Chuck has pastored Cornerstone since 1989. He has a heart for finding the missional purposes of God in the world and helping lead Cornerstone into the middle of that. He has often said, "If we knew where God really wanted us to be we would run away kicking and screaming into the night." As pastor, he enjoys preaching and "hanging out" with people. His leadership style is from the middle, neither pushing nor prodding, but joining in with, and together catching the vision of God for their lives. He and his wife Tina have three boys, Jeffrey, Blake, and Connor. His interests include: running, water skiing, and trying to make things with his hands.

Ethan has served at Cornerstone since July of 2001, laughing and playing with the youth, learning and growing in worship leadership. He is convinced that finger blasters are the essential tool for youth ministry, closely followed by a good story. He regularly writes songs for worship, hoping to further explore the themes of scriptures and the struggles of following Jesus. He is passionately in love with his wife, Jamie, and their two girls, Kaylea and Sophie. Two hopes he has are to qualify for the Missouri State Amateur Golf Tournament and to see the Royals win another World Series.
