Cornerstone Church - Atlanta, GA

What does God want from me? It's a question that shapes everything about our lives, but we'll never get to a meaningful answer if we start with trying to find out what actions God wants. Before we can give God what He wants, we have to know who God is. Service doesn't start with what you do, but who you worship.

There is a god-shaped vacuum in the heart of every man, and only God can fill it. The world that we live in all addresses this gap and attempts to fill it with things that fall very short of providing us with contentment. Our guest preacher William "Duce" Branch helps us see how God satisfies us completely in Christ.

Pastor Trip preaches on the importance of words in the life of the Christian. We're reminded that if we want to see the state of our hearts, the best way for us to do that is to look carefully at our words.

Pastor Trip preaches on the importance of music in the life of the Christian. When it comes to engaging with God, to ignore music is to accept unfaithfulness.

Pastor Trip preaches about what work should look like in the everyday lives of God people. The most important thing about our work isn't the particular type of work that we do, but our posture towards the work that we do.

Based on our past experiences with faith, frustrating times and failure, all of us have to come form certain conclusions about life. It's easy to come to expect certain things from the lives that we live. But if Jesus really did raise from the dead, then nothing about life as we knew it has to stay the same. We finish our Mark series by looking at how the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus changes life as we know it.

Jesus' words in Mark 13 to his disciples offer a great reminder for those of us that find ourselves either distracted by the impressive things of this life, or distressed by the depressing things we experience. We are best equipped to live in the here and now, not by looking to these things, but by looking forward. Jesus helps us see that we shouldn't put our trust in what's temporary, nor should we tremble in the face of trouble; rather, we should turn our eyes to Jesus and stay tuned for His return.

Being right about God isn't the same thing as being right with God. In Mark 12, Jesus helps someone who agrees with Him understand that He's looking for more than just right actions.

What good does your spiritual resume do when you stand before God? The bad news is that whatever you have falls short. The good news is, that Jesus can give you His.

As Jesus nears his death, he looks at two groups of people who are involved in religious practices. While outwardly both groups seem to be doing good, Jesus looks deeper and condemns one group while commends the other. What's the difference? Pastor Richard explains as he preaches from Mark 12.
