Decision Over Chaos | Issues
Chaos rarely starts with one huge mistake. More often, it grows out of drifting, rushing, and making decisions without clarity. We’re talking about “direction over chaos” and the difference it makes when we go to God for guidance before we choo...
Peace Over Anxiety | Issues
Anxiety can feel like you’re being responsible, but it often works like a leak, quietly subtracting from your sleep, your focus, and your joy. We sit down and talk through a simple but hard promise: the Prince of Peace wants you to experience p...
Jesus is the Cornerstone
A single misstep by the pool becomes a spiritual gut-check: when life blindsides you, do you stumble over Jesus or step onto him? We open 1 Peter 2 and keep coming back to one anchor statement that clarifies everything: Jesus is the cornerstone...
40 Years of Faithfulness
A single sentence spoken at the right time can ripple through generations, and Pastor Jeff Peterson brings receipts. As we celebrate 40 years at Cornerstone Christian Center, he shares a stunning “God wink” that links a bedside prayer, a World ...
Letters: 2 Timothy 3
Ready is not a personality trait, it’s a practiced way of living. We open up 2 Timothy and take Paul’s charge seriously: preach the word, be ready in season and out of season, and keep your faith when the moment is inconvenient. Along the way, ...
Letters: 2 Timothy 1
Fear loves to impersonate reality. It tells you you’re stuck, too broken, too tired, too far gone, and it keeps you from the life God is actually inviting you into. We lean hard into 2 Timothy 1:7 and get specific about what replaces fear when ...
Letters: 1 Timothy 4-6
One wrong turn in the water can feel like the right direction until you run out of breath. That story becomes a mirror for spiritual life as we open 1 Timothy and talk about deception, truth, and the quiet ways we can drift without noticing.
Letters: 1 Timothy 1
Letters can feel quaint until you realize they once carried hope across oceans and silence across years. We start with a story that makes that real: an elderly woman in her 80s whose arthritis kept her from writing to a friend in Ireland, until...
Letters: 2 Thessalonians 2 & 3
Panic spreads faster than truth, especially when it comes wrapped in spiritual language. We pick up in 2 Thessalonians and talk about what happens when a church gets rattled by claims that the day of the Lord has already arrived. Barb opens wit...
Letters: 2 Thessalonians 1
Fireworks fade fast, but the questions linger: what does freedom actually require, and what does it cost to keep your faith when the current is moving the other way? We start with something simple and surprisingly powerful, the practice of writ...
Letters: 1 Thessalonians 5
Fear is loud, persuasive, and weirdly familiar, especially when we’re trying to look brave. We start with three words that set the tone for everything that follows: aware, awake, anointed. Then we get honest about the kind of fear that doesn’t ...
Letters: 1 Thessalonians 3 & 4
Some Sundays don’t feel like inspiration, they feel like endurance. We start with a simple but challenging truth from Paul’s letter to the Thessalonians: trials aren’t a glitch in the Christian life, they’re part of it. Angie Ortiz shares how s...
Letters: 1 Thessalonians 1 and 2
A real letter used to feel like an event. You waited for it, you opened it carefully, and you could almost feel the person behind the words. We start there with a story about the last generation before phones and what it was like to get a handw...
Walking In The Spirit | Pentecost
Getting lost is one thing. Realizing you are alone, unsure which direction is safe, and too far in to pretend it is fine is something else. Pastor Angus opens with a seventh-grade Boy Scouts story where one wrong turn at a fork turns a hike int...
Fire Of The Spirit | Pentecost
Pentecost isn’t a church calendar trivia fact, it’s a moment that confronts a question most of us live with every day: where does real power come from when life gets messy? We start with Jesus’ words in John 14: “I am the way, the truth, and th...
Freedom of the Spirit | Pentecost
Freedom gets sold to us as independence, but Scripture paints a sharper picture: “Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.” We sit with 2 Corinthians 3 and ask a practical question that hits home fast: what if the choices we call “fre...
Be Still And Know
You can love Jesus, serve hard, and still feel empty if you never slow down long enough to hear Him. On Mother’s Day, we share moving stories from a missions trip to Iceland, where local churches unite, a women’s conference opens doors, and sev...
Rise Up | Moxy
A broken wall can feel like a broken promise, and that’s exactly where Nehemiah’s story hits home. We lean into the moment he hears Jerusalem is in trouble and shame, and we ask the same question many of us carry: what do you do when your faith...
Stand for the Lord | Moxy
When pressure turns up, most of us don’t fail in one dramatic moment, we drift through a hundred small compromises. We wanted to talk about the kind of courage that doesn’t drift. We call it moxy: grit, determination, and the willingness to sta...
Praise the Lord | Moxy
Some days call for more than optimism. They call for moxie, the kind of courage that keeps moving when the plan falls apart, the money feels tight, the diagnosis lands, or the future turns foggy. We’re chasing a simple but difficult practice: p...
Face the Fear | Moxy
The world trains us to blend in, stay quiet, and keep everything under control. We’re going after a different kind of courage: moxie as holy grit, the stubborn decision to trust God when fear is shouting and the future feels unknown. Pastor J g...
Easter 2026
“He is risen” is not a holiday slogan for us, it’s the announcement that Jesus is alive and the grave does not get the last word. We start with the core message of Resurrection Sunday and the hard contrast that every other tomb stays full while...
Palm Sunday
Palm Sunday starts with a word a lot of us sing but don’t always understand: Hosanna. We slow down and name it plainly, “save us, we pray,” because that’s the heartbeat of real worship and real Christian faith. If you’ve ever kept Jesus at arm’...
