CORNERSTONE COVENANT CHURCH NEWS: United — Confronting the Spirit of Disunity

This past Sunday at Cornerstone Covenant Church, God’s people gathered for a meaningful morning of worship, fellowship, and communion as they remembered Christ’s sacrifice and celebrated their unity in Him.

Our new sermon series titled “United: How to Recognize, Confront, and Extinguish the Spirit of Disunity in the Family and Church” was launched. Using Numbers 12:1-9 as the foundation for the message, the congregation explored the conflict that arose when Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses, revealing how disunity can quietly take root and damage relationships, families, churches, businesses, and communities.

Pastor Willard used a giant Rubik's cube as a visual aid to illustrate the complexity of navigating conflict and restoring unity. Life’s challenges were compared to solving a complicated puzzle, reminding the congregation that many of the issues faced in families, workplaces, churches, and communities can seem overwhelming and difficult to untangle. Just as a Rubik’s Cube requires patience, wisdom, and the right approach to bring every side into alignment, unity requires God’s guidance and a willingness to follow His design.

The message highlighted three ways to recognize the spirit of disunity:

1). Criticism and Complaints – Constant fault-finding and negative speech can create division and weaken relationships.

2). Rooted in Pride – Disunity often begins when individuals elevate their own opinions and desires above God’s purposes.

3). Attacks God’s Established Order – When God’s appointed leadership and authority are undermined, division can spread throughout a family, church, or organization.

As the message concluded, attention was drawn to Jesus’ words in Matthew 12:25: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation.” The church community was encouraged to pursue unity, extend grace, and guard their hearts against attitudes that foster division.

The service served as a powerful reminder that God calls His people to work together in love, humility, and unity. As this new series continues, Cornerstone Covenant Church looks forward to learning practical biblical principles that help strengthen families, churches, and communities through the power of being truly united.

During the month of June, Cornerstone Covenant Church will enter into a church-wide "Power Down" for all Midweek Services-a sacred time of rest, repair, reflection, and realignment as we intentionally prepare our hearts for what the Lord is doing next.

This is not a pause in purpose, but a prophetic reset for renewal, strengthening, and spiritual recalibration. We encourage every member and Dream Team servant to use this time to seek God deeply, restore balance, strengthen family, renew personal devotion, and return refreshed for the next move of God in our church.

Sometimes God prepares the next season by first calling His people to be still, heal, and hear Him clearly. Let this be your season to rest intentionally so you can return ready for greater impact, greater unity, and greater Kingdom assignment. See you all Sunday! Blessings 😊.

CORNERSTONE COVENANT NEWS: Be the Light Youth Small Group Shines Through Community Outreach

The Youth Student Ministry at Cornerstone continues to make a meaningful impact both inside and outside the church walls through the efforts of its youth small group, “Be the Light,” led by Joe and Felicia Landin.

Recently, the group organized a special outreach project to support a local blessing box that serves individuals and families in need throughout the community.

Youth members were challenged to bring non-perishable food items to help stock the blessing box located near the Chalet. The response from the students was nothing short of remarkable.

According to Felicia, “Last week, we asked the kids to bring non-perishable foods for the blessing box over by the chalet, and boy did they come through! Today, after our Bible study, they completely filled the box and more! There was a homeless gentleman named Valentino who came up to us asking if we had anything sweet. The kids quickly went through everything and gave him a can of fruit cocktail. We all held hands while Joe prayed for him. God was definitely moving. Valentino burst into tears and hugged Joe tightly. He for sure felt God’s presence!”

The evening became much more than a food drive. It was a powerful lesson in compassion, generosity, and sharing the love of Christ with others. As the students gathered around Valentino in prayer, they witnessed firsthand the difference that kindness and faith can make in someone’s life.

The Be the Light small group truly embodies its name by demonstrating what it means to be the hands and feet of Jesus. Through simple acts of service and genuine care for others, these young people are learning that ministry extends far beyond the walls of the church and into the heart of the community.

Cornerstone is proud of Joe and Felicia Landin and the students of Be the Light for their servant-hearted commitment to helping others. Their outreach serves as an inspiring reminder that when God’s people come together in love and obedience, lives can be touched, needs can be met, and hope can be restored.

As these young believers continue to grow in their faith, they are living out Christ’s call to let their light shine before others and making a lasting impact on those around them.

Cornerstone Covenant Church News:

Sunday was a powerful day at Cornerstone Covenant Church as we celebrated 19 baptisms, worshiped together, and gathered around God’s Word. The atmosphere was filled with joy as family members, friends, and church family witnessed individuals publicly declare their faith in Jesus Christ through baptism.

Our worship team led our church community into a meaningful time of praise and worship, preparing hearts for the message and reminding us of God’s goodness and faithfulness.

Pastor Willard delivered a message titled “A Prepared Table” from Psalm 23:1-6. A beautifully prepared table displayed on stage served as a visual reminder that God is always at work, providing for His people and inviting them into His presence.

Throughout the message, Pastor Willard shared five key truths found in Psalm 23:

Divine Presence
Divine Preparation
Divine Provision
Divine Preservation
Divine Protection

Each point highlighted the faithfulness of the Good Shepherd, who guides, sustains, and cares for His people through every season of life. Just as David declared in Psalm 23, we were reminded that God prepares a place for us, walks with us through valleys, and surrounds us with His goodness and mercy.

The service concluded with a time of prayer as people responded to the message and sought God’s guidance, strength, and encouragement. It was a fitting end to a day that celebrated both new life through baptism and the assurance that God has prepared all that we need in His presence.

What an incredible Sunday as we witnessed lives transformed, faith proclaimed, and hearts encouraged by the promises of God’s Word.

Cornerstone Covenant Church News:

This past Sunday at Cornerstone Covenant Church, Chief of Staff Trevor Murr delivered a powerful message titled “More than Just Bread,” reminding the church that the Word of God is living, powerful, and meant to draw people into relationship with Jesus Christ.

The morning began with heartfelt praise and worship as the congregation came together in unity to lift up the name of Jesus. Throughout the foyer and sanctuary, fellowship filled the atmosphere as church families, guests, and friends connected before and after service.

It was also encouraging to see many young people stepping into areas of service throughout the church. Several youth served faithfully in children’s church, greeted guests with welcoming smiles, and assisted in other ministry areas, reflecting the growing heart of servant leadership within the next generation at Cornerstone.

Using 1 Corinthians 2:9-16 as the foundation for the message, Trevor shared how the Word of God is more than information—it is revelation brought to life through the Holy Spirit. Referencing scriptures including Hebrews 4:12, Isaiah 40:8, Matthew 24:35, and John 1:1-5, the church was reminded that God’s Word is eternal, alive, and transformational.

Trevor emphasized that the goal of the Word is relationship, not routine, and challenged the congregation to remain spiritually minded. Through Romans 8:5-6 and 2 Corinthians 10:3-6, he encouraged believers to carefully consider what they feed their hearts and minds, reminding the church that “what you feed grows.”

“More than Just Bread” served as a timely reminder for Cornerstone Covenant Church to remain spiritually minded, rooted in God’s Word, and led daily by the Holy Spirit.
