The Finesilvers // Seizing Opportunity

Who knew Mimi was allergic to gladiolas? Not Michael! They looked beautiful on the dining room table, and when Michael had to “get rid of them,” there had to be another alternative than the garbage. Then the idea struck like lightning. Why not give them to Debra, the Jewish woman who recently moved in next [...]

Second Saturday // An on Ramp

Perhaps you’ve heard of Second Saturday and you’re not really sure what it is. Second Saturday is what we refer to as on-ramp for joining Cornerstone in its mission to “Lead people to know and serve Jesus.” This is an opportunity for anyone really, not just members, to take four hours on the second Saturday [...]

Jesus Centered Missional Living

First, if you’re tracking with the conversation on the ‘missional church’ or ‘missional living’ then some/much of what you read below might be familiar to you. I’m just pulling together the conversations I’ve been having and the teachings that have been shaping me. Second, you might suggest, ‘missional’ is just a hip term for living [...]

Uganda // Info meeting

“Three years ago, Cornerstone received an invitation. It was an invitation to join a movement in Buloba, Uganda…We’re extending that invitation to you.”
Over the past few days, I’ve been editing some video that we were able to capture on our most recent trip to Uganda. The words above came from Josh Agerton, our pastor of [...]

First Saturday // Opportunity to Serve

Just wanted to throw out a quick reminder about First Saturday coming up this weekend. This is our opportunity as a local body of Believers to impact our own community through service projects. If we’re not careful, we can get into a routine of staying inside the comfort of our four walls, but Jesus commands [...]

Ashley Sisk // a missionary journey

I just wanted to take a moment to highlight one of our lead worshipers, Ashley Sisk, who will be headed to Africa tomorrow for several weeks of missional work. No need to try and tell the story from my perspective, here are her words:
I will be leaving this Thursday at 10 am for Tanzania! We [...]

Relationship Building // Key to Life

Originally this post was called “Relationship Building // Key to Leadership” and then I realized that was way too limited. But, I love leadership, following it, helping others become great leaders, etc., and that just tends to be my filter. What I wanted to share with you, however, goes further than leadership. It’s just some [...]

A Thank You // from the students

Just wanted to say a quick thank you to all of you who have chosen to make Cornerstone Church the place you call home or the place you have chosen to support with your prayers, presence, gifts and service.
Because of your support of this local body of believers we were able to meet a very [...]

Maundy Thursday // Day Five

I wrote these words down this morning about what I was thinking as we move towards the passover meal that Jesus would have taken with his disciples and the prayer in the garden shortly following:
I have always been intrigued with this idea that Jesus asked His disciples to come into the garden and pray with [...]

Wednesday // Holy Week // Day Four

This is Wednesday. Once again, Jesus moves into the city and teaches for the day.
Again, today I would challenge you to read in Matthew. Take chapter 24 today and live in the words of Jesus. Without a doubt, He feels the hour drawing closer and closer.
I can’t tell you how excited I am about tomorrow [...]
