Cornerstone Church - Weekend Messages

Jesus's warning about the "unforgivable sin" has often been misunderstood, leaving many people with fear and uncertainty. In this message, we see that Jesus isn't describing a sin that's too great for His grace, but a heart that continually rejects the truth of the gospel. At the same time, He offers incredible hope: because of His sacrifice for us, forgiveness is available to everyone who turns to Him in faith. This week we are in...

In Matthew 12:1–21, Jesus confronts a kind of religion that had become more concerned with rules than with the heart of God. While the Pharisees used the Sabbath to place burdens on others, Jesus revealed that God's desire has always been to bring mercy, life, and rest. This week's discussion invites us to examine where legalism can quietly take root in our own hearts and to consider what it looks like to reflect the grace, t...

Following Jesus is the greatest invitation we’ll ever receive. He never promised an easy path, but He does promise to walk with us every step of the way. In Matthew 10:34–11:1, Jesus calls His disciples into a life of faithful trust—one where true life is found not in clinging to comfort, but in surrendering fully to Him. As we step into this week, let's consider: what would it look like to follow Jesus with whole...

Following Jesus often puts us at odds with the world around us, creating pressure to stay quiet, blend in, or compromise our faith. But Jesus is honest about this tension and reminds us that we are not alone in it—the Holy Spirit will strengthen and guide us when we face persecution. Even when our faith leads to misunderstandings or opposition, we can stand firm because Jesus has already walked the path of suffering before us...

This week, we see the disciples move from watching Jesus to being sent out by Him. The same Christ who looked at the helpless crowds with compassion still sends His people into everyday places with purpose and provision. The “harvest” is not somewhere far away—it is already woven into our routines, relationships, and everyday responsibilities. As we go, we’re invited to trust Him more than our own resources ...

In this week’s passage, Jesus challenges the assumptions of the religious leaders and reveals the heart of His kingdom. Rather than calling the righteous, He came for sinners, extending grace to those who were often overlooked and rejected. This message reminds us that following Jesus is more than simply adding Him to our existing lives—it means allowing Him to make us new. Together, let's consider where Jesus may be in...

Every person is carrying something. Some of us need faithful brothers and sisters to help bear our burdens. Some of us are called to come alongside others in their weakness. But the hope of this week's story is not ultimately the determination of four friends—it is the sufficiency of Christ. The Savior who forgives sins and heals the broken welcomes all who come to Him in faith, and no obstacle is greater than His power to sa...

In this week's passage, Jesus steps into darkness, chaos, and brokenness—and shows that even demons must submit to His authority. While the powers of evil recognize exactly who He is, the people of the region are forced to wrestle with a deeper question: will they value comfort and possessions more than the presence of Jesus? This passage reminds us that the kingdom of God is breaking into the world, bringing freedom, restora...

Storms will come—even when we’re walking faithfully with Jesus. In this week's passage, the disciples learn that trusting Christ means believing He is Lord not only over their daily needs, but also over every fear, uncertainty, and overwhelming circumstance. Whatever storm you’re facing today, remember: the same Jesus who calmed the sea is the same God we worship today. In the midst of the storms and swells of the...

Following Jesus is the greatest decision we can ever make, but it’s not the easiest one. In Matthew 8:18–22, Jesus reminds us that true discipleship requires surrender, obedience, and putting Him above the things that compete for our allegiance. Despite the hardships, we can rest knowing that whatever we give up for Christ is nothing compared to what we gain in Him. Join us as we explore what it means to follow Jesus&md...

Jesus didn’t avoid the broken, the unclean, or the overlooked—He moved toward them with compassion and authority. In Matthew 8, we see a Savior who not only has the power to heal, but the willingness to draw near to people in their deepest need. This week, we’re asking what it looks like to trust Jesus with the places in our lives that still need restoration and to reflect His compassion toward others. We can rest...

We all long for freedom, but not everything that promises it actually delivers. In Romans 6, we’re reminded that sin leads us into slavery, while Jesus leads us into true freedom and new life. Even in our ongoing struggle with sin, we can rest knowing that we're sustained by His faithfulness, not our own. As we walk by the Spirit, Christ will empower us to grow in holiness as we learn to live out the freedom we’ve been ...

This week we explore Christus Victor—the truth that Jesus has already won the victory over sin, Satan, and every spiritual power. Instead of ignoring, doubting, or obsessing over the supernatural, we’re invited to live with awareness, confidence, and hope in what Christ has done. Because of the cross, we don’t fight FOR victory—we fight FROM it! So where do you need to stand firm, push back, or simply rest i...

Happy Easter! The resurrection isn’t just a miracle—it’s proof that everything Jesus claimed is true and that His sacrifice actually worked. If He hadn’t risen, His death would be empty—but because He did, we know our sin has been fully paid for and every promise in Him is secure. That means we’re not just forgiven—we’re declared righteous, free to live from God’s approval inste...

Jesus doesn’t just call us to hear His words—He calls us to build our lives on them. The storms of life will undoubtedly come for all of us. When they do, they will expose what we’ve built our lives on, and only a foundation rooted in obedient trust in Christ will stand. This week, we’re challenged to move beyond simply agreeing with Jesus to actually living out what He says. What step is He asking you to ta...

Jesus begins to close the Sermon on the Mount with a clear invitation: choose the narrow path that leads to life, even when it’s difficult. A life built on His words is marked by selfless love, genuine obedience, and discernment in a world full of distractions and false voices. The question isn’t just what we hear—but what we do with it. This week, let's build onto the solid foundation of Jesus by living out love ...
