    What distractions keep you from being an effective witness for Jesus Christ? One of the chief distractions is focusing on the minor differences between us, instead of building each other up in love. Paul takes this topic head-on in Romans 14.

    We’ve been talking about making ourselves available to become like God and be used by God in his Great Story. Have you ever had an important task to do—a paper to write, an assignment at work to complete, a check book that needs to be balanced? As you set yourself to that task, the phone rings, you ...read more

    When we look at a crowd of people, we see that each person is different. That difference can be seen in many ways.

    Illus: Our difference reminds me of the three women who were convicted of criminal charges and were brought before a firing squad. • One was a redhead, and all the guns were pointed at her and the Captain said, “Ready, Aim…,” and the redhead hollered “Earthquake”.

    God never gives up on us. And it's usually not the first encounter that produces the desired result but it could be the next. Let's see what the bible has to say about the next encounter.

    THE NEXT ENCOUNTER I got a call from a former member who met a young man and as the conversation turned spiritual, the young man mentioned his connection with Cornerstone, unaware the other guy also had a history with Cornerstone. They planned on getting together again and so he called me to get ...read more

    As God gives freely to the unworthy, so he gives richly, like himself, more than we are able to ask or think. His gifts outdo our requests and expectations.

    2 Kings 3:9-18 “A Simple Matter” January 15, 2023 The Division King Jehoram of Israel was not an honorable man. “He did evil in the sight of the Lord” Though he was not like his father Ahab or his mother Jezebel because he put away the sacred things of the false god Baal, we are told that he still ...read more
