Send us Fan Mail What would you want to share with someone if you knew that your life may soon be over and that you wanted them to continue to do what was most important? Would talking about making disciples of Jesus be on your list?  Making disciples that are making disciples was on Paul's heart as he communicated what was most important to his son in the faith, Timothy. Being a disciple that makes disciples will require us to have great courage and commitment to rely on the power of the Holy Spirit as we face challenges and possible persecution as Paul did for the Gospel. Let's rely on God's Word and ask for the Holy Spirit's power to live the Gospel and make disciples. Email us at [email protected]

Send us Fan Mail We should GUARD THE GOSPEL with our lives!  This is the message of this text and in this message Pastor Joel describes the 5 ways that we, as a body of believers, Jesus's Church, should PROTECT the Gospel we were given by faith. We should HONOR God through our work, REFLECT God's character, use our WEALTH for ETERNAL PURPOSES, PURSUE GODLINESS not GREED, and PROTECT the Gospel with our lives. Living for Christ is not a casual walk in the park, it is a battle that we fight from Christ's victory by faith. Listen in and re-engage in the GOOD NEWS and recommit to live for the purpose for which Christ died: to save us so we could live our lives sharing His GOOD NEWS and MAKING DISCIPLES for HIS Kingdom!

Send us Fan Mail What THREE WORDS would you use to describe how the Church should live its life surrendered to Jesus Christ? In our sermon from 1 Timothy 5, the Apostle Paul describes how the Church should live: honoring one another, caring for one another, and living our lives in integrity as we follow Jesus Christ. This is easy to say and very hard to do.  We must rely on the power of the Holy Spirit as we apply God's Word to the very practical areas of our day to day lives. Is your heart surrendering to Jesus Christ?  As you respond to this message, ask God to give you the faith and grace to continually surrender so that we can be His Church who honors, cares, and lives a life of integrity for His Kingdom.

Send us Fan Mail Today, TRUTH is under attack.  There are many false teachers whose teaching is leading Christians away from the truth of the Scriptures. When God's Word get twisted and when living in the World gets hard, how do we remain FAITHFUL to God, the Church, and His Word? As you listen to this sermon, you will hear how we should GUARD the truth, pursue TRAINING in the truth, and stay DEVOTED to practically living based on the truth of Scripture. We need to stay connected with Jesus Christ our Lord through the TRUTH of SCRIPTURE as we live our lives together for Jesus Christ on our way home. Email us at [email protected]

Send us Fan Mail What are the roles that are essential for the church of Jesus Christ to have in order to be healthy, led well, and functioning the way God intended? Pastor Joel will break down the character qualities that God requires of His called ones that lead and serve His Church. When the Church is structured the way the God intended and His servant leaders are humbling obeying all that He has commanded, the Church can be all that God intended: the pillar and buttress of truth!  Let's listen to God's plan through His people and strive to be the kind of person that reflects the character of Christ in the way we live and serve His Church.

Send us Fan Mail Does God have good designs for order and structure in the family and in His church and as we gather to worship together today? Yes, He does!   Does our culture also have plans that misunderstand God's good structure and put forward a plan that doesn't agree with God's plan for leadership in the home and in the church? Yes it does.  So what will we do?  Is the Bible reliable or will we choose another source of authority for how God has designed leadership in the home and in His church? Far from being a message about women sitting down, God's challenge to men is to stand up in leading worship and prayer in your family and step into servant leadership as pastors and elders in the church. Listen in to this message as Pastor Joel carefully describes God's good plans from the Scriptures so that we can thrive in harmony and unity as His body on His mission. Email us at [email protected]

Send us Fan Mail Can we really trust the Bible?  Is it authoritative  for our lives today?  Can we live our lives based on its God-given truth?  Or is the Bible just a good book with some good suggestions, written by some good guys? In this sermon, Pastor Joel unpacks the heart of Paul's personal letter to Timothy, his son in the faith.  Not only is this a challenge and encouragement to Timothy, but this is an incredible challenge and encouragement to us today. Will we live our lives according to the Bible or according to our feelings or the ideas of our culture, which may seem right, but lead us far away from God's path of truth. God's Grace gives us great direction for life through His Word.  May you find God's truth today and respond in faith and obedience. Email us at [email protected]

Send us Fan Mail Praise and worship when the Body of Christ gathers each Sunday is powerful and transforms us. But what is involved in planning and executing praise as a Worship Team?  How do God's Word and the Holy Spirit work together with our Praise Team to bring us to the point of praise TOGETHER? Jake, Rachel, and Ryan, talk about the many parts and pieces of Praise based on our Cornerstone Worship Distinctives.  This document was crafted by our Elders through prayer, studying the Scriptures, and talking together. But what about Jake's story of coming to faith in Christ and being led to Cornerstone?  How do Rachel and the rest of the team work together?  How can we be better prepared for our Sunday morning praise time together as God's people, His church? Listen, watch, and then PRAY for God to powerfully work as we gather each week to LIFT JESUS UP in PRAISE so HE will draw all people to Himself in Salvation and Worship which will lead us all to live on His Mission of making Disciples.

Send us Fan Mail When we come to truly believe in Jesus as our Savior and Lord, everything changes!  We are brought from darkness into Jesus' GLORIOUS LIGHT. Salvation is more than just an emotional response.  The Gospel is a Transformational Reality that saves, keeps, and changes us. But what happens if we wander?  What happens if we become an atheist?  What happens if we pursue a life of partying?  Or what if we become influenced by family and ideologies to pursue a life a revenge, anger, and hatred? Dorothy and Carol share their story of how a meeting in Okinawa was a part of God's rescue work to bring a woman home to God and experience her true identity as a child of God in His Kingdom.   God wants us all to live out the REALITY of a life saved and transformed by Jesus who died and rose again for US!  So do you know Jesus?  Is He changing you?  Are you sharing your story of life walking by faith in Jesus?

Jason and Ryan talk about how the KEY DISCIPLINES of prayer, God's Word, praising Jesus, and time with other followers makes a big difference in how we're able to achieve God's mission of making disciples. We don't want to burn out while following God.  We want to keep burning bright in our relationship with Jesus.  Watch and listen to discover how we can re-ignite a passionate relationship with Jesus so that we can all mature in Christ and become followers that make followers to the ends of the earth!

Send us Fan Mail A life that is changed by Jesus through faith in Him is truly life at its best!   Our lives don't change simply by trying to modify our behavior from the outside.  When Jesus rescues you from your sins and gives you NEW LIFE, God begins the work of changing our lives from the inside out through His Holy Spirit that He gives to us. But how does this change begin and continue to happen in our lives practically?  Listen and watch as James and Kari describe how God was calling to them and pursuing them and keeps on continuing His work in their lives. How can we be an active part of God's plan to reach people with the Gospel?  How can we be a part of God's plan to make disciples and live as His family?  Listen, Watch, and then share this podcast to help share the Good News of life with Jesus.

Send us Fan Mail One of the best things we can do with our life is INVEST in the next generation! Especially when we can invest in the next generation that is FOLLOWING JESUS, we are doing exactly what Jesus wants us to do in making disciples that keep making disciples.

Watch and Listen to Eleah and Jessie as they discuss how they came to faith in Jesus, how God has lead them to keep growing and how this internship will play a part of that continual growth with Jesus Christ through the church and relationships with brothers and sisters in Christ!

Send us Fan Mail No one likes being stagnant.  The Status Quo.  The Same Old, Same Old. So what do you have when you aren't content with where you are in your relationship with Jesus or God's Word?  You have A HOLY DISCONTENT! Which is the title and focus of On Our Way Home today.  Listen and Watch as Roy, Jason, and Ryan really work to break down what a holy discontent is and what we should do about it. Are we truly living the life that Jesus has called, commanded, and empowered us to LIVE?  And if we're not...what is our first step in the right direction and who should we be hanging out with to see the change that God wants to give us? Share this podcast with anyone you know who's stuck in a rut in their walk with Jesus.  And ask God to help them have a holy discontent and obedient steps. Email us at [email protected]

Send us Fan Mail God has called each one of us to reach people by sharing His Good News!  But what are the key ways that God uses to work  in our friendships and relationships so that people will come to believe in Jesus as their Savior and follow Jesus as their Lord?

On today's podcast, we will grow to understand how studying the Bible together,  actively attending worship services, and growing deeper with a few men or a few women is incredibly important to KNOW and GROW in faith and relationship with God.
