Luke [https://www.downtowncornerstone.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/LukeSermonSeries_WebBanner.jpg] This morning we continue our series in the Gospel of Luke, one of four eyewitness accounts of Jesus’ words and works. In them we learn of his life, death, and resurrection to rescue his people from among the neighborhoods of Seattle and the nations of the world. Today, we pick up the latter half of Jesus’ famous Olivet discourse. In this important passage, Jesus calls us to live awake for his certain return amidst the difficulties of these last days.

The End Will Not Be At Once

Growing Together Amidst Sin

How We Grow Together [https://www.downtowncornerstone.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/2026_DCC_HowWeGrowTogether_WebSlider_1920x550.jpg] We continue in our sermon series How We Grow Together. As disciples, all Christians are on a lifelong journey of growing into the likeness of Christ by faith. The Bible’s normal setting for a Christian’s growth is within, rather than apart from, the local church. In this fourth and final sermon of our series we take up the question, “How do we grow together as Christians who are also sinners?” Christians don’t abandon wayward saints; they restore them.

Growing Together Through Suffering

How We Grow Together [https://www.downtowncornerstone.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/2026_DCC_HowWeGrowTogether_WebSlider_1920x550.jpg] This morning, we continue in our sermon series How We Grow Together. As disciples, all Christians are on a lifelong journey of growing into the likeness of Christ by faith. The Bible’s normal setting for a Christian’s growth is within, rather than apart from, the local church. In this third part we meet Paul in the midst of affliction. We’ll see that suffering is God’s platform for sharing comfort and realigning hope.

Growing Together in Christ

How We Grow Together [https://www.downtowncornerstone.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/2026_DCC_HowWeGrowTogether_WebSlider_1920x550.jpg] We continue in our sermon series How We Grow Together. As disciples, all Christians are on a lifelong journey of growing into the likeness of Christ by faith. The Bible’s normal setting for a Christian’s growth is within, rather than apart from, the local church. In this second part we go to the beginning of Paul’s letter to a deeply messed up church. We’ll see that we must strategically ground one another in Christ, because he makes us who we are.
