    The baptism of Jesus has confused folks for 2000 years. Here are some thoughts on why Jesus asked to be baptized.

    The Baptism of Jesus This is week two of our Old School Sunday School series.

    There is a saying that goes: once saved always saved. But is there any truth to that?

    You cannot lose your salvation, but can you walk away from it? Beloved, when it come to the words: “DO NOT” many of us have a problem with those words. Do not touch do not go do not pass do not take do not give do not gossip. Many have no respect or fear and I mean are not afraid of ...read more

    As the church grows, there will inevitably be problems among people. How does the early church deal with these issues as they arise and what can today’s church learn in how to deal with these “growing concerns” in a way that will glorify God?

    Growing Concerns Handle Growing Concerns with Discernment (Acts 6:1-2) Handle Growing Concerns by Delegating (Acts 6:3-6) Delegate to those who are of good reputation Delegate to those who are full of the Spirit Delegate to those who are wise Handling Growing Concerns in a godly way Produces ...read more

    "Eviction Notice" Series

    Contributed by Tony Searles on Feb 18, 2015
     | 12,549 views

    This is the third in a six part Easter Series. The premise comes from Phil. 2:5-7 where it states that Jesus "emptied Himself, taking on the form of a bond-servant." We too need to be emptied so we can be filled with the fullness of Christ alone.

    TITLE: “Eviction Notice” #3 in the SERIES: “Empty” MAIN TEXT: Mark 14:32-42 Good Morning! Today, we are jumping into another lesson from our series, EMPTY! Remembering that the goal is all about being EMPTY, so you can be filled with the fullness of Christ! In this ...read more

    10 lepers were healed but only one returned. Are we part of the nine, or are we the One? Those who truly worship and serve the Lord are few in number compared to the many who are blessed.

    Where Are the Nine? Sunday, March 8, 2015 By Rev. James May The time was drawing near for Jesus to pay the price of our sin upon the cross. Yet even in his last days upon the earth, Jesus never lost purpose in everything that he did. His mind was never so preoccupied with the things that he was ...read more

    Whenever you attempt to do anything great for the glory of God, expect opposition. So when it comes, pray, proceed with the work, and protect yourself as much as possible.

    His Triumphal Entry

    Contributed by Shawn Miller on Mar 30, 2015
     | 8,159 views

    This passage in Luke 19 reads like a book of three chapters - The sacrifice of a colt, The praise of a crowd, and The weeping of Christ. Each point can be used as a sermon in itself.

    His Triumphal Entry Scripture: Luke 19:28-44 Introduction: A little boy was sick on Palm Sunday and stayed home from church with his mother. His father returned from church holding a palm branch. The little boy was curious and asked, "Why do you have that palm branch, dad?" "You see, when ...read more

    The thing about church is quite often people do not sacrifice much at all for it and then they get frustrated thinking it is the pastor or somebody’s fault when something is lacking or the problems appear but the reality they may be the problem!

    Sometimes people think that that there is no place for talk of money from the pulpit but the Scriptures speak about money, giving and generosity from beginning to end. This message looks at thoughts on generosity from the Book.

    This is week two or three of Money Month at Cornerstone, depending on how you count. Two weeks ago we at least gave a nod to the fact that this is the month that we deal with Money at Cornerstone when I preached on A Generous Easter, and then last week was our 20th Anniversary and I preached on ...read more
