The Rejected Cornerstone

The gospel confronts the status quo – even when that status quo is being enforced by powerful people intent on keeping things just the way they were.

Nobody could question the evidence of the man who had been healed. But these followers of Jesus were a threat to be dealt with. They brought out the big guns of threats and intimidation. The Apostles were publicly questioned.

The Holy Spirit took that situation and used it for his greater purposes.

This is no longer the Peter who cussed a blue streak of denial when a servant girl asked him about Jesus, this is a whole new guy, and he’s going toe-to-toe with some of the most powerful men of his city.

He’s citing scripture calling them out as the builders who rejected the Cornerstone predicted by God’s own word.

And to be honest, they aren’t quite sure what do to about him.

The PERFECT Gift For The Art Loving Warrior

Dear Fellow Warriors: My new book just dropped, GILES VOL. I: The Biblical Warrior Collection. It’s a full color coffee table compilation of my biblical paintings over the last 20yrs. As you know, I don’t depict the biblical men in this book as sweet bearded women but rough troublemakers who shook all of hell’s habitations. It’s a great gift for the male and female scrappy warriors on your Christmas list. Young kids will love it too. 70+ original paintings. 234 pages with the scriptural inspiration behind each painting. It’s a beautiful book.

RECOMMENDATIONS. “One reason I buy Doug’s priceless art is to make bold statements on the walls of my home. Lively discussions come alive to bring home the Gospel messages behind the brushstrokes gifted to Mr. Giles. Pastor Doug’s creativity in canvassing the Biblical perspective is daring and courageous.”
– Captain Robert Reinecker
