Pastor Micah Stephens, senior pastor of Godspeak Calvary Chapel, delivers a powerful exposition of 1 Peter 2:1–10, teaching that believers are living stones being built into a spiritual house with Jesus Christ as the chief cornerstone. Using vivid construction imagery and personal anecdotes—like sorting warped 2x4s at Home Depot and the miraculous way a mother’s breast milk customizes antibodies for her baby—Micah urges the church to lay aside malice, deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and evil speaking, to crave the pure milk of God’s Word like newborns, and to draw near to Jesus daily. He explains that only through Christ are we formed into a holy, royal priesthood offering acceptable spiritual sacrifices: praise, generosity, prayer, evangelism, repentance, and ultimately our whole lives as living sacrifices. In a culture that rejects the perfect cornerstone, believers are called to build everything upon Him—finding stability, belonging, and purpose—or stumble over Him in disobedience.
