This Sunday at Cornerstone Church... Pressure is continually mounting for gospel churches to cater to the mindset, philosophy, and manner of life set by the world's culture. Those who herald a different message are seen as intolerant and unloving. This dichotomy of thought is not a surprise to God or to the writers of Scripture.

The Almighty appeared on earth as a helpless human baby, unable to do more than lie and stare and wriggle and make noises, needing to be fed and changed and taught to talk like any other child.

It was in order, you see, that weakness might become strong, that strength...

This Sunday at Cornerstone Church... As we continue our study of Philippians, we'll assess along with the apostle Paul whether we prioritize our own joy and comfort or the greater purpose of magnifying Jesus Christ our Lord. Paul was able to confidently navigate through the pain and turmoil of life because he knew that no matter what happened to him, Christ would be magni...

"'Hallelujah! For the Lord our God the Almighty reigns. Let us rejoice and exult and give him the glory' (Rev. 19:67). On into eternity the song echoes. It is the celebration chant of the redeemed. And one day we will join that multitude, no longer looking forward in hope but looking back with the security of redemption accomplished, and with the angels and the saints of o...
