    Though we acknowledge that God is in control, we will never find peace until we spend time alone with Him. What exactly is the best way for each of us to encounter Jesus? We are each unique individuals, and each of us is drawn to Jesus by different ways

    Oh the riches of this world True joy I have not found The pull of your might The chase of my wants My flesh cannot contend With the spirit man within Though we acknowledge that God is in control, we will never find peace until we spend time alone with Him.

    All of us need a Fresh Encounter. Without any apology, Richard Blackaby was my inspiration for developing this message. Everyone needs a "First Encounter" with Jesus followed by a "Fresh Encounter"...It's life-changing.

    Fresh Encounter Jerry Watts John 12:1-11 * Have you ever had an experience which you would call an ‘encounter?’ Encounters are those events in your life which you ‘remember!’ I’ll never forget the time I almost stepped on a cotton mouth moccasin. I’ll never ...read more

    A sermon for Palm Sunday to encourage people to encounter Jesus, the true king.

    We are nearly there. It’s nearly Easter. Maybe you are looking forward to that extra dose of chocolate. Perhaps your looking forward to an extra day or two off.

    This is not a full text sermon...it is an approach to the text; think of it as seed for a sermon.

    Upon reading today's text the first thing that springs to mind, quite honestly, is Erich von Daniken's 1968 book, "Chariots of the Gods?," and the several hours of my life that I will never get back for having watched so many of those late night documentaries on the History Channel about UFO's and ...read more

    All of us need to hear God’s love in a fresh way. Some say they do not want an encounter, but they do. Some do not expect anything new. Some are just past their first thrill of knowing Christ. Some have never exercised faith. Christ waits to receive

    Just about everybody ought to get married, at least once. There’s nothing quite like it in all the world.

    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

    God’s mercy will block your path, speak through unlikely voices, and stop you before you destroy yourself — if you’ll listen.

You know that calm, polite voice that starts out helpful but eventually sounds like it’s losing patience? > “In two hundred feet, turn left.” “Recalculating.” “Make a U-turn. Make a U-turn.
