See Lives Changed
As a leader, you want to see your students impacted by the life-changing gospel of Christ. But it’s easy to get bogged down with the logistics of planning engaging experiences for your students that make room for spiritual growth.
The good news is you don’t have to do this alone! Your time and energy is limited and should be spent on relational ministry—investing in the everyday lives of your students. We want to be your partner in ministry and help your students encounter the gospel like never before. That’s why we intentionally infuse the gospel into every detail and high-energy activity so that campers can go deeper with Christ and with each other.
With Crossings as your ministry partner, you are freed up to focus on your students and see powerful life change!

Matt Joiner
Originally from Channahon, IL, Matt Joiner grew up in church but did not become a Christian until he was 20 years old. Shortly after he began following Christ, he felt God calling him to full-time ministry. In 2007 Matt moved to Louisville, KY, where he attended Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, receiving his Master of Divinity in Christian Ministries. During his studies at Southern, Matt became the Student Pastor at a local church and served in that role for 10 years. During his second year at Southern, he married the love of his life, Erin. Matt and Erin have two daughters, Ezra Mae and Ivy Louise, who are an absolute joy and blessing. Matt has also served as a discipleship pastor for 6 years (2017-2023) and has recently planted a church (April 2023). Also, he is back at Southern Seminary in the final stages of completing his D.Ed.Min in Biblical Counseling. He is passionate about Jesus Christ and His Kingdom. He desires to see every Christian do their part for the Great Commission by sharing their faith and making disciples of Jesus Christ for the glory of God.
Jamie Caldwell
Jamie was called into ministry at 18 years old and spent the next two decades preaching at student camps, working at churches, and training for ministry. A little more than 10 years ago, Jamie planted a church near Annapolis. Now he pastors that church and works as the Send Network’s State Director for Church Planting in MD/DE. When he’s not working, he is probably reading, watching cooking shows, eating tacos, or hanging out with his family.
