Christmas is not just a feel good story about lights, songs, and a baby in a manger. It is a real story that stepped into real pain, real loss, and real human grief. In this message, we slow down and look beneath the surface of the Christmas narrative to see how the birth of Jesus collided with broken lives, political fear, and unimaginable sorrow. From Mary and Joseph's costly obedience to the heartbreaking reality of loss surrounding Jesus' arrival, we are reminded that Christmas has always carried both joy and sorrow at the same time. This message speaks directly to anyone who finds the season heavy, confusing, or painful and wonders how it can still be called merry.   Did you accept Christ today?

Pastor Josh preaches a message about the shepherds who were visited by an angel from Luke 2. 

Pastor Josh explains that we celebrate the birth of Christ in order to make God known. John 18:37, 12:46, 17:3, 10:10; Matt. 9:13, 20:28; Luke 19:10; 1John 3:8

In this Advent message, Pastor Josh reflects on Marys song of praisethe Magnificatand the upside-down way God works in the world. From Elizabeth to Mary, the salvation story begins not with power or perfection, but with women the world overlooked. God steps into imperfect lives and transforms them, lifting up the lowly and working through humility, faithfulness, and courage. God loves lifting up the lowly. God delights in celebrating those the world overlooks.Mary, once seen as invisible and insignificant, becomes the one through whom God brings salvation into the world. Her declarationMy soul magnifies the Lordreveals a calling for all of us: to make God more visible through lives that build others up rather than compete for the top. In a culture driven by comparison and hierarchy, this sermon invites us to ask different questions: Who is invisible around us? Who can we lift up? And how might our lives magnify Gods love, joy, and justice this Advent?

Pastor Josh speaks of the three wise men following the Star of Bethlehem. Jesus is the Bright and Morning Star.

This conversation is especially helpful for young men sensing a call to ministry, Bible college students, and pastors reflecting on their own early steps of service. Josh shares candid insights on preparation, growth, and trusting the Lord in the work He assigns.

Hope in Jesus-Pastor Josh Pate by Eastgate Church

What if the sacrifice God is calling you to isn't about your bank account, but your emotional life? In this episode, we dig deeper into the Biblical concept of "laying it at the feet of Jesus” - something the Wise Men did a couple thousand years ago with their gifts, and something that we still need to practice today. So what does practical, everyday, sacrificial discipleship look like? Pastor Josh and Katie Rose unpack the small but surprisingly difficult sacrifices they've had to make, and how it's completely changed the way they view God.

Pastor Josh teaches from Romans 10.

Sometimes Christmas looks like lights and laughter and mistletoe, and sometimes it brings the parts of life we do not talk about until we have to. In this message we take a deeper look at Joseph and discover what to do when relationships are complicated, tension rises, and you feel the pull to react instead of respond. Joseph shows us a man who faced confusion, disappointment, and a story that made no sense at first, yet he chose obedience and honor in a moment that could have wrecked everything. His life gives a picture of how God forms us through the people around us, even the difficult ones.   Did you accept Christ today?

Matt Shiles returns to the Podcast to lead Pastor Josh through a discussion of the first sermon in our Advent series (Journey to Bethlehem), entitled "Bethlehem: House of Bread". Matt and PJ talk about the allegory that was set up throughout the sermon, where Jesus is actually the better Bethlehem.    

In today's powerful message, Pastor Josh teaches us what it truly means to develop greater faith — the kind of faith that sees the future the way God sees it. Drawing from Matthew 18, Mark 4, and Romans 12, he explains that faith is not the absence of fear. It's choosing courage over cowardice and trusting that God is writing a good story even when life feels uncertain.

From the Patriots to The Muppet Christmas Carol to the small habits that transformed their lives, tune in for a discussion designed to challenge and equip your faith this holiday season.

In this first message of our Christmas series Why So Merry?, we look at Mary's moment in Luke 1 when she felt confused and disturbed. Christmas is full of lights, food, movies, and all the things we enjoy, but it is also full of real life. Some are celebrating while others are carrying grief, tension, anxiety, or unanswered questions. Pastor Josh shows how Mary teaches us to respond to God instead of reacting to everything around us. Even when life feels messy or unclear, God is present and moving.   Did you accept Christ today? Fill out our digital connection card: https://churchontherock.net/connect-card
