This Sunday at Cornerstone Church... God's nature is the same from generation to generation. God does not evolve or change; He does not learn or adapt.

What should our heart attitude be like in worshipping Him? Come join us this Su...

This Sunday at Cornerstone Church... Over the next several weeks, our studies will expand upon two major emphases of the book of Ecclesiastes: 1) the fear of God, and 2) the final judgment.

This Sunday at Cornerstone Church... As Solomon concludes this sacred writing, he characterizes the nature of the collection (Eccl. 12:9-12) and draws a final conclusion (Eccl. 12:13-14).

This Sunday at Cornerstone Church... As we approach the concluding section of Ecclesiastes, we will notice Solomon commanding his readers to invest their lives wisely while life lasts (11:1-6), knowing that life holds both wonderful blessings and many days of darkness (11:8; see also v. 2).

This Sunday at Cornerstone Church... Life circumstances bring to our attention the foolishness of man. Our tendency towards foolishness is revealed in 1) common elements of life (Ecclesiastes 10:3), 2) governmental decisions (vv. 4-7), 3) pursuits of our wants and needs (vv. 8-11), our words (vv. 12-14, 20), our lack of direction (v. 15), and our lack of discretion (vv. 1...

This Sunday at Cornerstone Church... Life is filled with many variables, so people often try to control the circumstances and results of life choices. But in Ecclesiastes 9, Solomon wants to inform us that we are unable to control our lives. Life is filled with randomness (v. 11) and uncertainty (v. 12). In light of of the randomness of life and the uncertainty of when we...

This Sunday at Cornerstone Church... When we think that all of life's matters are under our control, there is an unbearable weight that presses down on us. If we think that blessing and trouble rest upon whether we act in certain ways, our view of life will be distorted and we will be very frustrated. Solomon clearly states that no one can fully grasp the way life works (...

This Sunday at Cornerstone Church... Common wisdom has wonderful benefits in this life. It enables us to deal properly with authority (Eccl. 8:1-6) and the anomalies of life (vv. 14-15). However, it will not give us the ability to know the future (vv. 7-8) or to understand all of the intricacies of how life works (vv. 16-17). True wisdomthat which comes from Godenables us...
