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 [...]
“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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]

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 [...]
On Tuesday, Jesus has reentered the city and is continuing to teach as the time for Passover and the sacrifice of the lamb is quickly approaching.
Today, only a quick note. Take some time to read chapters 22 and 23 in Matthew. These are words and teachings that Jesus was pressing into people as He was [...]
