Cornerstone wants all people to experience the joy and peace of union with Jesus Christ. We pray that as we follow Jesus together, we will all become more like Him. To that end, we strive to create ministry environments where the means of grace are faithfully administered and accessible to God’s people and thus favorable for spiritual growth. In studying the Bible’s teaching and the historic tradition of the church, we began to see a collection of spiritually helpful practices—eight in total—that are favorable for spiritual growth. As you might expect, many of the eight practices we are already cultivating at Cornerstone, but there are several more we would like to see take shape in the days and years to come. Rest easy, you do not need to begin all eight practices at once. Start by choosing one or two that are new to you and letting these be your focus. Let us help you get started as an individual or a family.

Common worship. We gather together weekly to worship God and, through His Spirit, re-centering our lives in Jesus Christ.
Education. We learn together and wrestle with all that the Bible's message means for our everyday lives.
Small groups. We meet with other Christians, becoming friends and helping each other to live as disciples of Jesus Christ.

Reading the Bible daily and prayer. We read through all of God’s Word together as a church, allowing this to change us and help us grow. In prayer, we commune with God, bringing each day’s joys and needs to the God who cares for us.
Sabbath. We rest from our work and celebrate our new life in Jesus Christ.
Spiritual Mentoring. We intentionally pursue conformity to Jesus Christ in every area of life through the means of a gospel friendship. 
Retreats. We pull away for a short time to reflect upon our relationship with God, with ourselves, and with others in order to reenter life
Service. As we serve others, we also grow in our discipleship as Christians. This service can take as many forms as we have opportunities to see where others need help.
