Pastor Rick Hixon has gone home to be with Jesus, but the fire he carried for Christ still burns brightly. For years, he faithfully led the Cornerstone Bible Church men’s group with unwavering passion. He had a deep conviction that men should rise up, lead well, and bear much fruit for the Kingdom. As one of the pastors at Cornerstone, Pastor Rick embraced his calling with humility and purpose. He never treated the role lightly. Time and time again, he poured his heart into journaling his prayers and vision—always longing to see the church walk in unity, grow strong in the Word, and overflow with lasting fruit.

One of the most treasured gifts I (Josh Hixon, his son) now hold are two of his journals from the final years of his life. Within their pages are insights, wisdom, and raw devotion—a glimpse into a heart that beat deeply for Jesus. These journals still teach. Still challenge. Still inspire. In this section, you’ll find posts inspired by and drawn directly from those very entries.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Pastor Rick also recorded some episodes of The Daily Stone—a series of heartfelt YouTube devotionals that encouraged many during difficult days. We’ve gathered some of those teachings here as well, alongside written transcripts to make them easy to revisit and share.

So dig in.

Let the richness of Pastor Rick’s legacy draw you closer to Jesus. May his words stir your heart, strengthen your walk, and ignite something new in your spirit. His fruit didn’t just remain—it’s still multiplying.

Share these teachings with your world. Use them to grow. Let them strengthen your faith and point you back to the One Pastor Rick loved with everything he had—Jesus.
