Cornerstone Church

Cornerstone Church is different in all the best ways. Our Ministry Partners, our culture and DNA, our methodology for how we live out the Kingdom of God…it’s just different . And honestly? We think Northeast Ohio could use a whole lot more “different.” That’s why we have a vision to see the influence of our church grow exponentially . We want more and more people to experience how Jesus changes ev...

​​Our culture is filled with political tension and division, and it’s so easy to get caught up in the noise. But as followers of Christ, we have to rise above it. We must remind ourselves that Jesus is our true King, and He has ushered in a new kingdom—the Kingdom of God. That truth? It should shape the way we view leadership, voting, and our unity during this season. Followers of Jesus—we need to...

Gather in close and draw near to the flame, For the shadows whisper a secret name! In the darkness deep the truth takes flight From the Holy Book, to go haunt the night! We'll speak of tales where fear resides, In silent rooms where evil hides! Of temptations and tombs and ghouls and ghosts; of a valley filled with a decaying host! These stories are old and from ancient days; They hold warnings de...

The Apostle Peter—one of Jesus’ closest friends and first disciples—knows his time is short. He is living in Rome, and Peter knows that the authorities have it out for him. With his days numbered, Peter decides to send out one, final letter to the churches he’s been leading. And, in the words of the Emergency Broadcasting System? “This letter is not a test.” Peter is writing about matters of spiri...

Our faith contains countless paradoxes—things that seem at odds with one another. You want to save your life? Lose it. You want to be the greatest? Become the least. You want knowledge? Approach God like a child. This “paradoxical” nature is a unique aspect of the Christian faith. And there’s one paradox in Scripture that is very unique because it is true from two seemingly-contradictory perspecti...

It’s August 1980 in South Akron. A small-but-growing group of Jesus-followers call themselves “Cornerstone Church.” They rally behind the mission of helping people find the Father, a family, and a fulfilling future. And that’s exactly what they do...day after day, week after week, month after month, year after year. But as Cornerstone advanced the Kingdom of God, a perfect storm of opposition soug...

There is no organization on Earth quite like the Church. We’re all a part of the same body of believers, and yet individual local churches can be so wildly different. How is it supposed to be? What are we supposed to do? What did Jesus really have in mind for the Church when He started it 2,000 years ago? Believe it or not—what we believe about the Church matters. The Bible. A collection of 66 boo...

Our beliefs shape our world. What we think about different things—relationships, work, money, health, friendships—eventually manifests in how we act. This fact is never more evident than when it comes to our faith. What you believe about God? It matters. What you believe about the Bible? It matters. What you believe about the Church? It matters. All of those beliefs will eventually mold and shape...

Have you ever heard the phrase: “There are two sides to the same coin?” This expression hits on the idea that the same coin isn’t exactly the same coin…one side is different from the other. It’s no secret why this is such a well-known phrase—because we all know how accurate it is! You can experience a situation and walk away feeling frustrated and encouraged at the same time. And so it is with get...

Every now and then, a question pops up on viral social media posts: “Would you rather get $10 million now—or go back to being a kid, but with all the knowledge you’ve gained so far?” It’s amazing how many people would forgo the money for a chance to instead “...know then what I know now.” It just goes to show, you can’t put a price on wisdom—especially when it comes to some of the most difficult-t...

God is not confined by time or culture. The issues we deal with today? God has something to say about them. And one of the most crucial issues in our culture? An issue where we need God’s help like never before? Mental health. Anxiety, depression, panic attacks…we can’t just “pray away” these things. They are deep issues that require a deep conversation. Every now and then, a question pops up on v...
