CrossRoads Baptist Church

About this church

CrossRoads Baptist Church gathers for its main Sunday service at 10:00 a.m. at 5075 Cleveland Avenue in Columbus. The congregation presents the morning as a place to worship God, find fellowship, and grow in a relationship with Jesus Christ. Its story reaches back to 1951, when founding pastor Jim Hankins began the church in a Columbus movie theater under the name Columbus Baptist Temple. The current name and campus carry that central-Ohio history into a stated focus on the mission of God.

The official ministry pages give visitors a more concrete picture than the worship time alone. K–12 students take part in Bible teaching, games, worship, and other activities designed to keep them connected to the wider church community. Adults seeking a smaller setting can explore groups such as the Shepherds Class, a Bible-in-hand Sunday study at 9:00 a.m., while the Young at Hearts ministry combines study, worship, discussion, and fellowship for adults 55 and older. For a first visit, that means the 10:00 service can be approached as the center of a broader Sunday morning: an earlier small-group option, age-spanning ministries, and a congregation that connects its present work with more than seven decades of local history.
