Family Info

Hello, my name is Kyle Schiff and I am the teaching pastor at Crossroad Church here in Madison County Iowa. Before moving to Iowa, I hailed from the south living in the states of North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee and Texas.  

After serving churches in both TN and TX and  spending  four years living in Indonesia as missionaries to the persecuted and unreached, our family is now overjoyed with this new opportunity and privilege of serving the name of Christ in this location as well.  

We as a family are deeply devoted to Christ and His Word, hospitality, evangelism, discipleship and living lives of authenticity with others. My personal passions in ministry are preaching/teaching (shepherding), sharing the message of the Gospel with others (evangelism) and walking others into a deeper knowledge of God's word and the Gospel (discipleship). My desire is to see others walking as disciples of Jesus Christ, who in turn, seek to reach their own families, communities and ultimately the world for Christ's glory.

Please, never hesitate to write me an e-mail if ever I can do anything for you. Also know that you are more than welcome to visit us for worship at Crossroad Evangelical Free Church if  you are in the area as well.

All for His glory,
Kyle Schiff
