Support God’s Global Mission

Hey there! We’re so grateful you’re considering partnering with us in reaching the lost at the University of North Texas (UNT). God has called us to live on mission so we’re devoting our lives to spreading the gospel wherever he sends us. This begins with students in Denton, TX and extends overseas when God sends us into the world!

- Caleb & Mackenzie

Let’s make much of Jesus

in Texas

and to the ends of the earth

Friends and Mentors

  • James Sercey - Lead Pastor

    Since planting Cross & Crown, Caleb Norman has been a wonderful answer to prayer! His love for Jesus and the church has rubbed off on many and has greatly contributed in the building up of this church. I believe God’s hand is on Caleb and your support of and partnership with him would be well stewarded towards the advancement of the kingdom in the North Fort Worth area and even around the world.

    I look forward to having Caleb on the team!

  • Joe Crider - Dean of Music SWBTS

    It has been a joy getting to know Caleb Norman. He has been such an encouragement to me and many others because he is articulate, humble, joyful, servant-hearted, teachable, sincere, studious, and a very gifted musician.

    I look forward to seeing how the Lord will continue to work in him and through him for God’s glory.

  • Armando Hernandez - Admissions Director SWBTS

    I have had the privilege to serve alongside Caleb in the Admissions Department. He is focused on excellence without divorcing his spiritual commitments to Christ and His Church. He is keenly aware of his dependence on God and brings spiritual convictions to our department in his silent pursuit of God’s glory.

    Caleb has displayed to our department what it is like to “do all things as unto the Lord”.

Why?

There are 4.6 billion people living in the world who have no idea who Jesus is because they simply haven’t heard.

They form 59% of the world’s population and are often grouped into 7,388 ethnic groups (1). These unreached people groups are described by Radical Ministries as:

“…Those among whom Christ is largely unknown and the church is relatively insufficient to make Christ known to its broader population without outside help (2).”

Sometimes this is because they live in the hard-to-reach places (see the 10/40 window), where language, geography, persecution, or politics create obstacles to missions. Sometimes, however, they remain unreached because we fail to give or go. Radical ministries documents that only 1% of missions resources and 3% of missionaries go to the unreached peoples and places (3).

If Cross & Crown’s mission is to help people meet and follow Jesus, then I hope to see that taken to the lost in Roanoke and the unreached across the globe.
