Welcome to Cornerstone Ministries Podcast! This week we are in week 2 of our sermon series: Sex In A Broken World. This week we talk about Principles For Victory.

In our first After the Amen episode, we take a deeper look at everything that unfolded over last weekend at Cornerstone Ministries. From meaningful moments and unexpected technical issues, we’re unpacking it all. Join us as we take time to reflect and dive deeper in this week's lesson.

We are diving into a new sermon series this week! Sex In A Broken World. Sex is God’s idea—it’s beautiful, powerful, and purposeful. But let’s be honest: what was meant to be good has been twisted. We’re surrounded by scandals, overexposure, broken families, and private struggles. Too often, we are left feeling stuck, defeated, or silent. But there is hope. God brings redemption and restoration while gently leading us back to His beautiful design for sex!

Throughout this 4-week series, we’ll unpack what the Bible really says about sex, desire, boundaries, and healing. Come discover a redemptive vision that leads to freedom, wholeness, and a deeply rooted, Biblical sexual ethic.

Welcome to Cornerstone Ministries' Sermon Podcast! Each week, you will hear powerful messages from our weekend services, plus midweek bonus content to help you grow deeper in your walk with Christ. Wherever you are, we want you to know God deeply, find freedom, and be empowered to make a difference for God's glory!
