Welcome to the Cornerstone Ministries Podcast! Here is a message from this year's Christmas at Cornerstone service.

This week in our Christmas series, No Longer Silent, we talked about the darkness in our lives. During After the Amen this week, Pastor Paul Hunter gives many practical steps following his message last weekend. Pastor Paul and Pastor Brandon Vieth discuss these steps.

At 8:01, Pastor Brandon asks if we have a presence or perception problem of Jesus “around” us. This leads to a discussion of God’s presence.

At 17:30, as they dive into Pastor Paul’s second point about darkness “within” us. They discuss shame versus guilt, and its connection to finding freedom in Christ.

At 25:57, Pastor Brandon brings up last weekend’s quote, “if you are dealing with pain, hurt, or burnout, you don’t have to pretend its ok.” Pastor Paul explains why we sometimes hide our pain in the church.

At 33:49, they quickly lean into the sermon’s point about the darkness “between” us. They express that this point will be expanded on more in next week’s episode!

At 34:45, the two discuss Pastor Paul’s prayer at the end of service and the role prayer should play in our lives going into holidays.

This week we began our latest series, No Longer Silent, we discussed when God finally speaks. During After the Amen this week, Pastor Paul Hunter speaks on his message.

At 17:52, They answer the question is it okay to be angry with God.

At 35:45, Pastor Paul and Pastor Brandon talk through another quote from the weekend, “God’s silence doesn’t mean He is surprised, it means He is sovereign.”
