Brian Miller and his fantastic wife, Danelle, have three children, Alyssa, Cayden, and Ethan.  They are starting the church they've always dreamed of. "The vision for this church has come out of my life experience. I have always known God. I have always believed in Jesus. When I was 4 years old attending the Bible Church in Martinsville, IL, Zola Wolfe told us children about Jesus, and I have always accepted it as a fact. But my experience with churches has not been so good. My experience has been dry. The sermons were empty. There was no connection with God or with other people. The songs were ancient. The people seemed unchanged. The community wasn’t touched."In 1989, Brian earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Engineering from the University of Illinois and took a job in Austin, TX with IBM. "Since eighth grade, my goal had been to be a computer engineer. I was living in a great town, with a great job, and great people to work with. But it was still empty."In 1994, Brian received a Masters of Divinity from Winebrenner Theological Seminary in Findlay, OH. After seminary, he pastored a traditional church for four years. In the summer of 1999, God directed Brian and Danelle
to start a church that would allow people who didn't feel comfortable in
church to come and connect with Him. That church is The Crossover.
