    When I was growing up, I always had a lot of friends. Some of these friends were really close. They were the ones that I spent most of my time with and loved being around. Some of these friends were more casual. They were the ones that I saw at school and occasionally hung out…

    Communication is seldom noticed, until it fails. Last week, the staff of Cornerstone went on a staff retreat. One of the things we discussed was communication between the staff.

    Your greatest worry has the potential to be some of God’s greatest work! That thing that you’ve had on your mind. That thing that you’ve been scared to tell anyone else.

    I write on this blog about everyday. Sometimes, it may seem like I don’t struggle… Like I don’t face daily temptation, Like I never have a weak moment, Like I never fall, Like I never fail. To assume that though, would be a horrible mistake. I fall, I fail, I doubt, Just like you. I’m…

    I’ve always been intrigued by the victorious life. In fact, I don’t think God’s pleased when we live a life that says we’re doubtful about the end. Instead, I think God wants us to live a victorious life that proves the end is already in hand. Too often we (Christians) live a timid, defeated life.…

    For as long as I can remember, I’ve battled a weight problem. As a 10 year old boy, I can remember knowing that I wasn’t happy with the way I looked and felt. In fact, I can distinctly remember thinking time and time again as I looked in the mirror, “I don’t feel like a…

    Leaders…Lead. Leaders are followed. Leaders make decisions. Leaders demonstrate the right way. Leaders step out first. Leaders dare to be different. Leaders set themselves apart. Leaders aren’t afraid of crunch time. Leaders don’t follow the crowd. Leaders don’t always choose easy. Leaders choose right over popular. Leaders are willing to invest in people. It sounds…

    Why do you do what you do? Is it because you have to? Is it because it’s expected by those around you? Is it because you know nothing else to do? Is it because it’s comfortable? Is it because it’s easy? Is it because it’s all that’s available? Is it because it pays the bills?…
