Church on the Rock - Palmer, AK
Have you ever had someone "all up in your business?" Someone who inserted themselves into your personal affairs, was attempting to make decisions for you, or tried to offer unwanted advice? This is a little bit how the book of James feels when reading it. James seems to be getting all up in our spiritual lives by challenging, and making us take a good hard look at how genuine faith should produce genuine fruit in the life of every believer! The heartbeat of Church on the Rock is to help people discover how they can LOVE God and LOVE one another, LIVE with passion, purpose and freedom, and LEAD others to this same experience in Jesus. We simply say, “helping others Love, Live, and Lead in Jesus".

How we see the world shapes how we feel, and transforms the way we live. Seeing how things were framed by James, the brother of Jesus, gives us a perspective that is meant to mature our faith. James points out that the struggle is real for us, but we also have an opportunity to experience great joy and gain endurance through troubled circumstances. James urges us to stay humble and hold loosely to our plans. Life is fast, so aligning our plans with God's will is essential in building a healthy framework for our lives. We can't wait to see what God has for each and every one of us in The Book of James.

3,2,1, ACTION... THAT'S WHAT THIS SUNDAY IS ALL ABOUT, ACTION! We have been dreaming, scheming, and talking a lot lately about our One More initiative.

God has been doing some amazing things, and we believe it is only the beginning of what is to come as we step into this historic moment as a church. Don't miss out!

WAIT WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT THIS SUNDAY??? Many people seem to appreciate Sunday sermons, direct conversations, even being challenged regarding deeply personal issues, like forgiveness, parenting, and even topics like marriage seem to be topics which are largely appreciated when taught on. But I've always found it intriguing to see how nervous we get when talking about money, especially in church. I have also discovered that the Scriptures do not avoid this topic in the slightest. It's almost as if God knows how sensitive we are about this issue and thus He jumps right into the deep end of discomfort with us. So the question is, do you trust the Father's motivations when it comes to the issue of your money? Let's unpack the uncomfortable together! ------------------------------------------- The heartbeat of Church on the Rock is to help people discover how they can LOVE God and LOVE one another, LIVE with passion, purpose and freedom, and LEAD others to this same experience in Jesus.

WHAT IF WE TOLD YOU THAT JOY, EVEN IN THE MIDDLE OF TRIALS, LEADS TO GENEROSITY? That's exactly what we're diving into this week, based on 2 Corinthians 8:2. This isn't just poetic language. It's powerful truth when your joy is grounded in Jesus, no matter your circumstances. Jesus lived it. Paul preached it. Now we get to walk in it.

Keeping our focus on God all the time can be a real challenge. Life is full of clutter and distractions, and often those things can get prioritized above God. Even if we did not intentionally mean to, we can easily slip into getting our focus off God and onto other things, which is why developing a habit of fasting can be very beneficial. Incorporating prayer and fasting into our spiritual journey with Christ can be one tool we can use to help keep our focus on God!

The Bible is the story of God's goodness! In light of His goodness, our sinful choices become all the more tragic. Yet, no one was able to resist the temptation to sin from Adam to us...no one but one man, Jesus. Because He endured our punishment, we are able to enjoy God's presence again. Better yet, because his sacrifice was sufficient we get to stand before God spotless. Not by our own righteousness, but because of His. This means that when we fail we run to the father not from him! This means that when we need grace the most we go to God not hide from Him! This week we will unpack the last chapter in the story of the gospel. We will discover why holiness matters, and I promise you, the reason will surprise and delight you!

IF YOU'RE LIKE ME..... you've probably wondered, HOW CAN I CONSISTENTLY LIVE THE LIFE JESUS INVITES ME INTO??? I have good news, we were never meant to live like Jesus in our own strength. The only way to live like Jesus is to be filled with the Spirit of Jesus... THE HOLY SPIRIT!

No matter how many carrots you eat, seeing in the dark is hard. From the fall to the fulfillment, God has been painting pictures and making a way. This week we will be looking at things that were once a shadow and dimly lit in the Old Testament book of Leviticus, become as bright as an Alaska Summer Day in the New Testament book of Romans. We're unpacking who Jesus truly is, in a way you've never heard before.

The message of the Gospel does not begin with our sin and brokenness, it begins with God's greatness and goodness. Before we can fully comprehend the "Good News", there are some things we have to understand about God Himself. As we launch into this 5-week series, our desire is that you would discover how truly good and incredible the Gospel is and that it would reshape how you think and live as a follower of Jesus. So, buckle up my friends and don't miss a single week as we take a deep dive into the book of Romans. I can't wait to see what Jesus has to say!

Do you like when your skills, knowledge, or abilities are being tested? Whether we like it or not, testing can be beneficial to gauge whether we really are as good at something or have as much understanding about something as we thought. When it comes to our faith, the apostle Paul encourages us to regularly “test and examine our faith.” In Paul's final words to the Corinthian church, we are going to discover what having a genuine faith is, and why it is so important for the life of every follower of Jesus.

Jesus extends a terrifying invitation in Mark 8:34…“And calling the crowd to him with his disciples, Jesus said to them, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.” In other words, the first two steps on the pathway to following Jesus are saying no my own desires that are contrary to Jesus, then letting my life be shaped by the sacrificial love of Jesus displayed on the cross. In other words, I'm invited to live a cross shaped life…the “cruciform” life. This week we will be unpacking Paul's words in 2nd Corinthians to discover why this matters and how we can do it!
