We are taking some time to pray, ponder and plan. We hope to figure out what the future looks like by the end of March...not the entire future, that's asking a lot, but hopefully what's in store for The Stone for the next year. :-)

Welcome
The Stone is a ministry of Cornerstone Baptist Church. A community, a venue, an opportunity. We seek to help musicians grow in their faith by serving with their musical gifts. Has God gifted you with a voice for praise, or other musical talents?
Our goal is to create a community in which musicians can grow in their faith through their God given gifts.
We believe that God has made you as you are for a reason. We also believe that serving with fellow musicians is a great opportunity to grow together in our faith with people on a similar path. It is our goal to create opportunities for musicians of all levels and genres to express themselves in a safe, loving, and non-judgemental environment.
We are a community waiting for you!
