Cornerstone Baptist Church - Montague Sermons

This week we have Paul and Elizabeth Millar joining us as we continue to pray and discern God's direction about a potential merger with Montague Christian Church.

People don't rise from the dead! The claim of Christianity that Jesus is risen would be an embarrassment if it's not true. In 1 Corinthians 15 the Apostle Paul gives us a case for the Resurrection: That we have REASON to believe, and we can EXPERIENCE the Risen Jesus.

We're starting our series through Jesus' "Sermon on the Mount" recorded in Matthew 5-7. We're asking questions like, "What is this Kingdom of Heaven?" and "What does it mean the be 'blessed'?"

During the last Sunday of 2023, we participated together in an ancient prayer practice called the Examen. As you listen, you're encouraged to invite the Holy Spirit to help you reflect on the past year.

This Sunday, we're honoured to have Julie Nicholson share her story of how God has continued to show up in her life.

Christmas Eve, 2023

We're often asking where God is in the midst of a fallen and messed up world. This week, we look at the hope of God's action to restore His creation, instigated at the coming of Jesus.

"The line between good and evil runs not through states, nor between classes, nor between political parties either — but right through every human heart." - Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

This week, we look at how Christ is the Light that comes into the world and pushes back the darkness of our Sinful Nature.

We're continuing in our "Light of the World" series we're looking at how Christ breaks in as light into the dark influence of Satan.

Pastor Dana joins us in Montague to begin our "Light of the World" series. Through Advent we're exploring how the Bible talks about the darkness of the world that we live in, and how Christ comes as a light into that darkness.

This week, Matt wraps up our series in Ecclesiastes by giving us an overview of the book, and reminding us that there IS something new under the sun!

What do you do for a living? The question either makes us beam with pride or cringe in embarrassment. This week, we allow the Teacher in Ecclesiastes to deconstruct how we place our identity in our work, and see how Jesus invites us into a life of working in line with the coming Kingdom.

This week we look at Jesus' famous declaration from John 10:11, "I Am the Good Shepherd." What does that mean, and how are we His sheep?

We continue our Summer waterfront series: I Am. Jesus, in being confronted by the religious leaders in Jerusalem claims to be "The Light of the World."

We treat things differently when we imagine them as disposable. This week, we explore God's plan for cosmic redemption and how His restoration of His creation impacts how we treat it now.

This week in our Holy Land series, we look at God creating humans in his image to rule and subdue his creation. What does that mean, and how have we failed to do it? If Jesus is the perfect Image of God, how does he show us what it looks like to rule creation his way?

This week we start our new series Holy Land, where we explore what the Bible says about God's creation, our place in it, and our responsibility for it.

This week we wrap up our series through Colossians with Paul's final words to the Colossian church and his list of goodbyes. We learn about the importance of living like Christ in how we speak to those outside and inside the church.

This week, we continue in our Colossians series by tackling a passage that can be quite awkward for us to read as 21st century Canadians. Instead of seeing this passage as a battleground, what if we took a step back and tried to understand how Paul is speaking into the culture and family structures of his day?

Pastor Dana invites us to consider what it means for Christ to remain at the centre and not be persuaded by false teaching.

We continue our series in Colossians and look at Paul's words about his suffering and contending for the church in Colossae. What if God is uniquely with us and inviting us to step into the difficult spaces in order to be part of the work He's doing?

We're looking at Paul's poetic hymn in the first chapter of Colossians, where he highlights how Jesus is uniquely supreme over all things.

This week we kick off our series in Colossians and look at Paul's opening encouragement and prayer for the church in Colossae.

We're celebrating Jesus's resurrection this Easter and looking at Matthew's account of it in Mt. 28.

This Good Friday, we meditate on the crucifixion of Jesus through the lens of the injustice of Sin done to us, done by us, and Jesus' response to it.

On Palm Sunday we see the parallels between Jesus' Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem and Stephen's criticism of the Sanhedrin during his trial. How are we like the religious leaders who rejected Jesus? How can we change?
