C.R.O.S.S. Ministries is the teaching arm of the Educational Ministry of New Piney Grove Baptist Church. Its sole goal and purpose is to equip those who teach the Word of God (Seed Sowers), with methods and techniques that will enhance the learning experience of those endeavoring to learn more about the Bible.

The ministry is designed to continually reinforce the value of hermeneutics and homiletical skills through expository teaching. It is from this desire that the name was formed

Continuing Reinforcement of Seed Sowers.

Biblical Education is at the heart of C.R.O.S.S. Ministries; the love of learning is the fire and the fulfillment of the Great Commission is our motivation. The logo of C.R.O.S.S. ministries attempts to demonstrate this concept. The cross reminds of Jesus sacrifice who commanded us to “teach.” The Bible stands for what we are commanded to teach. And the lampstand symbolizes the fire, light and power of the Holy Spirit which enables us to teach.
