Jesus And Undaunted! Series

Contributed by Larry Vollink on Apr 2, 2021

Jesus taught his disciples to be 'undaunted' and showed examples of how HE was undaunted. Listen!

Last year, in Grand Rapids, Cornerstone Christian University displayed on a well traveled highway, a billboard with the huge word, "UNDAUNTED", and you had to read the small print as you got closer, "Live your life with meaning!, and attend Cornerstone!" Undaunted living can ...read more

What Is This?

Contributed by Gaither Bailey on Jan 28, 2021

Are we amazed with the authority of the words of Christ Jesus?

What Is This? Mark 1: 21 - 28 Intro: Out of necessity, I live in a world of words.

The Best News Ever: Jesus Has Risen

Contributed by Dr. Abraham Obadare on Feb 19, 2021

Simon Of Cyrene Helps Jesus Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 16, 2022

We don’t know if Simon complained all the way to Golgotha, or recognized Jesus and was glad he had helped, but his name--unlike most of those minor players in the Gospel drama-- has come to us.

Simon of Cyrene helps Jesus (Those of us who have had the privilege and honor of a pilgrimage to the Holy Land always make Jerusalem part of the holy time.

Contributed by Grant Adams on Sep 6, 2021

We are living in an age and time in which this seems to be the theme; how to get more out of……

Palm Sunday Of The Lord’s Passion, Year B

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Mar 18, 2021

The trial reveals a political theology where resistance and resilience are faithful Christian practices

Pilate questioned him, “Are you the king of the Jews?” He said to him in reply, “You say so.” Meaning, “is this a personal discovery? Or are you just repeating what others have told you?” In a famous sentence Plato said, “The unexamined life is not worth living.” We may also say the ...read more

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 24, 2024

"From the beginning it was not so." Matthew 19:8.

MARRIAGE, DIVORCE, AND CELIBACY. Matthew 19:1-12. The Pharisees’ question about divorce was cynical in that it, like many of their questions addressed to Jesus, was asked with the intention of “tempting” Jesus into saying something that would cause offence (MATTHEW 19:3).

Yes, Jesus Is Certainly Lord And King

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 18, 2024

Our solemnity today is that of Christ the King. When we claim that Christ is the King of the Universe, we support that claim with a passage that seems to be quite crazy.

Christ the King Once upon a time in a land not far from here, there was a choice to be made for the leader of the land. A woman was placed in contention for the prime leader of the whole nation. Her platform was not well-defined, but one thing was clear from every word out of her mouth. She had no ...read more
