Cornerstone exists because of Jesus. We'd love to show you how your story matters to him, and how his story matters for you.
The church isn't an organization or a building. The church is a family—God’s family, filled with redeemed sinners that are now his children because of Jesus.
Just like a vine grows best with a good trellis, our church family grows best with good programs. Our programs and ministries are tailored to support the community and mission God has given us.

Following Jesus: The Book of 1 Peter Relating Like Jesus 1 Peter 3:1-7
Peter wants us to live like Jesus—to be so free that we can love and serve others in any circumstance. Now he extends that principle into the realm of relationships by focusing in on the closest human relationship: marriage. We find in these commands to husbands and wives something freeing and empowering, not just for married couples but for all people. We are all called to trust in God as we give ourselves fully to others.
Application Questions
1. Think of ways you try to influence the people around you. Do you ever find yourself manipulating others? Do you ever find yourself leveraging the weakness of others? Why do you think that is? 2. What is it about the gospel that frees you from manipulating others and leveraging others? What is it about the gospel that leads you to use your power to serve others without fear? 3. What are some ways you can repent of your manipulation and leveraging and replace it with serving and trust in God?
