God never ceases to amaze us when it comes to providing financially for the church and 2013 was no exception. The Rock Church stepped out in faith in many ways last year to make strides to win Utah and the world for Jesus. We started our Roots 2.0 capital campaign to raise funds to construct a building on our land in Draper, Read more →

Well, the exciting day has finally come! After literally months of hard work, we received our official “Building Permit” on Wednesday and we can press ahead full steam with our building project in Draper (see pictures image of the progress here)! Thank you again for all your prayers, support, and sacrifice to make this happen. Lives will be different because you gave!
Also, just a reminder to please attend our Ground Breaking ceremony this Sunday, March 2 from 2-3:00 p.m. on the property (11630 S 700 E). See you Sunday!

“See, I am sending an angel ahead of you to guard you along the way and to bring you to the place I have prepared.” — Exodus 23:20 (NIV)
I read this verse last week in my quiet time. What an exciting visual — God’s angels leading the way to a place Jesus has prepared for our church. I have been claiming this verse for a “home of our own” — our own Sandy/Draper facility — since 2006. Read more →

“Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.” –Romans 12:12
We are on the edge of a lot of really exciting things happening this year at The Rock. We are recognizing three new deacons, and five new pastors who have already been investing their lives into the church for quite some time. This is a big deal for us, and it is just the start of a very busy 2014. We are sending out missionaries to Honduras, Romania, Italy, and Poland. We are building a church home in Draper, planting a church, and continuing to be missionaries in our own community. We are remaining faithful in God to provide us with the funds to accomplish this vision. Read more →

It says in Psalms 77:11-12 “I will remember the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. I will meditate on all your works and consider all your mighty deeds.”
Looking back on all that God has done at the Rock in 2013 gives us hope for the all he has for us in the future! Looking back also makes us thankful and expectant for the amazing things we will Read more →

“The Christian life is not a constant high. I have my moments of deep discouragement. I have to go to God in prayer with tears in my eyes, and say, ‘O God, forgive me,’ or ‘Help me.’” –Billy Graham
We are a couple days into 2014 now. You might have even taken down your Christmas tree and quit making cookies, and you are willing to try eating vegetables for the first time since the green bean casserole at Thanksgiving. You’ve got your one year Read more →

A new year often motivates people to start something new and can also give us a sense of relief when we get a chance to start over. Out goes Old Man 2013 and in comes the Young Hope of 2014. Lose weight, pray more, stop smoking, start budgeting, help others, share your faith, clean your car, read your Bible, spend more time with your kids, and on and on. These are all fine things to strive for and if a New Year’s resolution helps you get there, then I say go for it. Like a fresh coat of snow covers up the dead browns of fall, we see things anew and the possibilities in the future seem endless.
