From time to time at Cornerstone Church someone will say, "You guys seem to focus on Jesus a lot." We are always glad to hear that because it is our aim to focus on Him. The Gospel message about the good news of who Jesus is and what He has done for us is simple, but deep. We believe there is inifite truth to explore about our Savior and His grace towards us and that we are all best fed and helped as we do so together. On today's podcast our pastors discuss this intentional emphasis at Corner...
On today's podcast, our pastors discuss the recent Brown University shooting, refelcting on the realities of human grief and fear and highlighting the importance of holding onto hope in a good and merciful God in the face of such tragedies.
Via phones, tablets, and computers people are spending more time online than ever. We are magnetically attracted to our devices and to our virtual connections through them. As with so many other areas of life, the impact of this phenomenon is being felt in the church as well. More and more people are being tempted to withdraw from in-person church and choosing instead to get their spiritual nourishment online. While there are some benefits of social media ministry, there are also some costs. ...
Description: The recent loss of Charlie Kirk due to his assassination has rocked many of us, our families, our church, and our nation. What would have possessed someone to commit such a heinous act? Can we relate? What is hate speech? Was he guilty of it? Are we guilty of it? What peace can we find for ourselves and our relationships, including with others who think differently from us, at a time like this?
There is a lot of blood in the Bible. In our current sermon series at Cornerstone Church, Pastors Rob and Jeff are teaching through Hebrews, highlighting the sacrificial system of the OT and how it all points to fulfillment in Christ. All the bleeding, dying bulls, rams, goats, etc. foreshadow the sacrifice of Jesus Himself. As grusome and uncomfortable as it can be to think about blood and death, it is a helpful reminder of the seriousness of human sin and the graciousness of God's provision...
The book of Hebrews upholds Jesus as our Great High Priest, our ultimate mediator. He understands us; He sympathizes with us; and He provides for our full forgiveness and full access to our Creator God. Because of Him, we can come confidently to God's throne of grace, to find grace and mercy to help in time of need. On today's podcast, our pastors spend some time exploring some of the invaluable benefits of having such a relationship wtih Jesus and with God through Him.
We all battle with deep rooted restlessness. We struggle to trust that every need we have has been, is being, and will be provided for. We struggle to trust God to take care of us. Despite God's proven faithfulness, we often waver in unbelief. Thankfully, the highest and best provision has been made for us through Jesus. Not only do we have the promise that God will take care of our natural needs, we have the provision of Christ for our spiritual needs, including full pardon for all the other...
Today marks Cornerstone Conversation's 50th episode. On this celebratory day, our pastors sat down to talk about how the truth of the Gospel, the goodness of God to us through Jesus, is our only sure foundation. The truth of God's grace doesn't give us perfect lives or make all of our problems magically go away, but it does stabelize us and secure us as we walk through life in a fallen world and as we wait to go to our heavenly home. We are grateful to have made it to Episode 50! We hope you ...
On today's podcast, we discuss the hugely helpful reframing of our lives offered by our understanding of God's fatherly discipline. In all the challenges of life, it can anchor and edify us to know that God is up to good, teaching us to understand and experience our faith more richly.
Our pastors are excited to embark upon a new sermon series from the book of Hebrews. On today's podcast, they sit down to talk about what they love about this book, written thousands of years ago, but so relevant for today.

We recently received the results of the 2024 general election and learned that Donald Trump will once again be President of the United States. With words of truth, compassion, gratitude, and caution our pastors talk through the implications of this election for Christians living in America today.
In this Cornerstong Conversation, our pastors continue discussing the amazingly unique nature of Jesus' royalty as displayed in the Gospel of John. While we are all like psuedo sovereigns, constantly plagued by our desire to control our lives and the people and things in them, Jesus gives it all up and lays it all down for the glory of His father and the good of His people. While we are constantly fighting for our little kingdoms, fighting in our relationships, fighting in our stewardships, a...
The evangelical world has been hit yet again with a bombshell annoucement of a prominent pastor who has disqualified himself from ministry due to personal moral failure. The news has sent shockwaves of sorrow, outrage, and confusion throughout the church. How do we make sense of spiritual leaders falling into sin? How does the Bible account for such things? What help and what hope does it have to offer us? Our pastors sit down to address these questions and others on this week's Cornerstone C...
In this episode of Cornerstone Conversations, we are talking about “Glorifying God.” This is a commonly discussed biblical topic. Followers of Jesus often think about and talk about their desire to glorify God. In last Sunday’s sermon Pastor Rob talked about it quite a bit as it came up several times in our study of John 17. We will discuss this statement which was made in last week’s sermon: “We don’t make God more glorious; He is glorious.” God is glorious; His glory is most clearly seen th...
There is arguably no more formative relationship in a person's life than with their father. For better or worse, our sense of security, provision, and protection often comes from this relationship. In the Bible, God is frequently referred to as our "Heavenly Father," and unlike His earthly counterparts, He is perfect in every way, in His love, discipline, and provisions. He is also always available and always faithful. And He invites us to come to Him often and honestly. He delights in our de...
More than anything else, we need rescue from ourselves, from our fallen thinking, and from our opposition to God. And, God, in His amazing love and mercy, pulls out all the stops to save us, even using the sufferings of this life to open our eyes to our desperate need for Him.
We are just a few months from the 2024 General Election and many of us are feeling anxious. It is a time of uncertainty, a time of divisiveness, and even a time of hostility. The polarization of the political right and the political left is at a fever pitch. On today's podacst, our pastors talk about navigating through a troubling election cycle with the anchoring hope of the Gospel.
There has been a lot of chatter among Christians online lately about whether mental illness is an actual form of suffering or whether it is sin. In today's podcast, Pastors Jeff and Rob talk about the importance of having a balanced perspective on the topic and how the Gospel gives hope for all sin and suffering, including that which is associated with mental illness.
