Cornerstone Church of Fergus Falls, MN - Sermon Podcasts

From Cornerstone's youth director, Ethan Townsend - on Matthew 6:9-13. Prayer is something God gives to us so that we can grow in our relationship with him. Do you have a right mindset toward prayer? How is your prayer life? ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From John 3:22-36. We are to believe in Jesus. The other option is to reject or disobey him. In this passage, John the Baptist sets a wonderful example of belief in Jesus and we consider what it means to accept and certify the message God gave us through his Son. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From John 3:16-21. God sent Jesus, not to condemn the world, but to save it. On our part, we are to believe in Jesus and come into the light. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From John 3:1-16. This passage is about being born again and having eternal life. In it is perhaps the most famous verse in the Bible, John 3:16. As we continue this series in the Gospel of John, we see specifically how important it is to believe  in Jesus. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From guest speaker Dan Schindler, an elder at Cornerstone. From the book of Daniel. Daniel lived a remarkable life, remaining faithful to the Lord and to his calling, even though he lived most of his life in exile in a pagan land. This sermon is an encouragement for us to remain faithful in a fallen world. ____________________________________________________________________________________________...

From John 2:12-25. In this story of Jesus clearing the temple, we see that Jesus' body is the temple. God desires that his people would be made right with him and would meet with him. The physical temple was a foreshadowing of how those things would happen through Jesus. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From John 2:1-11. After seeing Jesus turn water into wine, it says his disciples believed in Jesus. They saw something that helped them understand who Jesus is. We didn't see that miracle. But God has made himself known to us. Will we believe and follow? ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From John 1:35-51. In this passage, we read of disciples coming to Jesus. They are invited by Jesus to come and see and follow. Interestingly, those disciples also invited others to follow Jesus. We, too, are to be disciples who make disciples. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From John 1:19-34. John the Baptist gained quite a bit of recognition in his day. But his goal was to point to someone else, Jesus, the Lamb of God. May our lives, also, point to Jesus! ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From John 1:1-18. In this first sermon in our new sermon series entitled "Believe," we read some wonderful things about Jesus in the introduction to the Gospel of John. Will we believe in Jesus? If we say we believe in him, will we live according to his ways? ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From 1 John 4:7-21. Finishing up our "Heart Check" series (the one we started before Easter), we wanted to focus on God's love for us. As he fills us with his love, we can live in his love - loving him and loving those around us. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From Luke 24:46-53. Following up from the story of the resurrection of Jesus, the followers of Jesus were told they would be witnesses. Following the pattern of the Great Commission, those of us who know Jesus are to help others know Jesus.  ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From Luke 24:1-45. In this passage, we see three different groups of people struggling to believe in the resurrection, even though they had been told ahead of time. Similarly, we can struggle to believe what God has already told us. Let's listen to God and live accordingly! ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From John 12:12-16 and Psalm 118. The word "Hosanna" is a prayer that became a praise. Listen to this sermon as we consider some amazing connections between Palm Sunday and Old Testament prophecy from Psalm 118. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From Colossians 3:1-10. It's so easy to set our hearts and minds on the things of earth. Instead, we are to set our hearts and minds on things above, where Jesus Christ is, because he is our life. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From Luke 6:43-49. One of the ways we can check our hearts is by paying attention to what comes out of us - we bring good or evil out of the good or evil stored up in our hearts. May we be storing up the right things in our hearts! May we build rightly with Jesus as our foundation. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From 1 John 2:15-17; 1 Peter 1:13-16 and Luke 8:13-14. It's so easy to take our eyes off of Jesus and to walk according to the ways of this world. That kind of distracted walking can lead to idolatry.  ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From Mark 7:1-8 & Revelation 2:2-6. How's your heart doing with God? In this sermon series, we want to let God show us how near we are to him, how our love for him is doing. In the first part of this series, we look at two passages about people who had something wrong with their hearts. May we learn from them and may our hearts grow deeper in love with God! _______________________________...

From the book of Jude. God does amazing work to keep us in Christ. We are also to work to keep ourselves in the faith. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From 3 John. Similar to 2 John, truth and love are mentioned in 3 John. But this time, truth seems to be emphasized a bit more. Do we know how to embrace the truth? Do our lives bear witness that we're walking in the truth? Can we do so with love? ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From guest speaker George Townsend, an elder at Cornerstone Church. From Colossians 3:13, among other verses. We are to forgive as the Lord forgave us. God is merciful - he is pleased to forgive us. We should extend that grace to others. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

From 2 John. We are supposed to walk in both truth and love - not just one or the other.  ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

Do you know where you'll spend eternity? This question is super important. Thankfully, God wants us to have eternal life. Also, for those of us who have eternal life, he wants us to know that we have it. Do you know?  ______________________________________________________________________________________________________

Many people view Christianity according to the things it tells us not to do. Many people assume Christians are too judgmental. Are we being narrow-minded if we accept what the Bible says or if we follow Jesus? Jesus himself talked about a narrow road. In this sermon, we consider how God has graciously shown us the narrow road that leads to life. ____________________________________________________...

We all know what it means to face pain and suffering. Why do we have to?  Some people suggest that, if God is both strong and loving, he would take our pain & suffering away. In this sermon, I want to show you that God has a good reason for allowing pain & suffering. I also want to show you how God helps us in the midst of our pain & suffering. _________________________________________...
