listen to it at least once a day everyday now. It encourages me to stay focused on what is important, and that whatever sin is trying to hold us captive has no power over us. Our God has won the fight. He is on the throne.

If you're not a Christian and you read this and see this video I hope the words can give you a glimpse of what we believe. We are sinners, dead to our own choices to run away from God. God's son, Jesus Christ, came down and died for us, taking the punishment we deserve. Because of this, we are free. We live knowing the battle is over, because Christ already won. If you are hurting or searching for purpose, I hope you listen to the words shared by my church's worship team, and here what they are saying. See God's love for you, and the extent He went to so that you could be His child.

God bless you, and I hope this video blesses whoever reads this.
