Welcome!
My name is Joshua Mack and I am so happy to be a Christian. It's a miracle! When I was a young man, God enabled me to see that my best works were filled with self-righteousness and pride. While that was discouraging, it led me to the cross, where God revealed both His justice and mercy to me. I saw my sin was worse than I thought it was. I came to know I desperately needed a Savior and that Jesus was the only Savior for sinners. God gave me faith in His Son and hatred for my sin and turned my life upside down!
Now I get to serve him as a pastor. Though growing up, I definitely didn’t want to be one. I struggled with the fear of man and hated standing up in front of people. But in my senior year of high school, I worked as a security guard in a chicken factory. There wasn’t much to do, so I sat in a tiny security guard shack and read the Bible. There I developed an overwhelming desire to know God’s Word better and to be equipped to teach it to others. So, I moved to California and studied at the Master’s University and became part of Grace Community Church, where I was discipled, trained, ordained and sent out. After having served as a missionary in South Africa for many years, I joined the team at Cornerstone Bible Church in the beginning of 2021.
God’s been very kind to me. Besides saving me and allowing me to serve him, he's given me a very sweet wife and many children whom I love dearly. (Just ask, and I will tell you all about them!) My goal in life is to know and enjoy God as much as I possibly can, be holy, grow in my love for people, preach in a way that makes God happy, develop deep biblical friendships with others, and help the local church be faithful to its calling.
