In an age where reels and shorts put teaching and preaching and podcasts in your path constantly, biblical filters are critical to safeguard your soul from being subtly influenced by imprecise teaching. The goal is not skepticism, but real discernment to discern what is clear and true from what seems true. The Bereans did this well while still hungering to receive the Word.

This podcast is for Cornerstone Bible Church, and if you are at Cornerstone, God has placed you in a local context with shepherds who are known and have character that is known. The local church is your primary source of spiritual health and teaching and instruction. everything else is supplemental.

Not until the recent rise of the digital age did online teachers from all over the world find a place to present themselves to you instantly, ready to influence you as you scroll. We would never let someone wander into the church on a Sunday morning and begin teaching everyone without careful thought and a planned invitation, but we invite that into our lives as we scroll without really even thinking twice about it.

In this episode of Shepherds talk, Pastor Daron shares his heart and our convictions that come from passages of Scripture about the role of a local church in the life of a believer, and the men you should be primarily looking towards to feed you God's Word.

In this episode of Shepherds Talk, Pastor Abe, Daniel, and Dallas talk about the philosophy of ministry among leaders that has set the tone for Cornerstone.

The one another's lived out among the leaders, the camaraderie, and the unity that exists is driven by passages of Scripture that speak to how we interact and care for one another at a leadership level.

Join us as we talk through what that looked like during critical seasons - like being a portable church, and big decisions that needed to be made at Cornerstone - like buying a building with the intent to care for souls.

AI is quickly growing to be everywhere in our world, and it's very possible we are interacting with AI and might not even know it. That is one thing for everyday life and tasks outside of the spiritual realm of the Christian life, but how should we exercise discernment in the spiritual realm with the use of AI? When can it be a helpful tool, and when should we avoid it?

AI has the potential to promote spiritual laziness and even deception. But what are its legitimate uses? Can we use it to organize spiritual categories and thoughts? can we use it as a helpful tool in our bible Study?

Can AI enhance your discernment? What about songwriting, preaching and music in the church? Join us as Pastor Daron and Daniel, with special guest Steve Kovach, talk about exercising wisdom, discernment and integrity with AI.
