Today we continue our series in the Gospel of Luke, one of four eyewitness accounts of Jesus' words and works. In them we learn of his life, death, and resurrection to rescue his people from among the neighborhoods of Seattle and the nations of the world. Today, Jesus turns to his disciples for a teaching moment. He helps us see that if we want to know the priorities of our heart, we should look at the priorities of our life. Then, ask, “Where is the Lord?” Audio | Notes | Luke 20:45 - 21:4

Join us as we dig deeper into last Sunday's sermon from Pastor Marcus Lane "The Gospel on Trial" and hear from Amy Duncan and Nate Zuellig on "Cornerstone". Digging Deeper Questions: How does the notion that "the word does the work" shift how you approach the calling to take part in God's mission?   Have you ever encountered the accusation or felt like Christianity is exclusive? How does the nature of grace help address this concern?   How might the life of the early church challenge you to grow in generosity? Scripture Reading: Acts 4:1-22, 32-37 1 And as they were speaking to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple and the Sadducees came upon them, 2 greatly annoyed because they were teaching the people and proclaiming in Jesus the resurrection from the dead. 3 And they arrested them and put them in custody until the next day, for it was already evening. 4 But many of those who had heard the word believed, and the number of the men came to about five thousand.   5 On the next day their rulers and elders and scribes gathered together in Jerusalem, 6 with Annas the high priest and Caiaphas and John and Alexander, and all who were of the high-priestly family. 7 And when they had set them in the midst, they inquired, "By what power or by what name did you do this?" 8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, "Rulers of the people and elders, 9 if we are being examined today concerning a good deed done to a crippled man, by what means this man has been healed, 10 let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead—by him this man is standing before you well. 11 This Jesus is the stone that was rejected by you, the builders, which has become the cornerstone. 12 And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."   13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated, common men, they were astonished. And they recognized that they had been with Jesus. 14 But seeing the man who was healed standing beside them, they had nothing to say in opposition. 15 But when they had commanded them to leave the council, they conferred with one another, 16 saying, "What shall we do with these men? For that a notable sign has been performed through them is evident to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and we cannot deny it. 17 But in order that it may spread no further among the people, let us warn them to speak no more to anyone in this name." 18 So they called them and charged them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus. 19 But Peter and John answered them, "Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God, you must judge, 20 for we cannot but speak of what we have seen and heard." 21 And when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding no way to punish them, because of the people, for all were praising God for what had happened. 22 For the man on whom this sign of healing was performed was more than forty years old.   32 Now the full number of those who believed were of one heart and soul, and no one said that any of the things that belonged to him was his own, but they had everything in common. 33 And with great power the apostles were giving their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace was upon them all. 34 There was not a needy person among them, for as many as were owners of lands or houses sold them and brought the proceeds of what was sold 35 and laid it at the apostles' feet, and it was distributed to each as any had need. 36 Thus Joseph, who was also called by the apostles Barnabas (which means son of encouragement), a Levite, a native of Cyprus, 37 sold a field that belonged to him and brought the money and laid it at the apostles' feet.

Today we have another Pulm PEEPs Pearls episode about a core critical care topic. Furf and Monty will be giving a high level overview of the use of steroids in sepsis including a review of the relevant literature and recent guidelines, and pragmatic bedside points. Contributors This episode was prepared with research by Pulm PEEPs Associate Editor George Doumat. Dustin Latimer, another Pulm PEEPs Associate Editor, assisted with audio and video editing. Key Learning Points Why Steroids in Sepsis? Steroids do not treat the infection — antimicrobials are always first and remain the cornerstone. The goal is addressing critical illness–related corticosteroid insufficiency (CIRCI), where cortisol production cannot keep up with the overwhelming inflammatory demand of septic shock. Hydrocortisone helps in two main ways: Blunts the dysregulated inflammatory response — tempers the excessive vasodilation and febrile response that drive harm beyond the infection itself. Restores vascular sensitivity to catecholamines — sepsis downregulates adrenergic receptors; steroids turn that responsiveness back on. Clinical takeaway: The first thing you notice is vasopressor weaning (or a bend in the escalation curve) — not a rapid improvement in fever or white count. Caveat: These trials predate modern sepsis phenotyping. None distinguish hyperinflammatory vs. hypoinflammatory responders — they treat all comers. The Evidence: Four Landmark Trials Every IM resident and critical care fellow will eventually journal-club these four. The most consistent signal across all of them is faster shock reversal and reduced vasopressor use; the mortality question remains unsettled. Trial (Year)NRegimenKey FindingAnnane (2002)~300Hydrocortisone + fludrocortisoneMortality benefit in ACTH non-responders; criticized methodology and messy cortisol-response testing; not cleanly replicated.CORTICUS (2008)~500Hydrocortisone aloneFaster shock reversal but no mortality benefit, regardless of cortisol responsiveness. Raised (later allayed) superinfection concern. Cornerstone for abandoning routine cort-stim testing.ADRENAL (2018)~3,800Hydrocortisone aloneFaster vasopressor weaning; no 90-day mortality benefit.APROCCHSS (2018)~1,200Hydrocortisone + fludrocortisoneMortality benefit at 90 days. Bottom line: Faster shock reversal is consistent. Mortality benefit appears in 2 of 4 trials (both used fludrocortisone) but not the others. A 2026 meta-analysis showed benefit for hydrocortisone + fludrocortisone vs. placebo, but not for hydrocortisone + fludrocortisone vs. hydrocortisone alone — suggesting hydrocortisone drives the main effect. Who Gets Steroids, and When? 2021 Surviving Sepsis: Consider steroids for norepinephrine or epinephrine ≥ 0.25 mcg/kg/min for ≥ 4 hours despite adequate resuscitation — a reasonable bedside trigger. Early 2026 update: Moved away from a specific numeric trigger — consider steroids when a septic patient is not responding well to vasopressors or has escalating requirements. Make a clinical decision. (Quality of evidence: low to moderate.) Go faster than the threshold when: Known/suspected adrenal insufficiency or home steroids, or florid pressor-requiring shock on arrival. A practical escalation sequence: escalating norepinephrine → add vasopressin (per VASST) → then add steroids if requirements keep climbing. Do NOT wait for an ACTH stimulation test. It does not reliably predict who responds and only delays treatment. Sepsis is an elevated-cortisol state but can dissociate ACTH and cortisol, and cortisol-binding globulin is depleted — the test is too messy to guide care. What to Give: The Regimen Standard dose: Hydrocortisone 200 mg/day, typically 50 mg IV Q6H. (Original trials often used continuous infusions, rarely used in the U.S.) Some start with a 100 mg bolus to gain control. Higher dose: If chronically on steroids / adrenally insufficient, consider ~300 mg/day (e.g., 100 mg Q8H). Fludrocortisone: Unsettled. The two mortality-benefit trials added it (50 mcg PO/NG/OG daily), but hydrocortisone already has mineralocorticoid activity and meta-analyses don't show added benefit over hydrocortisone alone. Most clinicians omit it — adding it is reasonable and safe, just be honest about the uncertainty. Duration & Tapering Typical course: ~7 days is most common. Trial practices varied (ADRENAL ~7 days; VANISH used a taper after 6 days; some continue until pressors are off). No taper needed. You do not need to taper for adrenal insufficiency after a short course — just stop. If pressors dramatically rebound, you can restart, but most patients have gained the benefit they'll get by day 7. Pitfalls & Safety Hyperglycemia: Expected and must be managed (monitor closely; insulin drip if needed). No signal for major DKA / severe complications in the trials. Superinfection / fungal infection: The most-quoted concern, but the overall literature does not show a convincing, statistically significant increase. Be disciplined about stopping on schedule. Muscle weakness: Steroids can worsen critical illness myopathy; a short 7-day course likely has limited effect, but be aware. Other: GI bleeding (follow general PPI prophylaxis guidance) and sodium disturbances (watch for hyper-/hyponatremia). Two things we know: (1) steroids shorten duration of vasopressor support, and (2) they are relatively safe in sepsis. Whether they improve mortality — and in whom — remains open. The Five Pulm PEEPs Pearls Mechanism: Steroids restore catecholamine vascular sensitivity and blunt dysregulated inflammation. The clinical target is vasopressor weaning, not infection treatment. Evidence: Faster shock reversal is the most consistent finding. Mortality benefit is seen in 2 of 4 trials but not the others — still controversial. Some patients likely benefit; we don't yet know who. Trigger: A practical 2021 threshold is levo/epi ≥ 0.25 mcg/kg/min for ≥ 4 hours. Newer guidance drops the strict number — make a clinical decision based on poor pressor response or escalation. Dose: Hydrocortisone 200 mg/day (e.g., 50 mg Q6H). Adding fludrocortisone mirrors two trials, but meta-analyses find no benefit over hydrocortisone alone. Safety: Steroids appear safe in sepsis. Monitor and treat hyperglycemia; no marked increase in superinfection.

Aaron Darlington • Genesis 1:1–50:26 • Cornerstone

If God is hospitable, then we as the Church must be about extending his hospitality to the world. As we show hospitality to others in service of our Lord, He lovingly gifts us with further revelation of Himself. ^^^^^^^In Christ. In Community. In Lebanon.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.cornerstonelebanon.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube LivestreamThe Scriptures of both the Old and New Testaments (66 books) are the unique, divinely inspired, authoritative word of God that came through human agents under God's providence. Its primary purpose is to make us wise for salvation through faith in Jesus Christ (2 Timothy 3:15), who is the ultimate revelation of Eternal Life that the Scriptures testify about (John 5:39; Luke 24:25-27).

The Cornerstone and His Stones

1 Peter 2:4-10 | Living Hopef or Exiles, Part 5 | 6/14/2026 | Pastor Matt Jones. In this powerful passage, Peter reminds us that God is doing something far greater than we often realize. Through Jesus Christ, the Living Stone and Cornerstone, God is building His people into a spiritual house, a royal priesthood, and a people for His own possession. Though we may sometimes feel weak, unfinished, overlooked, or discouraged, Peter reminds us that the Master Builder is still at work.

Episode Overview In this solo episode, John Kitchens breaks down the eight foundational cornerstones that have shaped his coaching philosophy and leadership approach. Whether you're leading a real estate team, coaching clients, running a business, or simply looking to become a better leader, these principles provide a framework for creating trust, accountability, growth, and transformation. John shares the same coaching fundamentals he wishes he had learned a decade earlier and explains why leadership is less about having all the answers and more about helping people uncover their own. From creating awareness and eliminating limiting beliefs to building accountability and confidence, this episode is packed with practical leadership tools that can be applied immediately. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Cornerstone #1: People Can Figure Things Out Why great coaches believe people are naturally creative, resourceful, and capable of solving their own challenges when given the right awareness and support. Cornerstone #2: It's Always Layers Deeper How surface-level problems rarely represent the real issue and why leaders must learn to identify the root cause beneath behaviors, emotions, and reactions. Cornerstone #3: Collaborative Conversation The importance of defining the type of conversation you're having and creating alignment through active listening and meaningful dialogue. Cornerstone #4: Agreements vs. Expectations Why expectations create frustration and how clear agreements eliminate misunderstandings and strengthen accountability. Cornerstone #5: Clarity How clarity is created by expanding capacity while eliminating the limiting beliefs and stories that hold people back. Cornerstone #6: Commitment to Confidence Why confidence isn't something you're born with—it is built through commitment, courage, capability, and consistent action. Cornerstone #7: A Life of Accountability How taking ownership creates freedom, growth, and stronger leadership while eliminating excuses and victim thinking. Cornerstone #8: Always a Work in Progress Why perfection is the enemy of progress and how embracing continuous growth leads to long-term success. Key Takeaways Leadership and coaching are built on trust, respect, and mutual commitment. People are more capable than they often realize. Awareness is the first step toward meaningful change. Every challenge has a deeper root cause waiting to be uncovered. Clear agreements outperform unspoken expectations every time. Confidence grows through commitment and action. Accountability is one of the highest forms of leadership. Progress beats perfection. Great leaders focus on developing people, not controlling them. Coaching is about guiding the hero of the story—not becoming the hero yourself.

Is higher education facing a credibility crisis? In this episode of Main Street Matters, Elaine Parker sits down with Dr. Gerson Moreno-Riano, President of Cornerstone University, to discuss Harvard's controversial decision to cap A grades, the growing problem of grade inflation, declining public trust in colleges, and how artificial intelligence is transforming education. Dr. Moreno-Riano explains why grade inflation may be undermining the value of college degrees, how an entitlement culture has impacted academic rigor, and why universities must focus on preparing students for careers and life—not just handing out diplomas. The conversation also explores AI's role in education, workforce readiness, soaring tuition costs, and how innovative institutions like Cornerstone are adapting to the future.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today we continue our series in the Gospel of Luke, one of four eyewitness accounts of Jesus' words and works. In them we learn of his life, death, and resurrection to rescue his people from among the neighborhoods of Seattle and the nations of the world. Today, Jesus' enemies try to trap him yet again. This time they reach for a question about the resurrection. Jesus’ response is a powerful comfort: Our God is not God of the dead, but of the living. Audio | Notes | Luke 20:27-40

Read OnlineJesus began to speak to the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders in parables. “A man planted a vineyard, put a hedge around it, dug a wine press, and built a tower. Then he leased it to tenant farmers and left on a journey. At the proper time he sent a servant to the tenants to obtain from them some of the produce of the vineyard.” Mark 12:10–12Today's Gospel takes place during the Passover at the Temple in Jerusalem, just days before Jesus' Passion and Death. The chief priests, scribes, and elders of the people were outraged and wanted to put Jesus to death, but they feared the people who were hanging on His every word.In today's parable, the “vineyard” is a biblical metaphor for Israel. The Prophet Isaiah chastised the people of Israel for being like a fruitless vineyard, and Jesus' parable would have been immediately understood by His audience as a reference to that prophecy (cf. Isaiah 5:1–7). Fearlessly yet mercifully, Jesus brings this metaphor to life, applying it directly to Israel and the religious leaders who were present and plotting His death.Jesus' parable teaches that God is the owner of the vineyard and has provided everything necessary for it to flourish: the hedge for protection, the wine press for fruitfulness, and the tower for vigilance. These symbolize God's providence, blessings, and the spiritual resources given to His chosen people to bear fruit. The tenant farmers, to whom the vineyard is leased, represent Israel's leaders, who were entrusted with shepherding God's people.The servants sent by the owner symbolize the Old Testament prophets, whom God sent to call the people of Israel to repentance and fidelity. These prophets were often rejected, mistreated, or killed by Israel's leaders—a sobering reminder of humanity's resistance to God's call throughout history, and our resistance to His grace today.The beloved son represents Jesus Himself, sent by the Father in a final appeal for repentance. However, the tenants of Israel—now referring to the chief priests, scribes, and elders before Him—plot to kill the son, mistakenly believing they can maintain their control over the Jewish people. Their envy and pride blind them to their God-given responsibilities within the community and their duty to accept Jesus as the Messiah.Though tensions were high and anger filled the hearts of the religious leaders, Jesus spoke boldly. While the people were amazed at His authority and teaching, they were likely uncertain and fearful of what might happen next.Most people in Jesus' position, risking their lives as our Lord was, would quickly become worried for their own safety. Jesus was not. He knew the Father's will and the eternal value that would come from His Passion and Death. For that reason, He quotes Psalm 118:22–23: “The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone. By the LORD has this been done; it is wonderful in our eyes.”Jesus knew that He was about to be rejected: betrayed, falsely accused, arrested, tortured, and killed. Yet He also knew that He was the fulfillment of Psalm 118. He was the “stone” that, once rejected, would become the “cornerstone” of the Church and the New Covenant of grace. With this divine hope and mission in mind, Jesus didn't run and hide; He confronted rejection directly. He knew that His rejection would transform the worst—the murder of the Son of God—into the best—salvation for all who believe in Him and repent. Reflect today on Jesus' courage during that sermon as He foresaw all that would unfold that week. While we might expect such courage from the Son of God, He invites us to imitate Him. Every evil that befalls us has the potential, through grace, to become part of that cornerstone. As members of Christ's Body, the Church, we are called to courageously allow grace to transform our own rejections and sufferings in Christ. In doing so, the foundation of Christ's Church continues to be made manifest in our world today through us. My Lord, the Cornerstone of the Church, You willingly accepted and endured rejection, transforming it into the means of our eternal salvation. Grant me the courage to not only imitate You but to embrace and share in Your rejection. May my own experiences of rejection be transformed by grace into a foundation for faith in our world today.

The call on Christians today, the call on our very community, is a sort of resistance. The same sort of resistance to the empire that we see in stories like that of Perpetua: “I cannot call myself by any other name than what I am—a Christian.” It is time to resist the Empire by embracing our identity. ^^^^^^^In Christ.

Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price are back with the annual Dynasty Nerds cornerstone draft. This episode looks at the 2024, 2025, and 2026 rookie classes in a Superflex tight end premium format to decide which young players dynasty managers should build around. Listen to This Episode: Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube The draft starts with Brock Bowers, Drake Maye, Caleb Williams, and Jayden Daniels as the top tier cornerstone options.

Adam Miller is one of more than a dozen candidates running for mayor of Los Angeles, but unlike some of his rivals, he comes from the worlds of tech and nonprofit management rather than politics. Miller founded the e-learning company Cornerstone and the homelessness prevention nonprofit Better Angels, and says he entered the race because he believes the city's failures — especially around homelessness — are fundamentally operational. In this conversation, Miller explains why encampments persist outside housing facilities, why affordable housing costs have spiraled, why shelters can sit half-empty, and why the city still lacks basic real-time data on homelessness. He also addresses the strange dynamics of a campaign unfolding in an attention economy where reality star Spencer Pratt has emerged as a serious contender. Miller argues that while he and Pratt often identify the same problems, he has the management experience to actually implement solutions. Guest Bio: Adam Miller, a tech entrepreneur and chief executive of the nonprofit Better Angels, is running for mayor of Los Angeles.

This morning, we continue our series in the prophetic book of Micah. Written to call God's people back to a right relationship with him, Micah's prophecies both warn about the consequences of sin, and put forward the hope of restoration by grace. In Micah 5, we get a greater glimpse of the Shepherd-King who delivers the remnant of his people. And because our Shepherd-King reigns in every age, we can daily depend on him today.

In this episode of the Raising Boys and Girls podcast, Dr. Ken Ginsburg explains that resilience is built through strong, loving relationships and introduces his “7 Cs” of resilience: confidence, competence, character, connection, contribution, coping, and control. Drawing from his work with adolescents, he encourages parents to guide rather than control their children so they can develop confidence, healthy coping skills, and a lasting sense of purpose, while emphasizing the importance of human connection in a technology-driven world. Resources mentioned: Lighthouse Parenting: Raising Your Child With Loving Guidance for a Lifelong Bond by Dr. Ken Ginsberg Center for Parent and Teen Communication - which provides guidance and resources for parents navigating adolescence and technology. . . . . . .  Sign up to receive the⁠ bi-⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠monthly newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to keep up to date with where David and Sissy are speaking, where they are taco'ing, PLUS conversation starters for you and your family to share!
