Hi Peter,
I love old churches. They’re powerful reminders of God’s promise to build His Church, and of believers who lived faithfully in light of that promise. Most of these churches are anchored by a cornerstone. A cornerstone isn’t flashy, but it’s essential for stabilizing the entire structure. It’s amazing to think about the decades of ministry that have happened in these churches thanks to those who grasped the long-term vision of the ministry that could take place there. What the cornerstone is to the building, the founders were to the people inside the building.
Like these long-standing churches, our ministry depends on likeminded supporters who provide stability through consistent partnership.
At the Colson Center, only 11% of those who regularly use our resources contribute financially, and only 1% give on a monthly basis. Regular supporters are our cornerstone. That’s why I’m thrilled to launch our Cornerstone Monthly Partner program. Monthly partners make an unparalleled impact on this ministry by providing a consistent and dependable foundation for the work God has called us to.
Monthly partners are the ones who allow us to provide free access to the Christian worldview resources that equip believers with the clarity, confidence, and courage they need to live out their faith. Here are some of the stories our monthly partners make possible:
- The Colson Fellows program equipped Terri, a middle school principal, to help her teachers navigate political conversations with compassion and hope.
- A video from the Identity Project, “Communicating About Gender Ideology,” equipped Nancy to talk with her teenage daughter who has become curious about gender and sexuality.
- “Hope Always,” a Colson Educators course on mental health and suicide, gave Steven, a teacher in Michigan, the confidence to engage with one of his students who has recently appeared depressed and unstable.
Monthly donors make these true stories possible. Will you join us as a Cornerstone Monthly Partner? Your regular support, at any amount, provides believers with trusted Christian resources that help them develop clarity, confidence, and courage. As a monthly partner, you’ll equip others to live faithfully for Christ in their communities by promoting what’s good, resisting evil, creating what’s missing, and restoring what’s broken.
