“I am impressed with the power and ability of Cornerstone participants to share their personal faith stories and divine encounters of grace with one another and the larger community. Cornerstone provides a sound & spirit filled forum for such witness to flourish.”
Fr. Robert Capone, University of San Diego, San Diego, California

Geoffrey D. Miller, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Biblical Studies, St. Louis University , St. Louis, Missouri

“I'm a six year participant in Cornerstone Scripture Study and each fall I can't wait for the next session to start. The study questions draw out the meaning of each lesson and as we discuss them in class the input from members adds more depth to my understanding of the Bible. Becoming a member of Cornerstone Scripture Study group is the best gift I've given myself in years!”

“For so long I have wanted to do a bible study, but just could not find the time or the right fit for me. I can say without hesitation I have found my place. This is my second year and Cornerstone has proven to be a source of great learning, peace and inspiration. Each and every member of this Branch plays an important role in my faith journey. Each week we gather I look forward to sharing, learning and growing spiritually. What great encouragement is offered here. It is giving me the discipline to improve my prayer life.”

“For me, Cornerstone offers the unique blend of the history of our faith, the sharing of our beliefs and the benefits of belonging to a community that is filled with love, compassion and understanding. No other Bible study has offered this powerful combination.“
Tom M, Mission Branch- CA, member
“Cornerstone has given life and meaning to scriptures I have been hearing and reading my entire life. Cornerstone has introduced me to the authors of scripture as living breathing people who have undergone trials and tribulations just as I have. They have reinforced the notion that God is in control of the universe and all that is in it. I have seen how they have persevered and that I will persevere if I have faith and trust in God.”
Barb B, St. Gerard-MN Branch, member since 2013
So often I am asked if there is a Bible Study in which a Catholic would both feel at home and be nourished both spiritually and intellectually as well. So often I respond, 'I recommend The Cornerstone.'
Rev. Msgr. James Telthorst
The unique gift of The Cornerstone is that Catholics learn not only to study, but to pray the Scriptures in community, and so meet the living Word -- Jesus.
Rev. Paul Niemann
The Cornerstone Bible Study is a gathering of people of faith who wish to be nourished by God's Word. I recommend participation in this faith experience for all who seek to know the Lord.
