The Rock Church - Weekend Messages w/ Pastor Miles McPherson (Audio)

In Part 6 of the We Need to Talk series, Hayden reminded us that our condition doesn't determine our position in Christ. He unpacked the internal struggle we all face between who we are and who we want to be—and how our true identity is found when we live by the Spirit, not the flesh. Hayden encouraged us to renew our mind, our confidence, and our peace by embracing who God says we are. No matter the battle within, we are still God's children, fully known and deeply loved.

Our Father In Heaven

In Part 4 of We Need to Talk, Pastor Travis shared how healing begins when our goal is restoration, not being right. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 5, he reminded us that God gave us the ministry of reconciliation—meaning we're called to bring people together, not push them away. He broke down five keys to healthy communication: the right tone, the right time, the right trust, the right truth, and the right team. Our words carry the power of life and death, and when spoken with grace and love, they can restore even the most fractured relationships. It's not about winning arguments—it's about winning people.

In Part 3 of We Need to Talk, Pastor Darren brought a powerful word about relationships and identity. He reminded us that the first step to finding the right person isn't about looking outward—it's about looking inward. The best way to find “the one” is to become the one. That means allowing God to transform your thinking, unfollowing your heart when it leads you away from His truth, and focusing more on the One who makes you worth having.

In Part 2 of We Need to Talk, Pastor Travis reminded us that anxiety and depression are not our identity—they're signals pointing us back to God.

that when life feels overwhelming, God is our steady Rock. He taught that biblical hope is a confident trust in God's promises, presence, power, and the proven resurrection of Jesus. Through Scripture and real-life illustrations, we were reminded that hope anchors us, even in seasons of anxiety, grief, or uncertainty. Pastor Mickey challenged us to shift our trust from people or circumstances to God alone. The message closed with an invitation to rest in Jesus and experience the peace only He can give.

In this sermon, Pastor Travis spoke on the importance of living out your faith through the act of water baptism. He explained that baptism is a public declaration of our inward commitment to Jesus and a step of obedience for every believer. Baptism identifies us with Christ and the larger family of faith, marking us, belonging to God. It also symbolizes a fresh start—leaving behind the old life and stepping into a new one. This message encourages immediate action, challenging believers not to delay in taking this vital step.

This Easter Pastor Miles reminds us that Jesus fulfilled every promise He made. He shared how Jesus told His disciples He would be betrayed, crucified, and rise again—and He did, just as He said. Through Scripture, Pastor Miles walks us through five key promises Jesus made: to die for our sins, provide access to the Father, forgive us when we repent, give us abundant life, and offer eternal life. The resurrection is proof that every word Jesus spoke can be trusted. This message is a celebration of God's faithfulness and the hope we have because Jesus is alive!

In the final part of the Just 1 series, Pastor Miles shared that Divine Appointments are moments orchestrated by God through His process, designed to bless His people and fulfill His greater purpose. He encouraged us to ask God to reveal what He's doing, recognize the potential blessing in every encounter, and embrace the assignment tied to His purpose.

In Part five of the Just 1 series, Pastor Miles unpacks the heart of the Gospel and what it means to truly respond to it. Teaching from Luke 15 and the story of the Prodigal Son, we're reminded that although we rebel and ruin the relationship God created us for, He made a way back through Jesus. Jesus lived the life we should've lived, died the death we deserved, and rose again to give us new life. Through repentance and faith, we can receive the gift of salvation—and it all starts with being ready to return to the Father.

In Part four of this series, Pastor Miles explained "The Gospel Text". He presented the gospel through the "R" framework: created for Relationship with God, our Rebellion led to Ruin. Christ came as the perfect Role model, paid our Ransom through his death, and proved eternal life through his Resurrection—fulfilling God's plan for our redemption.

In Part three of this series, Pastor Miles explained "The Gospel Context" by highlighting three crucial points: God created humans in His image for a loving relationship, pridefully we rebelled against His authority as shown through Adam and Eve's disobedience, and this sin ruined our access to God's blessings, causing separation and fear.

In Part 2 of this series, Pastor Travis taught that true fulfillment comes from Jesus, not relationships or past mistakes.
