Cornerstone Chapel

I have been praying for a Bible-​based church ever since I moved to Loudoun County 6 months ago. I kept resisting going to Cornerstone Chapel because my GPS said it was 26 min away, but I got there in 20 –no traffic on a Sunday! I immediately felt the energy in the entranceway of a multi-​cultural, all age groups represented, family-​centered church. The music was inspirational and you could easily sing along — no overly high notes — and I quickly felt that this church was different — in a nothing but good way!
The pastor was «real» — humble and funny and dang smart! He is a gifted speaker.
I wasn’t sure where the sermon was going at first, but sure enough — the pastor hit it home and made the Biblical passages applicable for today. For the first time in a long time… I felt convicted, spoken to, comforted, inspired, challenged and blessed. Did you know this church was just recently voted as the best in Loudoun County?! Yeah… and I was there for the announcement but not at all surprised.
If you go, make sure you visit the welcome/​info area. I had a list of questions and one of the Pastor’s sons, Austin, answered every one of them until I asked about the small groups and then he turned me over to the small group pastor. This gentleman was so accommodating and informative and had such a welcoming spirit. I am sold… found my church home!

My family attended Cornerstone for 17 years. It’s a great church, and I would recommend it to anyone in the Leesburg area looking for a church home. Pastor Gary is an amazing Bible teacher. I have to disagree with one of the other reviews related to Cornerstone, I attended almost every Sunday for 17 years straight and never once heard a sermon asking for money.

The free storytelling is nice, but they’re always asking for money. The stories are always free at the bar, and when they ask for money, you get drinks in return.

One of the things that attracted me to this church was the fact that a trusted co worker (who went to seminary) chose this church after trying and being disillusioned with other churches in our area.
We stayed because out pastor goes through the Bible, chapter by chapter. Its like a college course in the Bible that takes 6 years to finish! We have learned so much more (depth, cultural context, etc) that the Bible and church is no longer boring but fascinating!
