Pastor Jonathan Laurie shares lessons from the story of Jonah, a reluctant evangelist who ran from God’s calling. Notes: Focus verse - Jonah 2 Matthew 23:25–27 (NKJV)“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you cleanse the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of extortion and self-indulgence. “Blind Pharisee, first cleanse the inside of the cup and dish, that the outside of them may be clean also. “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs which indeed appear beautiful outwardly, but inside are full of dead men’s bones and all uncleanness.” Jonah 4:3 (NLT)“Just kill me now, Lord! I’d rather be dead than alive if what I predicted will not happen.” #1 God Appoints Circumstances to Bring Us Back Sometimes we think God is punishing us. God paid Jesus back for our sin. Jonah was a historical, biblical character.2 Kings 14:25 Matthew 12:40 (NKJV)“For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.” God appoints circumstances and storms.Not to pay us back, but to bring us back. #2 God Still Sees in the DarkJonah 2:1 (NLT) Read: Jonah 2:1–9 (NLT) While Jonah sat in darkness inside the great fish, he prayed.God heard and delivered Jonah out of his fishy prison. Psalm 139:11–12 (NLT)I could ask the darkness to hide meand the light around me to become night—but even in darkness I cannot hide from you.To you the night shines as bright as day.Darkness and light are the same to you. Israel worshipped one God — the true Creator. Romans 12:1 (NKJV)I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. Read: Jonah 2:10 –3:5 (NKJV) #3 Saved From and Saved For God rescued Jonah from darkness so Jonah could reach others in darkness. 2 Corinthians 5:18–20 (NLT) Mark 16:15–16 (NLT)And then he told them, “Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone. Romans 10:14 (NLT)But how can they call on him to save them unless they believe in him? And how can they believe in him if they have never heard about him? And how can they hear about him unless someone tells them? Learn more about this year's Harvest Crusade! --- Learn more about Greg Laurie and Harvest Ministries at harvest.org.

In this heartfelt and faith-filled message, Pastor Jonathan shares a deeply personal testimony of walking through months of unexplained illness that left him debilitated, discouraged, and clinging to God's promises. Through raw honesty and gentle humor, he reveals how the Lord walked with him through the storm — even when he couldn't feel His presence — and how healing came both through faith and wisdom.Out of that journey flows a timely word titled “Eternity on the Mind,” a call to live with an eternal perspective in a world consumed by the temporary. With clarity and conviction, Pastor reminds us that what we're going through now is not the whole story — and that one shift in our mindset can completely change how we walk through life's challenges.If you're in a storm, caring for someone who is, or simply needing a reset on what truly matters, this message will strengthen your spirit and help anchor your heart in eternity.
This week, Pastor Jonathan leads Restoration to pray through Psalm 100 with "grace-filled gratitude."
A friend was just telling me about having several family members visiting here in AK for the summer. He purchased one of those enormous water floats designed for tons of people so they could enjoy it during their stay. Towards the end of summer, the float developed a small leak but made it through their visit. Even though they had used it all summer long, the store they bought it from had a return policy stating they could still bring the float back if it was faulty, so they did. In telling me all of this, his demeanor and tone suggested feelings of guilt even though the store's return policy clearly stated they basically expected him to return the product. This week, we are getting into God's "return policy", learning to live in His grace, His freedoms, and why we don't need to go back to living like we did before His adoption of us that Pastor Jonathan spoke about last week. Christ exchanged His life for ours and His grace for our guilt. 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".

Often when we think of the healing miracles Jesus did we think of leprosy.

“Be Filled and Flow with the Holy Ghost” | Pastor Jonathan M. Anderson, Sr. | July 2,2025 by Pastor Jonathan M. Anderson, Sr.
什麼時候才會升遷、什麼時候才能加薪、什麼時候才會遇到對的另一伴!為什麼我該做的都做了,卻總是「等」不到! 我們都很討厭「等待」,常常在等候中感到焦慮、抱怨神總是對我們的急迫無感!但或許是因為我們常常期待結果,卻忽略過程的重要。 在等候與延遲滿足的過程裡,其實是在訓練我們相信神的良善,並給祂主導權。 如果我們沒有學會忍耐,我們跟神只是建立利益交換的關係。讓我們透過這篇主日講道,建立新的眼光,與神恢復更真實的關係!

Pastor Jonathan casts vision for the summer with the start of this series about how Jesus modeled the importance of discipleship.
Today's epistle lesson comes from Paul's letter to the Galatians, in which he reminds them that true freedom comes not from doing what we want, but from love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, and self-control. Pastor Jonathan further explains that, while we may not know where our road through life will lead us, living as Paul suggests will keep us on the path of our mission: to Live and Love like Jesus. Where will that road go? Who Knows?

Sunday Night Word - The Power of Yes!
"Come Into The Ark" | Pastor Jonathan M. Anderson, Sr. | June 22, 2025 by Pastor Jonathan M. Anderson, Sr.
Pastor Jonathan dispels some myths and asks some critical questions about heaven. Presented Sunday, June 22, 2025.
Reader: Phillip Ince Preacher: Jonathan Smith Recalling the big picture message from the first week, we are ordinary people empowered by the Holy Spirit to witness to the Lord Jesus to the ends of the earth. In today's message from Acts 4:32-5:11, we see how the early church shared their possessions. It was not communism where everthing you own belongs to the state, rather it was "what is mine is yours". However, whereever this is good, there is the opportunity for evil and deception. We see this is the behaviour of Ananias and his wife Sapphira. This is a difficult passage, and Pastor Jonathan explains this to us with what the real sin of Ananias and Sapphira was. Red Door is an Anglican Church in Melbourne, Australia. We exist to be a community of people helping people make all of life all about Jesus.

Woodland Campus | Pastor Jonathan shares on the importance in knowing that we are children of God before anything else, emphasizing discipleship and mentorship in homes.
In this sermon Pastor Jonathan discusses how the task on Trinity Sunday is not to explain God. Instead the Trinity is the best way to explain the breadth and depth of God's work in the world. It is a dynamic lens for seeing God interacting with our world. It reveals the path of following Jesus.
Continuing our series called Jesus: The One And Only, Pastor Jonathan teaches on listening to God's voice.
