OUR Team

More than 35 years ago, Cornerstone Bible Church began as Tri-City Baptist Church, a vibrant fellowship of over 300 believers. The church gathered in a spacious sanctuary—where the Mt. Moriah Road Home Depot parking lot stands today—and was blessed with strong seasons of growth and ministry.

During those early years the church experienced several pastoral transitions, including the leadership of Pastor Lamar Mooneyham, who later accepted a call to Northside Baptist in Charlotte. Though the following season brought challenges and change, God faithfully preserved a group of committed believers who desired to continue worshiping together, studying the Scriptures, and serving their community.

That faithful remnant ultimately became Cornerstone Bible Church—a congregation built not on buildings or pastors, but on the unchanging truth of God’s Word and His sustaining grace.
