Cornerstone Church

Knowing God Personally | God With Us - Week 2 - December 11, 2022 - Scott Savage with Jake Downing

Are you where you thought you'd be this Christmas season? Are you where you wish you were? The truth is God can only meet us where we are, not where we wish we were. And once we get honest with God and ourselves about where we are, we may find God surprising us and coming near us. In this message, Scott Savage kicks off our God With Us series by talking about where God meets us. He also sits down...

In this message, Tim Jacobs, friend of Cornerstone and EFCA West District Superintendent, unpacks our church value - Submitting to Scripture. Tim tal...

Practicing Unity in a Divided World

What Will You Remember? - Week 10 - A Living Hope in a Hostile World

Why should we care about humility? Join as we look at 1 Peter 5:17.

Expectations are important. They set us up for amazement or discouragement. They shape our perceptions and they even influence the way we relate to God. In this message, Pastor Scott Savage invites us to reset our expectations, so that suffering can draw us closer to God rather than driving a wedge between us and God. Join us in 1 Peter 4:12-19 as we see how we can encourage each other when we fin...

When it comes to building a lego set, a home, or a life, the model you choose shapes what you build. As followers of Jesus, we aren't simply looking to Jesus as our savior. We're also looking to Jesus as our model for healthy relationships. In this message, Pastor Scott Savage invites us to consider how following Jesus as our model impacts how we relate to others.

We're quick to label something as "this" OR "that." But, many times, the truth lies more in the AND. The book of 1 Peter is a book about suffering AND it is also a book about hope. In this message on 1 Peter 4:1-11, Pastor Scott Savage invites us to see how our adversity is also an opportunity when God's grace is at work in our lives.

One of the most famous failures in Scripture occurs when Peter denies that he even knows Jesus. So, what happens when Peter encourages followers of Jesus to be share the hope they have in Jesus? Pastor Scott shares the answer to that question as he continues our series, A Living Hope in a Hostile World.

Life is full of awkward and uncomfortable moments. These moments are the worst. But here's the thing - If you refuse to do something that might lead you to looking or feeling awkward or uncomfortable, you’ll never grow. So, if you want to grow, you're going to have to get uncomfortable. In this message, Pastor Scott Savage share from 1 Peter 3:1-12 about 3 uncomfortable callings for wives, husband...

Being Holy in Hard Times - Week 4 - A Living Hope in a Hostile World

There are a lot of problems facing us. It seems like the last few years have been a never-ending stream of challenges. The book of 1 Peter honestly speaks to those problems that gives us a lot of hope. But, that hope doesn't mean the problems are about to magically go away. Jesus doesn’t promise to lower the hostility around us. Instead, Jesus invites us to increase the maturity within us. In this...

Do you have a hard time believing the Bible? Do you have a hard time believing verses about who God says you are? Even if you could believe what God says it true, what difference would that make? In this message, Pastor Scott Savage continues this series of messages on 1 Peter by teaching on 1 Peter 1:13-25. He shares the four things we would do if we lived out who God says we are.

Have you ever discovered something you wish you didn’t know? Stumbled into something or had some sort of challenge forced upon you, only to wish that difficult calling had fallen to someone else? Living as a follower of Jesus in these times can feel like one of those moments. As our culture becomes more hostile and we face all sorts of modern challenges, how do we find hope? In this message, Pasto...

Shortage Week 3 - God’s Plan for Managing Money

Shortage Week 2 - The Path to Financial Freedom Begins Here

All of us heard things about money growing up. We learned things ourselves. And we had to navigate hard times. In that process, we developed stories we believed about money. The question is, though, whether or not the story you’re telling is helpful. In this message, Scott Savage kicks off our our new series on money by talking about the broken stories we believe about money and what happens when...

Is there an area of your life where you feel out of control? An area where you feel shame or defeat for your struggles?

Can you make it in this world if you are gentle? Won't you get walked all over? Is that a virtue worth aspiring to today?

For people who are not naturally gentle, he helps us see how God can bring gentleness to life in and through us.

"God, you want me to do what? You want me to go where? You think I can overcome these obstacles? You think I can face these fears?" If you ever feel like faithfulness is beyond you, then you are not alone! In this message, Pastor Scott Savage continues our series on the Fruit of Spirit by talking about God's faithfulness to us and how He brings faithfulness to life within us.

Is goodness something we define for ourselves or is goodness defined outside of us? In this message, Pastor Scott Savage shares from Titus 3:4-8 about how God defines goodness, how we become good, and how we were created to do good in the world. This message is part of a series of messages in summer 2022 about the Fruit of the Spirit, described in Galatians 5:22-23.
