Rock of Grace Family Ministries in Kinsman, OH is led by Pastor Jordan Biel. Our church is leading people to follow Jesus together. Our strategy is Life Groups & Church Planting. Join us!
Pastor David Brock shares with us what it means to have a heart (and mind) of a child and to let the Holy Spirit interrupt our plans and help us imagine. He wants to not only teach us what is right (righteous, good) but also what is the new or creative way to go about something. He helps us see a brighter future then step into it. Are you letting the Spirit help you imagine?
What are the 9 Manifestation Gifts and why should believers anticipate being used by God in them? Why does it matter and how can we begin to be open to letting God use as an extension cord of His love and power to others?
What is the Baptism of the Spirit and why is it important to experience this gift that Jesus promised and told us to seek?
The Bible tells us how to build a marriage that lasts. The Bible tells us that men in particular, need to feel respected and that women need to feel loved. Is there a nuance? A difference? I think so. Let's talk about.
Is God just a crutch? Isn't Jesus just a crutch for the weak? Kinda. When we realize we are ALL weak and in need of a Savior, God is beginning to open our heart to the beauty and power of Jesus. We all need Jesus! The godless. The religious. The hopeless.
In between the Resurrection and Rapture, it takes faith. But our JESUS is trustworthy! Put your faith in Him!
Often the very place we want to go least is where Jesus asks us to go and offer grace. Why is it so many Christians want to go overseas on a missions trip but not go home and offer grace and mercy to family? I believe it's because those we love the most have the power to hurt us the greatest. These wounds need healed and grace needs given. If we really want to follow Jesus, we have to get up, take our mat and go home.
In week 3 of our series on our thought life, we're talking about thought habits that if we're honest, are just plain sinful. Gossip, Pornography/Lust, Anger, these things, if left unattended, will ruin our relationships - the very people God blessed us with. God wants to RENEW our minds to speak LIFE to people, and that begins with our SPOUSE. Often Christians treat the person they love the most, the worst. They point out the negative only, they complain without giving compliments, they get argumentative and defensive when their spouse tries to have a difficult conversation about a needed change. This shouldn't be, church. We can do better. We can allow God's Spirit to transform our thinking habits which will transform our speaking habits and bring LIFE to our HOMES.
In week 1 of this series, we're trying to assess our thoughts and whether our thoughts (that become our words) are bringing life and blessing to others OR are they tearing others down and burning bridges. Let's go to God's Word together.
LISTEN REPENT BELIEVE OBEY ENJOY What it means to follow Jesus.
If we really want to follow Jesus it means we have to take our eyes off of so many other things... getting ahead, getting approval or affection from everyone, running the rat race... Following Jesus means truly fixing all our hearts affection on Him and Him only. So much that we even help OTHERS see His beauty!
What if we look at life like a song? Father God is the Composer. The Holy Spirit is the Conductor. & The Song is all about Jesus!
Did you know that on the other side of striving and strife and worry is TRUST. Trust in the Good Shepherd who is taking care of you. He is EMMANUEL.
Pastor Jordan takes us into the Christmas season looking at Jesus' statement "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." www.RockofGrace.org #FollowJesusTogether
Today we're talking about the rest and authority and peace that only comes in Jesus Christ. There's no need to strive when we find how loved we are by the Father! #FollowJesusTogether
Week 1, we taught on the Rapture - when Jesus comes to take the church to Heaven. Week 2, we're talking about the Tribulation, the 7 years following the rapture, and the Millennial Reign of Jesus Christ. Who comes back with Jesus to set up the new heavens and new earth? What happens during the tribulation?
Today in our end times series "Our Hope and Future" we talk about the pivotal event soon to take place, the Rapture of the church. 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 "For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord. Therefore, encourage one another with these words."
Do you realize the authority you have in Christ? Do you know the POWER of prayer? Join us in today's episode, where we unpack the Great Commission and what it means to use our words to declare what JESUS can do!
All month we talked about the unseen realities of the unseen realm. Angels and Demons, heaven and hell, are contending for us - the image of God. Some unseen realities are our own doing - our own sin we're hesitant to admit or repent of. In today's service, we talk about how to recognize these unseen villans of greed, envy, and pride and repent of them and allow the Father to forgive us and fill us with His love.
Is it possible that many Christians are unaware of "satan's schemes" even though the Bible tells us "We are not unaware of satan's schemes..."? Many Christians don't realize that often they've made a person the enemy instead of realizing 'people are never the enemy; they're the mission.' Many Christians don't realize the oppression and heaviness and sleeplessness is sometimes a spiritual attack. Many Christians don't realize their authority in Christ Jesus to set the atmosphere and remove any demonic voice and oppressive, lying spirit. What does the Bible say about demons and how are we to respond? www.FollowJesusTogether.com #followjesustogether
In our Unseen Realities sermon series, we're talking about the unseen realm. Today's sermon: Angels!
Are there demons and angels and why? How do I discern a spiritual attack from just a bad day?
Often it's in our home where we first get the opportunity to obey Scripture and be Christlike. However, we fall short of what desires because we need reminded of the structure that God designed called Family. There's an all out attack on the family unit. It may seem cultural - as if it just sorta happened because other countries became so liberal in their view of marriage and family. But is it just cultural? Or is something bigger at play? I believe Satan has unleashed demonic forces that are distorting what "love" is to millions of people. I believe demons are literally at work, compelling social media organizers to push a certain message and agenda on America's children. Don't believe me? Check out the PragerU experiment where they pretended to be a child creating a YouTube Kids account. Within seconds, they were shown multiple videos pushing a homosexual lifestyle as well as drag-queens and transgender messages. Why? Why would children be given that content? Why was the algorithm coded that way? These are important questions we should be asking ourselves. Not because we're conspiracy theorists but because we are Christians. Parents need to care about what their children are learning. Parents need to teach their children what the Word says. Father's need to bring kind and clear discipline to their children. Husbands need to show care and love for their wives. Wives need to show respect and honor to their husbands praising their efforts to provide and defend their family. The Word guides on what the family is and how it is to function. Are we listening?
I felt this was a powerful word for those of you waiting on a miracle or are in the midst of some stressful situations right now. Hear the word of the Lord! Wait upon the Lord and He will give you strength! His banner over you is love. Nothing in this world is stronger than His love. His love drives out all fear and worry and stress.

With all the lies permeating our culture regarding our identity, sexual identity and personal value, what does the Bible say? Join us for this insightful and timely word from our Executive Pastor, David Brock.
God won't say "Well done, good and successful servant." What He cares about is faithfulness. The fulfillment of God's promises won't be fully seen until we enter Heaven. #followJesustogether #prosperitygospel #TheGospel #faithfulness Join us on a Sunday
In Part 1 of our Guess Who series, we're talking about our identity in being God's people - in covenant with Him. #followJesustogether
How can we win the spiritual war for the next generation? More blacksmiths! #followJesustogether
Have you ever heard someone use the word "anointed" or "anointing" and wondered what that means? Today, we'll talk about this sacrament that can be misunderstood in many circles of religion world-wide. Pastor Jordan makes it simple today. Join us in the fourth week of our series Spirit and Sacrament, an invitation to levity and liturgy, the sacred and the spontaneous! RockofGrace.org Join us on facebook!
What does the Bible say about worship? Why is it so important for us to worship together on a regular basis? We were made to WORSHIP. We were made to worship GOD. We were made to worship God TOGETHER. We would never say that we have idols in our lives. But, there are times when a thing or person steals all our attention and focus. Anything we fixate on and prioritize the most can certainly become an idol and rob us of what we were made for - affection and adoration of JESUS!
What does the Bible tell us about Communion? Why is it important to continue taking this sacrament and keeping it sacred and how do we let the Spirit bring this to life? Will Collens brings a great word for us today!
What if we welcomed the spontaneous moving of the Holy Spirit but also honored the sacraments given to us in the Bible? Too many in the charismatic church have abandoned the sacred elements of communion and baptism. Others have placed so much equity in their liturgy have quenched the Holy Spirit. Is it possible to value both liturgy and organic expressions love? Is it possible to have both eucharist and verbal communion with God in a spontaneous, loving way? Yes! God's Word gives us a blueprint for both Spirit and Sacrament. One does not negate the other but rather, the Spirit gives LIFE to the sacrament and turns the mundane into melody! Visit us on Sunday!
Pastor Jordan teaches from Ephesians 4-5, Romans 7-8 and Philippians 4 about the gift that only God can give - a sound mind. What if your thoughts of worry and fear could be replaced by joy and peace?
Sometimes it's nice to just have the live worship from Sunday be able to playback without the video. We pray you enter into His presence as you worship King Jesus with us. www.RockofGrace.org
Why is it that so many people, including Christians, are lacking peace and joy in their life? We'll look at Proverbs 23:7 and Philippians 4 and find that God wants to renew our minds and change our neural pathways. We have thought patterns. The question is, Are they patterns God wants us to have and do they glorify Him?
God sees you! God loves you! Place your life in the hands of the ONE who created you and knows you best! Key Scripture: Psalm 139 Want to visit Rock of Grace? Find locations and times and more info at www.RockofGrace.org
What does it mean to truly BE the church that Jesus started in the book of Acts? Do we have the diversity that they had? Do we have the compassion that they had? Do we have the unity they had? Do we have the passion to reach the lost that they had? Let's ask God to restore that! #FollowJesusTogether www.RockofGrace.org
What does it mean to make a disciple and why is it important?
What does it mean to place the Gospel at the CENTER of our lives? What does it mean to live as Jesus said "Building our life on the rock" as opposed to "the sand?" That's what we're discussing today. If you want your life to truly matter - to take on the meaning God intends, let's listen and learn together! #FollowJesusTogether Learn more about Rock of Grace and our campus locations at RockofGrace.org
What is this verse really about? Can we truly trust in God's love and promises even when we don't understand what He allows? Ultimately, we will experience the fullness of His love when we enter His presence in Heaven! THEN and THERE we will see all His promises truly fulfilled.
A Hope and a Future! Sounds great! But what does it mean? Pastor David Brock and Jordan Biel collaborate on this message to bring you the truth of what that verse actually means. Why did Jesus promise "the world will hate you" once you unify with Him? How can we be both "hated" yet have the happy life that Jeremiah 29:11 promises us?
Are you letting the Holy Spirit guide you like Jesus said He would? Join us on a Sunday! www.RockofGrace.org

Greg Laurie when interviewed was asked what are the signs of revival or a 'Jesus Revolution' and his response makes up our outline for this sermon. Join us as we pray for God to pour out His Spirit and give us another Jesus Revolution in our day!
What can we learn from this story of Phillip?
Our church is on a mission! We're leading people to follow Jesus together and that means that we all can lead someone to have faith in Jesus Christ! Today we talk about our opportunity to actually lead someone in a prayer of salvation. Scripture says that some plant and some water and some reap the harvest. It's time that believers begin to see their opportunity to lead someone in a prayer of salvation. Often the Holy Spirit is already softening their heart and convicting them - that something is off - something needs to change - and you and I have that joy of being "ambassadors of Christ" as Paul put it and becoming "ministers of reconciliation" bringing people to a place of unity with Father God through faith in His Son Jesus Christ! #FollowJesusTogether
So often Christians are blind to the needs around them - namely the need for their coworkers or neighbors to hear the Gospel - to know Jesus! In this sermon, Pastor David walks us thru scriptures where God challenges us to be His ambassadors and messengers of truth to a lost and confused and hurting world. #FollowJesusTogether RockofGrace.org Join us for Easter! 2 Services!
Why are so many Christians unwilling to part with their money and give to the Kingdom? Jesus said that it's because it's a matter of the heart. What if we truly gave God control - total Lordship - including our finances? I wonder what freedom we'd walk in! I wonder what God could do to further His Kingdom with our faithful giving?! Heaven only knows! #Generosity #Faithfulness #Giving #FollowJesusTogether
Just a sneak peak into the upcoming worship album recorded live at Rock of Grace.
So often American "faith" or "gospel" isn't a faith that works around the world. What is true faith? Faith that lasts through the storms of life? We can learn so much from this story of when Jesus visited His disciples while they were suffering through a storm. #Faith #Christianity #FollowJesusTogether
