    The Hardest Part of Obeying God

    How do you know when God is actually leading you, or when you're just hoping something you want is His will? And what happens when you know exactly what the right thing to do is, but everything in you would rather do something else? In this episode of Cornerstone Conversations, we're getting into some of the questions that aren't always easy to answer, even for pastors. We talk about making decisions when God's direction isn't completely clear, learning to trust Him with the next step, and recognizing that sometimes following Jesus means doing things that are uncomfortable, humbling, and downright embarrassing. What starts as a conversation about hearing God's voice turns into some pretty hilarious and surprisingly personal stories about hunting, difficult apologies, leadership mistakes, and learning to make things right with people. It's an honest conversation about faith, obedience, and discovering that sometimes the hardest part isn't knowing what God wants us to do. It's actually doing it.   New here or made a decision to follow Jesus today? We would love to connect with you.

    Devoted to Prayer | Pastor Josh Hersey | Walk This Way

    Most of us know we should pray, but if we're honest, we often spend more time thinking, worrying, and trying to figure things out on our own than we do actually talking with God. And sometimes, even when we want to pray, we aren't quite sure what to say or where to begin. In Luke 11, the disciples asked Jesus to teach them how to pray, which is interesting because these were men who had been praying their entire lives. So what was it about the way Jesus prayed that made them realize there was something more to discover? In this message from our Walk This Way series, we take a fresh look at the Lord's Prayer and discover that Jesus was teaching something far greater than a collection of words to memorize. He was inviting His disciples into a way of living that involves a genuine relationship with their Heavenly Father, learning to trust His provision, surrendering to His will, walking in forgiveness, and recognizing the power of prayer in the spiritual battles we face. Whether prayer has been part of your life for years or you've always struggled to know how to begin, this conversation is an invitation to discover what it looks like to make prayer a natural part of everyday life rather than something we turn to only when everything else has failed.   New here or made a decision to follow Jesus today?

    Three Questions Every Christian Should Ask Themselves

    What's the last thing you highlighted in your Bible, and why did it catch your attention? What Bible story do you find yourself coming back to in different seasons of life? And what spiritual discipline has actually made a difference in your everyday life? Three simple questions open up a surprisingly honest conversation about faith, the power of the Holy Spirit, God's promises, and the Scriptures that continue to shape the way we live. From Elijah's lowest moments to Jonathan's courage, the guys share why certain passages keep speaking to them, even after years of reading and teaching the Bible. But the conversation gets even more personal when they begin talking about their own spiritual habits. Are we spending more time thinking about our problems than praying about them? Have we made growing closer to God more complicated than it needs to be? Pastor Josh, Trevor, and Dylan talk about worship, prayer, reading Scripture, and finding practical ways to make their relationship with Jesus part of ordinary life. It's a conversation full of encouragement, laughter, and a few honest admissions that might sound a whole lot like your own walk with God.   New here or made a decision to follow Jesus today?

    Devoted to the Word | Larry McCall | Walk This Way

    How much does the Word of God really affect our everyday lives? Can reading the Bible strengthen our faith, guide our decisions, and help us find hope when everything around us seems to be falling apart? In Week 2 of our Walk This Way series, Larry takes us into Acts 2:42, where we discover that the early church was devoted to the apostles’ teaching. This wasn't simply about knowing Scripture. It was about building their lives around the truth of God's Word. Through passages like Hebrews 4:12, 2 Timothy 3:16, Romans 10:17, and Psalm 119:105, we discover why the Bible is more than an ancient collection of writings. God's Word is alive, powerful, and capable of transforming our hearts, strengthening our faith, and guiding us through life's most difficult seasons. Whether you've been following Jesus for decades, you're struggling to reconnect with God, or you've never opened a Bible before, this message is an invitation to discover what happens when we become truly devoted to God's Word.   New here or made a decision to follow Jesus today?

    The Story Behind the Worship

    In this episode of Cornerstone Conversations, Josh sits down with longtime friend and Church on the Rock Worship Director Jeremy Dowler for a conversation that spans decades of friendship, faith, music, mistakes, restoration, and the presence of God. They go all the way back to growing up around Trinity Chapel and the early days of Church on the Rock, learning music before YouTube tutorials and Planning Center, late night worship sessions, old school worship culture, Delirious?, youth ministry, basketball stories, and the people who gave them opportunities long before they were ready. Jeremy also opens up about a season when he walked away from church and felt like the prodigal son, the moment he realized he wanted to come back to his Father’s house, the restoration that followed, and why those experiences now shape the way he leads worship and pours into the next generation. Then the conversation turns toward music itself. From the structure of scales and chords to tension and release, Jeremy explains why music continually reminds him of God and why worship is about far more than playing the right songs. It is about serving the body of Christ, creating space for people to encounter God, and joining together as the church to make much of Him.   New here or made a decision to follow Jesus today?

    The Movement | Pastor Josh Hersey | Walk This Way

    What does it actually mean to be the church, not simply attend church? In Week 1 of Walk This Way, Pastor Josh Hersey looks at the movement Jesus started through His followers and what it means for us to live as part of that movement today. Beginning with Jesus and Peter at Caesarea Philippi in Matthew 16, we see the power of Peter’s declaration that Jesus is the Messiah and Jesus’ promise to build His church, the ekklesia, a people called out by God and sent back into the world with the hope of the gospel.   New here or made a decision to follow Jesus today?

    What Are You Really Trusting God With?

    What does the way we handle money and possessions reveal about our relationship with God? In this episode of Cornerstone Conversations, Pastor Josh talks honestly about biblical stewardship, generosity, tithing, and the difference between seeing ourselves as owners versus stewards of what God has placed in our hands. The conversation explores why generosity is ultimately a heart issue, what it means to give God our first and our best, and how trusting God with our resources can become part of bearing His image in the world. They also dig into some of the questions Christians regularly ask about money and faith: Is tithing still biblical for Christians today? What does the Bible teach about first fruits and generosity? How should a Christian think about possessions, scarcity, abundance, budgeting, and giving to the local church? From Malachi 3 and Matthew 25 to practical stories of missions, benevolence, food pantries, and personal obedience, this conversation challenges us to search Scripture for ourselves and consider what God may want to do through what He has already entrusted to us.   New here or made a decision to follow Jesus today?

    Our Possessions | Pastor Josh Hersey | In His Image

    What does the Bible really say about money, possessions, generosity, and stewardship? In the final message of In His Image, Pastor Josh Hersey explores what it means to follow Jesus with everything God has entrusted to us. Through 1 Timothy 6, Psalm 24, Cain and Abel, the rich young ruler, and Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 6, we see that God is not asking us to reject the things we have. He is inviting us to make sure our possessions never have us. The shift from ownership to stewardship changes the way we view our money, resources, generosity, security, and ultimately our relationship with God. Where our treasure goes, our heart follows. So what are we looking to money and possessions to provide that only Jesus can truly give? Comfort, recognition, experiences, influence, independence, security, pleasure, and control can all feel like life, but they cannot give us the life that is truly life. This message challenges us to live with open hands, trust God instead of our circumstances, and remember that everything we have is from Him, through Him, and for Him.   New here or made a decision to follow Jesus today?
