Leadership: When Rejection Becomes the Cornerstone | Mark 12:10

About This Video

Mark 12:10 Leadership: When Rejection Becomes the Cornerstone Rejection isn’t a stop sign. It is scaffolding. Jesus quotes Psalm 118:22 to reveal a counterintuitive truth: “The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.” In this teaching, we reframe rejection for life and business. You will learn how to translate “no” into redirection, recognize when the “builders” aren’t your audience, and build on a different blueprint with courage and clarity. We cover the builder’s eye vs God’s vision, how to turn pain into pattern, and why overlooked leaders often become the foundations others align to. What others discard, God designs into the cornerstone of your calling. Takeaways: Redirection over rejection: closed doors reveal the right blueprint and room. Build with God’s vision, not popular validation; the right fit determines the frame. Let setbacks shape systems: codify lessons, strengthen values, and keep building.
