Honoring A Mother's Legacy

Hope Fully

Many Christians find themselves spiritually exhausted not because they have walked away from God, but because they are running on empty. Drawing from 1 Peter, four practical infusions can help restore spiritual vitality. The first is remembering your identity as someone chosen by God and adopted into His family. The second is anchoring your trust in God's living promises, grounded in the historical reality of the resurrection. The third is allowing trials to refine and strengthen your faith rather than simply trying to escape them. The fourth is shifting from a vague, wishful hopefulness to a full, assured hope rooted in what Christ has already accomplished.

Being A Dad In the Presence of the Father

Being a godly father is one of the most important callings a man can answer, and Psalm 15 gives a clear and practical picture of what that looks like. Four key areas shape a father's lasting impact on his children: his actions, his words, his circle of friends, and his integrity. Children are always watching, and what they see in their father will shape their faith, their character, and their future far more than any advice he gives. A father who pursues God sincerely, speaks life over his children, surrounds himself with godly men, and keeps his word is building a legacy that outlasts him. The goal is not perfection but devoted, intentional pursuit of Christ in everyday life. That kind of father is exactly what Psalm 15 describes, and exactly what every family needs.

Building A Legacy That Matters | Legacy

Jesus's parable of the talents reveals what it means to be a faithful servant while waiting for His return. Three servants received different amounts of money - two invested and doubled their talents, while one buried his out of fear. The faithful servants received identical praise regardless of the amount they managed. This parable teaches that God entrusts us with five key talents: time, relationships, resources, opportunities, and assignments. Legacy thieves like distraction, comparison, fear, complacency, and lack of faith can steal our faithfulness. True faithfulness means actively investing what God has given us rather than passively waiting, knowing we will give an account for our stewardship.

30th Anniversary Celebration

Cornerstone Church celebrates 30 years of God's faithfulness, tracing its remarkable journey from humble beginnings to community transformation. The story begins with Pastor Henry and Doris Hunkapiller's missionary work in Liberia, whose legacy continued through their daughter Georgie and her husband Pastor Artie Davis. Despite initial reluctance after previous church planting failures, God called them to start something different in Orangeburg. From a small gymnastics center to the Willington campus, and finally to the miraculous acquisition of the old Winn-Dixie building, God has consistently provided beyond human understanding. This legacy reminds us that we live in the shade of trees we didn't plant, and challenges us to continue building for future generations through faithful obedience to God's calling.

Choosing What You Multiply | Legacy

Life presents only two fundamental paths: walking by the Spirit or walking by the flesh. Every decision you make today actively shapes your legacy through God's multiplication principle - you don't choose whether your life multiplies, only what it multiplies. The mature Christian response isn't perfect walking, but quickly recognizing when you've strayed, repenting, and changing course. The fruit of the Spirit - love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control - emerges naturally when you're walking in step with God. You can create fertile soil for spiritual growth by staying planted in community, saturating yourself in Scripture, maintaining prayer, repenting quickly, and crucifying the flesh.
