Shaped In The Waiting | Cornerstone Church | Pastor Linn Winters

Discover how life’s challenges and waiting seasons are God’s tools for shaping us into the image of Jesus! In this kickoff to our “Between Here and There” series, we dive deep into powerful truths from Scripture and honest personal stories about spiritual growth. Scriptures Covered: • Romans 12:2 – “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind…” • 1 John 2:15 – “Do not love the world or anything in the world…” • Romans 8:28–29 – “In all things God works for the good of those who love Him… to be conformed to the image of His Son.” • James 1:2–4 – “Consider it pure joy… whenever you face trials… because… you may be mature and complete…” Key Points: Spiritual progress often happens "in the pause"—those seasons where it feels like God is silent or life is unfair. God’s top priority is not to make us rich, famous, or even happy—but to grow us up in Christlike maturity. Chasing things of the world leads to disappointment, but pursuing Christlikeness brings true fulfillment. Trials, unfairness, and tough people are not punishments, but opportunities for God to shape us. Inspirational stories show how perspective changes everything—see how a WWJD (“What Would Jesus Do?”) mindset transforms lives. Action Challenge: Wear a WWJD bracelet for the next 30 days and, in every difficult or ordinary moment, ask: “How would Jesus respond here?” Let’s let God use every season to make us more like Him!
