There are moments in life that quietly shape everything that comes after them. Not the big public wins, but the internal shifts that redefine how you lead, respond, and carry responsibility. In this conversation, we unpack what we call “tent pole moments” and how they become the framework we end up living under, often without even realizing it.

From leadership lessons learned on a football field to the deeper spiritual reality of responsibility, pressure, and growth, this episode gets honest about what forms us over time. If you have ever wondered why you think the way you do, lead the way you do, or react the way you do, this might help you trace it back and see it differently.

This message is built around a question most people don’t slow down long enough to answer honestly: do I actually follow Jesus, or have I just been around Him?

We walk through some of Jesus’ own words that are easy to hear but hard to sit with, especially when He talks about the narrow path, what it really means to call Him Lord, and the difference between doing things for God and actually knowing Him. This message isn’t about being better or trying harder. It’s about understanding what Jesus already did, and deciding what you’re going to do with Him.

There’s a moment in the message where the crowd chooses Barabbas over Jesus, and it forces the same question we all have to answer in our own lives. What will I do with Jesus? Not in theory, but for real.

Wherever you’re at with God, whether you’ve followed Him for years, you’re unsure, or you’ve been keeping Him at a distance, this is an honest look at what Easter actually confronts in all of us.

Not every moment in life carries the same weight… but some do. In this episode of Cornerstone Conversations, we talk about what we’re calling “tent post moments” those defining moments where God does something or says something that ends up holding more of your life together than you realized at the time.

We share personal stories from life, ministry, and recent seasons - including how certain moments have shaped our churches, our leadership, and even how we see ourselves. From unexpected breakthroughs to quiet realizations, these are the moments you don’t move on from… you come back to. We also wrestle with what it looks like to: actually remember what God has done not just repeat what others say, but think and walk with God personally recognize when you might be living in a moment that will shape more than you know If you’ve ever looked back on your life and thought, “that changed everything,” this conversation is for you. And if you feel like you’re in a season right now that might matter more than you can see… you might be closer to one of these moments than you think.

What does it actually mean to have the mind of Christ? In this message, we walk through and uncover a truth that is both freeing and confronting. The mind of Christ is not about gaining intelligence, success, or control over life. It is about becoming like Jesus in how we think, live, and love. Looking at Philippians 2, we see that Jesus, though fully God, chose humility, obedience, and sacrifice. He did not use His position for His own advantage. Instead, He laid it down for others. That mindset changes everything.

This message challenges the way we often approach faith. Many want the benefits of Jesus without adopting the posture of Jesus. But the invitation is deeper than that. It is a call to live selflessly, to step into discomfort for the sake of others, and to reflect the heart of Christ in everyday life.

So many people spend their lives trying to figure out what they’re supposed to do… but what if the real question is: what are you doing with what you already have? In this episode of Cornerstone Conversations, we unpack Matthew 25 and the connection between stewardship, responsibility, and the heart of God for “the least of these.”

This is not just a conversation about talent. It’s about trust. God has already entrusted you with something. Your family. Your influence. Your resources. Your time. And the question is not how much you have… it’s what you’re doing with it.

There is a kind of life that refuses to blend in. A life that does not follow the patterns of culture, but instead is shaped by something deeper, something eternal. In this message from our Misfit Mindset series, we step into the tension of what it means to live set apart in a world that constantly pulls us toward comfort, control, and conformity.

What happens when following Jesus does not make life easier, but actually leads you through storms? This message dives into the reality that the battle is not just around us, it is within us. Our thoughts, our focus, and our perspective are where the real fight takes place. Scripture reminds us that we are not powerless, and that even in trials, God is doing something deeper than we can see.

What happens when your faith moves from conversation to real life? In this episode of Cornerstone Conversations, Pastor Josh shares what it was like to step off a plane into Tanzania and see firsthand how the gospel is changing lives through Compassion International. This is not theory. This is not a commercial. This is real people, real families, and real stories of hope breaking into places marked by poverty.

From visiting homes and meeting families to locking eyes with the child he sponsors, this conversation will challenge the way you think about generosity, purpose, and what it actually means to care for “the least of these.”

If you have ever wondered whether your impact really matters, or how God might use your life beyond your current context, this episode will open your eyes and stir something deeper in you. This is more than a trip recap. It is a call to see differently, live differently, and love people the way Jesus does.

Most battles in life are not happening around us. They are happening inside our minds.

In this message from the Misfit Mindset series, we explore how the real fight for believers is often the battle for our thoughts. Scripture tells us to take every thought captive and to fix our minds on what is true, honorable, and worthy of praise. But that is much easier said than done. Worry, frustration, distractions, and everyday conflicts can quietly pull our thinking in the wrong direction before we even realize it.

This teaching walks through passages like Philippians 4 and 2 Corinthians 10 to show how God invites us into a different way of thinking. Instead of living trapped in cycles of worry or frustration, we learn how to replace those thoughts with prayer and trust. When that shift happens, something powerful follows. God begins guarding our hearts and minds with a peace that does not even make sense to the world around us.

But what if the real battle is happening quietly in your mind during everyday frustrations, disagreements, and storms of life?

Through real life stories, scripture, and practical discipleship, this conversation explores how the enemy often works through distraction, disagreement, and difficulty rather than obvious sin. Learn how fixing your mind on God changes how you walk through storms, conflict, and uncertainty. If you want to understand how to experience God's peace in the middle of life's chaos, this conversation will challenge the way you think about spiritual warfare and faith.

What if the biggest threat to your faith is not rebellion but distraction?

Most people do not walk away from God in a single moment. It happens slowly. One decision, one season, one shift in focus at a time. In this powerful message from the Misfit Mindset series, Larry McCall explains why the Christian life is really a battle for your attention and how believers can stay focused on the path Jesus calls us to follow.

Using Scripture from Psalm 143, Romans 12, Mark 12, and Deuteronomy 6, this sermon explores the two paths every person walks and why followers of Jesus often find themselves drifting without realizing it. If you feel spiritually distracted, worn down by life, or unsure where you stand with God, this message will help you refocus your heart and rediscover the life and peace that come from walking closely with Jesus.
