Cornerstone Festival's Strong Seminar Line-up
I used to go to Cornerstone Festival in Bushnell, Illinois, every summer for the great music. (Some of the old school stuff from my era is even still alive and kicking: The 77s, Charlie Peacock, The Lost Dogs, Over The Rhine, Rez Band, Sixpence None The Richer, etc.)
Later on, it was for the Underground Ministries Roundtable discussions.
Billy Graham even sent me to Cornerstone one year as part of my former job, but that’s another story …
One of Cornerstone Festival’s biggest draws this year (in my older, wiser, and slightly-less-rock’n’roll opinion) is the seminar schedule, featuring:
Miroslav Volf- The “Jesus for President” Tour with Shane Claiborne and Chris Haw
- Anthony Smith
Karen Sloan- Crystal Downing
- Michael Spencer
- Christian Peacemaker Teams
- and many others
Oh, and it’s the 25th anniversary of Cornerstone Festival, so that’s pretty cool too.

I was at Cornerstone Festival this year and it was just amazing. I had missed last year but was glad to be back.
Just returned from C-Stone! The seminars were better than you predicted.
The Lost Dogs, 77s, etc. were great. Not so much the screamo stuff.

All of Emergent’s theological category bending messyness has got nothing on the disorientation I have suffered from juxtaposing Miroslav Volf and contemporary Christian music! The world just got a whole lot wierder.
