Our community

With small groups

Connect with others through small groups and pastoral care. Tell others about Jesus by inviting friends who are ready for good news to a small group or weekend services.

At Christ the Cornerstone Church, we use a variety of methods to communicate. But to us, the message we communicate is unchanging. These truths - what we believe - are so important to us that we endeavor to reflect them in all that we say and do.

GOD

We believe God is one, true, holy, eternally existing in three equal persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. He has demonstrated his love, power, wisdom, and goodness by creating the world and everything in it.

THE BIBLE

The Bible is the inspired Word of God, revealing the will of God. These writings are without error and the final authority on all matters of faith and how it is lived out. The Bible is the sole basis of our beliefs.

MAN

Humanity was created good and upright in the image of God. Because all humans have sinned and are separated from God, our only hope is in Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Every person is God’s masterpiece, uniquely created with a purpose that can only be fulfilled through a personal relationship with Jesus.

JESUS

Jesus Christ came to the earth, was born of a virgin, fully God and fully man, and lived a life without sin. He voluntarily gave his life on the cross as the sacrifice for our sin, bringing God’s plan of forgiveness and new life to all who trust in him. After his death, Jesus rose from the dead and ascended into heaven as the intercessor between God and humanity. He promises to return to earth to fulfill the eternal plan of God.

SALVATION

All of scripture points to God’s plan of salvation. Salvation is a free gift from God available to everyone who accepts it. Through Christ’s death and resurrection, God provides new life for the spirit, healing for the soul and body, and forgiveness of humanity's rejection of God through sin.

HOLY SPIRIT

The Holy Spirit is God's personal presence in the world, convicting every person of their need for Jesus. Believers receive the gift of the Holy Spirit at the time of salvation, helping them live a life of Christ-like character. The baptism of the Holy Spirit empowers believers to be a witness to those around them and brings a deeper realization of their spiritual gifts and the boldness to pursue them. The spiritual gifts that were evident in the early Church are available for us today to encourage and build the Body of Christ.

ETERNITY

God created humanity to exist forever. Humanity will either spend his eternal existence with God through forgiveness and salvation or separated from God because of sin. Eternal union with God is heaven. Eternal separation from God is hell. Heaven and Hell are real places of eternal existence.

THE CHURCH

We believe the Church is vital to bringing hope and healing to the world. The local expression of the Church is wherever believers gather for worship, prayer, fellowship, and the teaching of God’s Word; observe baptism and communion as established by Jesus Christ, and serve others with their God-given talents and gifts. The church is a body of diverse people, each one with a story, called to work together in love and unity to announce God's good news, teach others to follow Jesus, and heal all kinds of sickness and disease for the ultimate purpose of glorifying God.
