Q:
Is everyone welcome in this church? Is this a gay friendly church in Livermore California? We are looking for a friendly church with good service
A:
Hi! Bit of a late answer, but from my experience at Cornerstone, they are excepting to everyone! I personally know a couple different people who identify as bisexual or gay, and they attend this church. It's really important to feel comfortable at… more

These people preaches God's, word but doesn't live by his way of life. God, wouldn't ever put someone one the streets. Those donations they get aren't being used correctly, they put my mother on the street before trying to get her proper help need after help her out they got tired of funding her hotel room and put her back to the streets. God, wouldn't have ever done those things Vanessa!

I have never been to a more Jesus like church than Cornerstone. The Pastors go out of their way to say HI. And once they know your name, they don't forget it. I definitely feel the love of Jesus here.

100% think Calvary should buy this church. It is a broken shell of what it used to be. It has gone so far woke I cannot attend. Huge virtual signaling last time I went and race shaming. Walked out and never returned.

Hello...
Haven't been to Cornerstone lately. I attend elsewhere. What's happening at this church? I'd like to know. It was ok while I attended, except financial counseling lacked, no help given to us at a tough time, Valley community church in pleasanton was truly walking in what they read & preached and helped us out of financial ruin and now we can actually tithe & give back. Cornerstone financial counseling only said "sorry" we can't help you.Helpful 5Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1 - D J.San Ramon, Vereinigte Staaten191211. Juli 2021
At one time this was a decent church. Recently the church has become very liberal and my wife and i were very sad to hear a message that was more about feminism than scripture. equal pay isnt want i want to hear on sunday as well as men and women dont have gender roles.

This church is nothing like the boring old Mormon churches I went to as a kid. They have a coffee bar! You're not going to see that at Mormon church.
I attended a funeral service for my boyfriends dear friend. She attended church at this location. The pastor personally knew her and her family. It was one of the warmest memorials I've been to. It was a celebration of her life and her devotion to god.
The auditorium is huge. They must have quite the congregation that comes to their services. It's all very modern and inviting. The sound system was in point.
I was very impressed with this church. I'm no longer of the church going disposition but I can appreciate nice things when I see them.Helpful 9Thanks 0Love this 10Oh no 1 - 31. Mai 2017
A very large and comfortable church that always offers a timely and relevant message from Pastor Steve. The church works easily with busy schedules as it even offers a service on Saturday. An intimate and strong community is maintained through numerous small home groups, a cozy coffee shop, and various outreach and volunteer opportunities.
The first time I went was because I was meeting a friend from Tracy as a convenient mid point. We settled into the coffee shop to pass a bit of time before the message - and this is when my friend was on his phone and saw the news of the passing of Paul Walker... so after a quick Google search I can see that day was November 30, 2013.
I have been many times since that time back in 2013. Pastor Steve has a passion and gift for what he does. Hes authentic and weaves in stories that make sermons more fun and memorable: like the story of the birds crashing into windows - and the possible meaning of that or the one sermon of fake versus flawed. For the record you aren't expected to somehow be perfect here.
This is a church for strong believers and followers of Christ all the way to non believers or seekers. The church space is so large you will find a spot your comfortable in. Maybe your not the type to sit front and center - hands waving in the air... well, you can just hang in the coffee shop for the entire duration of the sermon where you can hear and see whats going on over the TV.
This church is located at the border of Livermore and Pleasanton with many smaller satellite locations all over the bay. At a church with this many people and locations it is important to join a small group. Friends are made in volunteering situations and in smaller group settings where everybody works together toward a set goal. Go online and check out what is offered. I think people are like redwood trees - when we are "planted" in groups it makes us stronger and we hold each other up during the storms and learn from one another.
Paul Walker got prayers from me that day but also learn from his mistake - driving in a 2005 model year car with 10 year old crusty tires with good tread depth - a problem that tends to happen in cars that are not driven often. Check in with your car enthusiast friends and even grandma with her 10 year old car with 20,000 miles and original factory tires - especially if it doesn't have an electronic stability program.
Make some close Christian friends and join this community - or at least visit once or twice to see if its for you.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 1 - Danville B.Danville, Vereinigte Staaten116410125. Nov. 2017
I grew up attending Catholic school and Catholic churches as a child, so coming here initially was definitely a culture shock. There is no communion, no priest, not even a Cross anywhere in the church. A lively band plays and sings your music. The auditorium is large and very modern with flat screen TV's and monitors projecting images from the stage and the latest sound-system equipment. The church is very large, so as others have noted, you can come here and never see the same person twice, and also not be disturbed by anyone since no one knows who you are. The church recommends joining their smaller life groups in order to meet people and make more of a personal connection.
My husband, who also grew up Catholic, is not a fan of Catholic churches and since I'm ambivalent about them as adult, decided this non-denominational Christian church was a good compromise to start bringing our daughter to. They have a great kids program with tons of classes for kids of all ages. This I am most impressed with. My daughter loves the kids classes. We have friends who attend church here who were kind enough to introduce us to Cornerstone and welcome us in to attend with them and we are very thankful for their kindness.
One small thing I don't particularly care for is that it seems every time Pastor Steve delivers his sermon, he tries to get in a thinly-veiled jab (or two) at our President or current politics. Hello, your main campus is in Livermore whose demographic I highly suspect is more Republican / Conservative than other areas in the Bay, and insulting him and his supporters seems well, insulting. I come here to listen to you preach a sermon, not preach about politics. None of the other pastors do this, I've only heard it from pastor Steve Madsen.
Overall, the church is "good" for me, and seems to be great for my daughter. I sometimes wish I was part of a smaller church, but I come here mainly for my daughter, who loves the kids classes, has friends who attend with her, and says she doesn't wish to go anywhere else. And as long as my daughter WANTS to come to church, I am not going to push it! :DHelpful 5Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 0 - Ryan C.Livermore, Vereinigte Staaten221358. Sept. 2018
How safe are our children? Children's ministry is an important one. We had a negative experience in regards to their policy and procedures where they allowed a volunteer, and not their mandated reporter to repeatedly interrogate And investigate children they assumed had been abused. Leave your children only with people you trust and not just random volunteers. Ask about what their policy and procedures are on taking a child to the bathroom or questioning a child. I'm disappointed in how this has traumatized our children and family. When we addressed this issue to their directors we did not receive the support we thought a Christian community would provide example ... prayer for our family.

I came here for the first time this past Sunday with my bf, and we were thoroughly impressed. Both of us are familiar with formalized, stuffy churches run by pastors who have the gift of putting you to sleep within the hour. Not here though!
The minister here has a sense of humor, ties his real life stories in with the scriptures, animates the verses in the Bible and sends an inspirational and spiritual message applicable to our lives. He does this with conviction and real passion. Additionally, maps, images and words on the two large projector screens on either side of the stage are used as visual aids to follow along during the message. There is nothing wrong with adding a little humor to the sermon. Laughter is good for the soul. It breaks up what could otherwise be a monotonous message by adding interest which gets people's attention to pay more attention to God's message. It is merely one quality of what makes this pastor a good speaker not the epitome of the sermon. Clearly Bill P. needs to loosen up and listen to the message which is not remotely a comedic show.
Yes, this church is quite colossal. For this reason, I find it less intimidating. I also love the fact that it is also very diverse. I saw every race in attendance, couples, families and singles. That's what I call unity! If you miss a sermon, it's also online. Yes, we are definitely returning to hear more of God's word!Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 0
