Charles Allen

Hi, I'm Charles. I'm married to my best friend, Samantha, and together we have six amazing kids. When we moved back home to Texas and began searching for a church, it only took two weeks at Cornerstone for us to know—we had found our home. The intentionality of the community here made a lasting impression.

Since then, I’ve had the opportunity to serve in various areas, and being with our church family remains one of my favorite parts of the week.

My hope is that everyone who walks through Cornerstone’s doors would feel the same sense of belonging that I did. I pray they experience a vibrant, Christ-centered community and find themselves equipped for ministry—encouraged, challenged, and strengthened in their faith.
