Prayer Lesson for The Rock Kids + What’s Happening by The Rock Church

Prayer Lesson for The Rock Kids

Hello, parents! I am happy to share another special video with you and your children. Today, we are going to talk about one of my favorite things to do in the whole world. We are going to talk about prayer.

It is so important for our kids to learn that Jesus loves it when they talk to Him. We can talk to Him anywhere, anytime, about anything. He is an awesome Father who loves to hear our prayers.

The Harvest is Plentiful but the Workers are Few by admin

I heard some experts say that because of all the online services available this past weekend, it was the most attended Easter weekend in the history of the world! Isn’t that amazing? Clearly, we can see that the harvest for the Gospel is plentiful, even during this worldwide crisis. 

I believe that you and I have a unique opportunity and we shouldn’t miss it. There are three ways I believe we can be a part of seeing the harvest gathered right now. Watch the video above to hear all about it.

The Gospel of Mark — Part 3 by The Rock Church

Jesus, The Servant King

We’re excited to continue on with The Gospel of Mark series and hope you’ll join us.

Mark tells us the life story of the King who came not to be served, but to serve. It’s an exciting account of the Son of God that could speak to both the Jews and the non-Jews of Mark’s day. In our study through the book of Mark, we’ll discover more about Jesus’ servant life, His ministry and the training of His disciples.

The Right Place at the Right Time by admin

Do you understand that God knit us together, in our mother’s wombs, to be born at exactly the right place and time — to experience this pandemic together in our various stages of life? God orchestrated it. Let this verse from Acts 17:26 sink in, “He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their habitation.” In other words, we were born at the right place and time.

Difficulties are Food for Faith to Feed on by admin

In the middle of trials, are you seeing the opportunity for your faith to grow? As George Mueller put it, “difficulties are food for faith to feed on.” 

Hebrews 11:1 says that, “faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” Faith takes future realities and brings them into our present realities. It is a rock-solid confidence in God’s Word — even in the midst of difficulties.

Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is Here by admin

I am sobered by what we are facing at this time. In the Bible, we see difficulties people faced over and over again. This is not new to God. Many times, those difficult circumstances brought people to their knees in repentance. 

John the Baptist paved the way for Jesus and His message. Both men proclaimed the need for the people of Israel to repent. I believe that is something our world needs to hear now. It’s certainly something that you and I must continually do — live a life of repentance while clinging to our Savior.

Speak Words of Life + What’s Happening by The Rock Church

It feels like there is so much discouragement in our world right now. There is fear in what we are hearing and reading. Christian, did you know there is power in what you speak? Death and life are found in the power of the tongue.

I would encourage you to speak words of life into the world. When people are full of fear, we can proclaim that we have a good God who says, “Fear Not!” What a great time it is to show our faith to others and give them some good news.

The Presence of God is the Antidote to Fear by admin

Where do you go in times of trouble? Do you run to the things of this world to bring you peace? Or do you look for refuge in the presence of God? 

Jesus told us that we will face trouble in this life. We shouldn’t be deceived to believe otherwise. He promised, however, that we can find peace in Him during troubled times for He has overcome the world. He is the only place to find true refuge.

Treasure by admin

“Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be.” — Matthew 6:21 (NLT)

We live in a time of uncertainty. Many of us are asking a myriad of questions: What do I consider my treasure to be? What is really important? What will I fight to protect? What if I get sick? What if this lasts a really long time? What if I can’t provide for my family? What if I, or someone I love, dies? Why is this happening? What matters?
