  1. Spiritual Wealth

    Leave a Comment
    Spiritual Wealth – a word by Pastor Steele Croswhite from The Rock Church in Draper, UT. "He was so right. How easily we store up earthly wealth without thinking much at all about our spiritual wealth."

    “Yes, a person is a fool to store up earthly wealth but not have a rich relationship with God.” — Luke 12:21

    Through the years, I’ve never had a lot of wealth. It never really bothered me because I had enough money for burritos, and enough to take my wife on modest dates. I didn’t care all that much that we didn’t have “two nickels to rub together” to make our lives what they were. There was a sweetness in not having a lot of money.

  2. Prepare for Suffering

    Prepare for Suffering – a word by Pastor Josh Whitney from The Rock Church. "You might be suffering now or suffering might be in your future. Hiding God’s Word deep in your heart helps prepare you..."

    “Do not fear what you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested, and for ten days you will have tribulation. Be faithful unto death, and I will give you the crown of life.”Revelation 2:10

    Last year, at a pastor’s conference, we watched the Tortured for Christ movie. This powerful film told the story of pastor Richard Wurmbrand (1909-2001). He was a Romanian pastor who endured 14 years of Communist imprisonment and suffering for his faith. The torture scenes made the movie difficult to watch. However, his courage and example were astonishing.

    Leave a Comment

    Hi, Rock Church ~~ We had an amazing Easter celebration last weekend! All three services were full, there were 17 salvations, 20 baptisms and tons of new people! Celebrating the Resurrection of Jesus together was an incredible blessing. 

    I have a quick COVID update for you. As you may know, Governor Cox (and the Utah State Legislature) recently passed a bill that will eliminate any mask requirements in the state of Utah (as of April 10, 2021).

  4. Lives are Different

    Made for Mission – a word by Pastor Bill Young from The Rock Church in Draper, UT. "... your servant hearts and desire to engage in God’s mission has made an eternal impact in our world. Lives are different because of YOU!"

    “Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.” — 1 Corinthians 15:58 (NIV)

    Can you believe it? Winter is over and spring is already upon us! It seems as if this time of year brings new and exciting opportunities for us to labor hard for Jesus (and for me to start preparing my garden).

  5. Long Shot

    Long Shot – a word by Pastor Billy Johnson from The Rock church in Draper, UT. "I’m convinced that the only reason my long shot happened, is because God was behind it every step of the way."

    When my co-worker asked me if I’d be interested in helping him with electrical work for a church remodel, my first thought was that it was a long shot. Why? Because the church was in Hawaii! My co-worker (who is also a Christian) is good friends with the pastor of the Hawaiian church.

    S.O.A.P. – a word by Pastor Steele Croswhite from The Rock Church in Draper, UT. "I have had a real boost in my quiet times and it’s because I have been using S.O.A.P. Not the soap you use to wash with, however."

    Lately, I have had a real boost in my quiet times and it’s because I have been using S.O.A.P. Not the soap you use to wash with, however. It’s a Bible study plan — let me explain. 

    S. – Scripture

    O. – Observation

    A. – Application

    P. – Prayer
