Randy grew up in the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois… until his family finally saw the light and moved to God’s country (a.k.a. Texas) in 1985. While living in San Antonio, Randy finished his secondary education and graduated from William H. Taft High School in 1990.
From that point, he attended Evangel University in Springfield, Missouri on a football scholarship and in the Spring of 1994 received two undergraduate degrees in Biblical Studies and Political Science (Pre-Law).
In his years at Evangel, Randy found and married the love of his life, Kelli… and the two of them have since dedicated their lives and family ( including their 3 sons) to serving in full-time ministry.
Since 2002, Randy has served as the Lead Pastor of Cross Mountain Church… where he consistently brings a positive message with passion and creativity that will inspire you to practically live out your faith in Jesus Christ.

Jerry McNeill serves as the Missions and Reaching Pastor at Cross Mountain Church and was one of its founding pastors in January of 1997. Jerry oversees the missions and outreaches of which CMC is a part of both in our community, our city and around the world.
He began serving in full time ministry in 1969 after completing his education in Christian Education and Music studies at Dallas Baptist University. He is married and has three children and six grandchildren.
As an ordained Southern Baptist minister, Jerry first began his full time ministry serving in several Baptist churches as a Youth and Music minister before devoting the majority of his ministry years in service at Community Church in Orange, Texas and then here at Cross Mountain Church. During his nearly forty years in full time ministry, Jerry has always had a great desire to see young people develop a servant heart and a commitment to serve the needs of others in the same loving way that Jesus did. In order to accomplish this, over more than thirty of those years, he led mission endeavors to Mexico and the Native American Reservations of New Mexico and Arizona.
These mission endeavors along with a heart for those who need the forgiveness in Christ both here and around the world have led him into the arena where he now serves at Cross Mountain Church.
Whether it is a cup of coffee for a total stranger in line behind him at Starbucks or leading a mission’s team to a foreign country, Jerry’s passion is to both serve and show others how they can reach out with the love of Christ both at home and around the world.
