Looking around at the thrashing waves of life's storms, have you ever wondered where to find unshakable help? For 39 years, Cornerstone Christian Center has pointed thousands to the answer found in Psalm 121: "I lift my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord."
The journey began when founding pastors Rich and Cindy Brown stepped out in faith, gathering a small group in their living room with a vision to establish a church on what was then mostly farmland west of Phoenix. The name "Cornerstone" was purposefully chosen from 1 Peter 2, recognizing Jesus as the precious cornerstone upon which everything else is built. Through decades of ministry, this foundation has never wavered, even as cotton fields transformed into neighborhoods and once-distant Buckeye expanded westward.
What makes this community special isn't its building (though that story involves divine intervention when community planners initially rejected a church on Indian School Road) but the prayers literally embedded in its walls. Before drywall covered the structure, congregation members wrote Scripture and prayers throughout the building—prayers that still cover everyone who walks through the doors today. These invisible blessings represent the heart of a church committed to making space for more people to encounter Jesus.
The "Seven C's" of Cornerstone culture—Commitment, Community, Communication, Competence, Creativity, Compassion, and Celebration—continue guiding this multi-generational, multicultural family of believers. Through outreaches like Mercy House in Cashion, which has transformed generations of lives over its 30+ years, the church remains focused on loving everyone because "that's who Jesus loved us as well."
When life's storms rage and you feel yourself clinging desperately to anything solid, remember the image of the Rock of Ages—a stone cross standing firm amid violent seas. Don't run from God in your pain; run to Him. Lift your eyes to where your help comes from, because "on Christ the solid Rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand." Your storm may be fierce, but your cornerstone will never sink.
