Short and Pointed was started by Pastor Steven Freede as short and to-the-point sermons and sermon notes for future use. As his online ministry began to grow, he started including them with his weekly sermon series posts. Short and Pointed Sermons have become a favorite for many who frequent the Cornerstone Independent Church on the internet. Pastor Freede has become well-known for not holding back or sugarcoating the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Word of God is as cutting as it is healing, and there is no place for fuzzy feel-good sermons in this world today.
Short and Pointed Sermons cover many topics that will stare you in the face and make you admit who and what you really are. They will make you realize just exactly what God sees in the world and in you.
There's no place for halfhearted discipleship, no tolerance for hypocrisy, or excuses for your actions or your children's.
Short and Pointed is just good, old, straight to the point preaching. It's as encouraging and helpful in your daily walk toward our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, as it is cutting and painful to realize you may be in need of some serious soul-searching. The Word of God is supposed to cut deep, but it will only do so when it is presented in the plain hard truth that is missing in the sermons of many preachers today.
Pastor Freede doesn't preach to make friends. He preaches to make disciples of Jesus Christ. Short and Pointed is a collection of sermons compiled for them who are not afraid to go under the knife to become more aware of the things that need to be cut away in their lives.
Love it or hate it, this book, in some way, is for everyone!
