About Us

Hear from our students

At Cornerstone, I am able to take courses at cheaper tuition rates than other colleges. Plus, the professors are very friendly and every class feels personal.

Daniel Gowaty CCV Student

I loved taking the Biblical Counseling course last semester. All-in-all, that was one of my favorite courses that I have taken.

Caedryn McKenna CCV Student

Professor Jay quickly became a favorite professor of mine for his similar sense of humor compared to mine, but also his love for helping others in cultivating their own sound theology.

Daniel Milam CCV Student

One of my favorite parts about CCV is the community. I am always excited to come to class because everyone is so friendly and I know my presence is appreciated.

John Velleco CCV Student

If you're on the fence about coming to Cornerstone, then I say just do it! You'll end up having a great time and coming out of it with a degree that will help you no matter what you go into.

    Course Description:

    America developed its government out of the fabric of European monarchies, Renaissance political theories, Enlightenment philosophy, and Reformation theology to meet the practical exigencies of life on a constantly unfolding frontier. From colonies to the Constitution and President Washington onward, the United States has developed one of the most unique governing systems in western history. This class will survey the creation of the American government, its development from creation to the present, and its present structure, and evaluate this system against the precepts of a Biblical worldview.
