Podcasts about Cornerstone church

Cornerstone Church celebrates 30 years of God's faithfulness, tracing its remarkable journey from humble beginnings to community transformation. The story begins with Pastor Henry and Doris Hunkapiller's missionary work in Liberia, whose legacy continued through their daughter Georgie and her husband Pastor Artie Davis. Despite initial reluctance after previous church planting failures, God called them to start something different in Orangeburg. From a small gymnastics center to the Willington campus, and finally to the miraculous acquisition of the old Winn-Dixie building, God has consistently provided beyond human understanding. This legacy reminds us that we live in the shade of trees we didn't plant, and challenges us to continue building for future generations through faithful obedience to God's calling.

In Jeremiah 37–39, Zedekiah asks for prayer and asks for a word from the Lord, but still resists what God says. What does that reveal about the difference between wanting help from God and wanting lordship from God? K2. Zedekiah's real issue seems to be fear of people more than fear of the Lord. Where do you see that tension in your own life, and how does it shape the way you make decisions? K3. Jesus says following him means giving up your own way and taking up your cross. What does it look like, practically, to treat Jesus as King when his direction feels costly or confusing? Grow in groups G1. Jeremiah was trapped in prison, falsely accused, and largely alone, yet he kept speaking what God said. How can our church become the kind of place where truth is welcomed even when it is hard to hear? G2. Zedekiah kept asking Jeremiah for private counsel, but he never really submitted to it. What are signs that a person is listening to spiritual truth without actually obeying it? G3. Jeremiah 37-39 shows a pattern of people wanting the outcome of faith without the surrender of faith. How can we/our church help one another move from “God, help me” to “God, lead me”? Show up and serve S1. Ebed-melech steps in when others stay silent. What does his courage teach us about serving God in moments when the crowd is passive, afraid, or unjust? S2. Jeremiah's surrender looks weak from the outside, but the story shows it is actually the path of life. Where might serving faithfully feel costly now but produce life later? S3. What is one area where you/our church could respond this week with action instead of just agreement, especially when obedience might be uncomfortable or unpopular?

[Jeremiah 20:7-10] Grow in Groups G1 Jeremiah was a contemporary of prophets like Ezekiel and Daniel. How does knowing he was witnessing the literal breakdown of his civilization help us understand the "intensity" and "dread" in his writing? [Jeremiah 1:17-19] G2 The sermon mentions that Jeremiah tried to "wriggle out" of his calling due to his youth and lack of speaking ability. How does God's response to him change our perspective on our own perceived inadequacies? [Jeremiah 1:4-8] G3 Read the description of how an idol is constructed. Jeremiah uses "absurdity" to show that these gods are just wood, silver, and gold. Why do you think the people of Judah were so easily "worshipful" of something they saw their own cousins and neighbors making? [Jeremiah 10:3-9] G4 Discuss the "God Exchange" mentioned in the text. What does it look like practically to forsake a "spring of living water" for a "broken cistern"? [Jeremiah 2:11-13] G5 The sermon argues that there is no "neutral ground" in society—that even the "no god" worldview is a faith-based position. How does this challenge the way we interact with secular culture or songs like "Imagine"? [Jeremiah 10:2] G6 Jeremiah repeatedly speaks out loud about God's greatness, even when he is suffering. Why is the act of speaking truth back to God so vital for our own mental and spiritual endurance? [Jeremiah 10:6-7, 10] Show Up and Serve S1 Identify a "modern scarecrow" in your life—something that looks impressive and demands your attention but ultimately "cannot speak" or "do any good." What is one specific way you can "exchange" that idol back for the Living God this week?

In Part 2 of Ralph's conversation with Tim Goodman, the discussion moves from personal calling to the realities of leading through disruption, and rebuilding on the other side.Tim unpacks the deeper theological crisis behind the Methodist split, explaining why the issues went far beyond surface-level debates and struck at the core of Scripture, salvation, and the nature of truth itself. From there, he shares the behind-the-scenes story of stepping away from the United Methodist Church—navigating tension, uncertainty, and the very real cost of obedience.You'll hear how God led Tim to Cornerstone Church in Ohio in what can only be described as a perfectly timed landing, and how he began rebuilding a culture of disciple-making from the ground up. Alongside Ralph Moore, Tim walks through the practical steps they've taken to shift from stagnant small groups to multiplying, Scripture-centered “life groups” that are creating space for real growth and new people.This is a conversation about:Leading when everything feels uncertainMaking hard theological decisions with graceRebuilding a church culture around discipleshipAnd learning to adapt models without losing the missionIf you're trying to move your church from maintenance to movement, or figuring out how to lead after a major transition, this episode is full of practical wisdom and hard-won insight.

In this episode of the Ralph Moore Podcast, Ralph sits down with Tim Goodman, senior pastor of Cornerstone Church in Westchester, Ohio, for a deeply personal and timely conversation about calling, conviction, and the cost of leadership.Tim shares his powerful journey from a small, rural church upbringing to walking away from faith, to a life-altering encounter with God following two brain surgeries that brought him to complete surrender. Along the way, you'll hear how God rebuilt his faith, clarified his calling, and led him into pastoral ministry. Ralph and Tim also explore the broader upheaval within the Methodist movement, unpacking the theological tensions, leadership challenges, and difficult decisions that have shaped the formation of the Global Methodist Church. If you're a pastor, church planter, or leader facing hard decisions, this episode offers both encouragement and clarity. Tim's story is a reminder that God often does His deepest work through seasons of struggle and that faithful leadership is forged in the tension between grace and truth.

This episode opens with Candace welcoming pastor Francis Chan for the first of a six-week series built around his book Beloved and the theme of God's love. The two share history going back to Candace's teenage years at Cornerstone Church, and that context shapes the conversation from the start. Francis has written several books, including Crazy Love, and Beloved is the anchor for everything this season covers. A lot of this episode focuses on Francis's early life. His mother died when he was born, his father gave him up, and he was raised by his grandmother in Hong Kong before being returned to his dad at age five. Francis remembers arriving in a home where he felt like an interruption, not speaking English, with older siblings who didn't know what to do with him. His stepmother died in a car accident when he was seven, and his father died when he was twelve. Francis connects that history directly to the reason he wrote Beloved: accepting a holy, sovereign, judging God came naturally to him, but believing that God personally loved him was something else entirely. Candace comes to the conversation from a different starting point. Growing up with a loving earthly father, she says she absorbed God's love almost by default and never stopped to think too deeply about whether it was real or not. She reflects that believing something and actually sitting inside it aren't the same thing. Francis responds that this is its own kind of distance, and that he sometimes tells his own children he worries they'll miss out on the particular dependence on God that came from having no one else to rely on. The episode closes with a listener theology question from Vicky about Moses interceding when God threatens to destroy the Israelites. Vicky asks how a sovereign God who knows everything can be genuinely angry about things He already knew would happen, and whether Moses actually changed the outcome. Francis points to Isaiah 55, acknowledges the tension honestly, and draws out what the passage teaches about prayer, intercession, and how scripture uses narrative to communicate what neat answers alone can't.
