The Rock is a revolution in church. We focus on God and people, not tradition or ritual. We aren't interested in doing things the way they've always been done. Welcome to the revolution. Get more at www.experiencetherock.com
Before Jesus rescued us, we were lost — separated from God, without hope, and spiritually dead. But through His blood, we’ve been brought near, forgiven, and welcomed into His family. This message helps us remember who we were, celebrate who we are in Christ, and understand why it matters for how we live today. It needs to be with confidence, purpose, and gratitude.Part Eight

“Remember Where You Came From” (Ephesians 2:11-13)
Pastor Bill Young
June 14 & 15, 2025
Ephesians 2:8-10 is often called “The Gospel in a nutshell.” In this message, we'll unpack the beautiful reality that we're saved by grace alone. Additionally, these verses perfectly summarize the entire Christian life in just three verses: rejecting self-boasting and embracing our incredible new identity in Christ.Part Seven

“The Christian Life in Three Verses” (Ephesians 2:8-10)
Pastor Bryan D. Edwards

In Part Six of our Ephesians series, we discover the Good News of what God has done for us. While we were dead in our sins, He made us alive with Christ by grace. We’ll explore God’s rich mercy and great love, and what that means for our future in Christ.Part Six
Ephesians Series
“Rich in Mercy, Great in Love” (Ephesians 2:4-7)
Pastor Caleb Yetton
May 31 - June 01, 2025
Before we can grasp the Good News of the Gospel, we have to face the brutal reality. Apart from Christ, we are spiritually dead, following the world, the devil, and our own sinful desires. This message confronts the bad news head-on—because only when we understand our true condition can we see our desperate need for a Savior.Part Five
Ephesians Series
“First, the Bad News” (Ephesians 2:1-3)
Pastor Josh Whitney
May 24 & 25, 2025
The desire to know God. It's the heartbeat of genuine faith, isn't it? More than head knowledge, it's a deep yearning for connection with our Creator. In this message, we'll explore the Apostle Paul's prayer for the Church: that we would have a desire to grow deeper in our knowledge and confidence in God and the people He has called us to be.Part Four
Ephesians Series
"A Desire To Know God” (Ephesians 1:15-23)
Pastor Bryan D. Edwards
May 17 & 18, 2025
Do you ever feel stuck in cycles you can’t break? Sometimes, the ways we protect ourselves from pain become the very things that hold us back. In Part Three of “Obstacles to Healing from Trauma,” Jenny Squire explores the hidden defenses we build, how Jesus gently invites us into freedom, and practical steps toward lasting healing.
This message highlights seven spiritual blessings (found in Ephesians 1:11-14): we are chosen, predestined, and included in God's redemptive plan to glorify Him. Through faith, we are made part of His family, sealed with the Holy Spirit, and given the Spirit as a guarantee of our future inheritance. These truths give purpose, assurance, and a call to live for God’s glory.Part Three
Ephesians Series
“Spiritual Blessings (Part Two)” (Ephesians 1:11-14)
Pastor Bill Young
May 10 & 11, 2025
Paul reminds Believers in Ephesians 1:3–10 that we are spiritually loaded with blessings. We are chosen, adopted, redeemed, forgiven, and promised a glorious future — all because we are in Christ. Yet, many Christians live like spiritual paupers, obsessed with temporary earthly blessings instead of eternal riches. Our calling is to recognize, rejoice in, and actually live out the vast spiritual wealth God has already given us.Part Two

“The Church at Ephesus” (Ephesians 1:1-2)
Pastor Josh Whitney
April 26 & 27, 2025
What if Easter is more than colored eggs, chocolate, and bunny rabbits? What if it is much, much more? What if it's a true story about the life and death of a man named Jesus who really did rise from the dead? What if Jesus is indeed alive right now? This Easter, we’ll look at four compelling proofs that Jesus really rose from the dead. The truth about His radiant Resurrection might just change your life.Part Two

Before we can fully grasp the joy of Easter, we must first look up from the shadow of the cross and consider the profound suffering Jesus endured for us. In this message, we will follow Jesus to the cross, seeing first-hand the depth of His love and sacrifice that makes the hope of the resurrection so powerful.Part One

"The Shadow of the Cross"
Pastor Bryan D. Edwards
April 12 & 13, 2025
In this message, we’ll conclude our Galatians series by exploring the deep significance of the Cross, as described by the Apostle Paul. We’ll look at what the Cross means, its purpose as a solution for our sin, and the transformative results it brings to those who believe. The Cross provides forgiveness, the promise of eternal life, and the unwavering hope through faith in Jesus Christ.Part 20

In these verses in Galatians, Paul gives us a clear picture of what it means to sow and reap—not just in the natural world but also in our spiritual lives. Just as a farmer plants seeds and waits for the harvest, what we do with our lives (the choices, actions, and attitudes), will eventually produce fruit. Both good and bad. Part 19

In Galatians (Chapter 6), the Apostle Paul continues to show us how our faith can be lived out practically in our relationships with one another. Everything from restoring those who are being overtaken by sin to those who have burdens too heavy to bear. Our text today gives us some very powerful ways God is at work in us to love one another like Jesus loved us.Part 18

Being in community with other Believers is a wonderful thing. However, we can easily hurt each other and even sin against each other, can’t we? In those times, we need to know how to have the necessary hard conversations to protect and unify our relationships. In this message, we’ll talk about what that looks like and role-play some common scenarios you might encounter. The Rock Women

In Part 17 of our study of Galatians, we take a look at one of the most famous sections in the entire Bible — the Fruit of the Spirit and the works of the flesh. For every Christian, even though sealed with the Holy Spirit, we still battle our flesh. In this section of verses, the Apostle Paul gives a lot of practical advice on walking in the Spirit and killing the flesh.Part 17

In the early chapters of Galatians, Paul outlines how to achieve a right relationship with God. In Galatians 5, he urges readers to live out the new found freedom in Christ. The verses in this message specifically warn against both legalism and license. They encourage Believers to balance their Christian freedoms responsibly.Part 16

Some of the most profound, innate desires for us as brothers are to be protectors and defenders. And, if you’re a good man, to be a safe place for women and children. How could you become a man who rescues those around you from the slaughterhouse? In this message, you’ll learn what commitments you must make to be a real man.
In Galatians (Chapter 5), the Apostle Paul emphasizes the significant decision every Believer must make between freedom and slavery, liberty and bondage, life and death. The choice is ours: to embrace the freedom offered in Christ or to return to the shackles of the flesh, world, and the devil. In this message, we will look at the practical benefits (and detriments) of choosing either life-liberating freedom or burdensome slavery. Let’s choose wisely!Part 15

“Choose Freedom” (Galatians 5:1-6)
Pastor Bill Young
February 22 & 23, 2025
Draper
Have you ever felt abandoned, unseen, or alone? These feelings, often tied to trauma, can leave lasting scars. They make it difficult to trust others or form meaningful connections. But there is hope! We’ll explore what God’s Word says about healing and learn practical tools (from the mental health field) to navigate the journey toward wholeness.
In the closing verses of Galatians 4, Paul turns to the Old Testament to solidify his message. Throughout the chapter, he has contrasted the freedom found in faith in Christ with the bondage of striving for justification through efforts of the flesh. Now, he uses the story of Abraham’s two sons as an allegory—one symbolizing slavery to works, the other representing the true children of promise who are free by faith.Part 14

In Part 13 of our study of Galatians, Paul takes a break from his intellectual arguments for a personal appeal. This is a strong plea (from one friend to another) trying to win them back. There are many lessons for us in sharing the truth in love.Part 13

“A Friend’s Plea” (Galatians 4:12-20)

February 8 & 9, 2025

Paul writes to the Galatians (verses 4:1-11) to remind them that they should live as heirs and not as slaves in their relationship with Christ. They have been adopted by God, giving them freedom in Christ. They shouldn’t slip back into religious rules after experiencing true freedom. The same goes for us today—we can’t let legalism, old habits, or distractions pull us away from what Jesus has done for us. Let’s stay focused on Him and walk in the freedom He’s given us!Part 12

At the end of Chapter Three, the Apostle Paul continues to make the case that to add anything to the Gospel will only further separate you from God. In this message, we will see the freedom Believers have in Christ, knowing we never have to live under the bondage and guilt of the Law. Part 11

Giving should be a joyful experience. So why does it often feel like a burden? Jesus teaches us that “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” And the word “blessed” can be translated as “happy.” Is that how you’d describe your giving?

In Galatians 3:15-20, the Apostle Paul continues his argument that righteousness comes by faith and not obedience to the Law. He points to the covenant promise that God made with Abraham, which predates the Law of Moses. He also communicates that the covenant was ultimately made between God the Father and God the Son.

If you have ever opened up your life to others, then you’ve no doubt experienced the trials and discouragement that come along with it. As disciple-makers, we need to be aware of the reasons we may have to want to avoid making disciples. In this message, we'll tackle some of the excuses there in trying to avoid discipleship. We’ll also talk about the fuel we need to help us combat the life of non-discipleship.
In Part Nine of our Galatians study, the Apostle Paul takes us through some Old Testament passages. They show us the impossibility of keeping the Law perfectly and the necessity of Christ's death for us. Jesus truly became the Cursed One so we could be blessed. Part Nine

In the verses in this message, we see that Apostle Peter, one of the “pillars” of the church, is caving in to peer pressure and ends up being reprimanded by the Apostle Paul for his hypocrisy. This tense encounter changed the course of history and teaches us lessons that we can apply in our own lives today.Part Six

Jesus has a lot to say about discipleship. When Jesus called His disciples, He didn’t invite them to merely believe in Him. They were to follow Him with their whole lives. He encouraged those wanting to follow Him to “count the cost” of living for Him. He challenged them to let the old things in their former, dead lives "be buried.” We must count the cost of following Christ—which is death.
In Part Five of our study of Galatians, Paul continues his autobiography. He describes taking Titus to meet the apostles in Jerusalem. The question of Titus' circumcision is fundamental to what is required for salvation.Part Five

You (or someone you love) might struggle with the lasting effects of trauma. This could include physical symptoms as well as anxiety, or unhealthy relationship patterns. Together, we’ll explore many of the barriers that keep us stuck in pain and discover practical steps toward healing and renewal. This will be the first of several MHM’s designed to equip you with tools and wisdom to foster healing not only in your own life but also in the lives of those around you.
In order to truly grow in our understanding of what it means to be a biblical woman, we need a firm foundation in the Word of God. When we read it, we’re changed by the power of the Holy Spirit. We’re also guarded against false teachings and enabled to leave patterns of the world behind us. We need to pursue our relationship with Jesus in His Word. Join us as we talk more specifically about all of this.
In Part Three of our Galatians series, we will examine verses 11-17 of chapter one. In these verses, the Apostle Paul defends his apostleship, sharing his radical testimony. He also proclaims the validity of the Gospel message he preached, sharing that his message is from God alone.Part Three

Our theme for The Rock Men in (2024-2025) is 'Fully Devoted Disciples.' God has placed a burden on our pastors' hearts to go deeper in discipleship at The Rock Church, in response to Jesus' command to teach and make disciples. Together, we will explore what it means to be fully devoted to Christ, equipping ourselves not just for personal growth, but also as we lead, and our influence on others. These gatherings are more than just a meeting—they are a movement to become the men God has called us to be, fully committed to Him, His Word, and His Mission.
In Part One of our study of Galatians, we learn the history of the author and why he was so alarmed at the false teachers who were attempting to change the Gospel. Denying the rescue mission Jesus undertook for us is a dangerous lie that must be confronted!Part One

We’re continuing our theme this year with our journey on the road of Biblical Womanhood. What it means to be the women He has designed us to be. Before we can fully understand what He calls us to (and the true beauty of all He wants us to be), we need to understand the critical role submission (to our Creator) plays on our journey. It’s important (and freeing) it is to be yielded to Him daily. Join us as we “set the stage” for this upcoming year and see what’s coming our way.
In this message, we will reflect on who we once were and who we are now in Christ. Paul challenges us to remember our past, not with shame. But, with gratitude for the redemption and new identity we have in Jesus. Listen in as we explore what God has done for us and uncover the "why" behind the way we live and act in our world today.Part Seven

The transformative power of God’s grace is taught to us in the later verses of Titus 2. This grace, revealed through Jesus Christ, is more than just a theological idea—it’s a force that shapes our lives, calling us to godliness and purposeful living. Paul’s message reminds us that grace is freely given and we are called to live out a life of faith. This message challenges us to turn from godless living and embrace a life that reflects Christ’s love and righteousness, bearing fruit that honors God and draws others to Him.Part Six

We also saw how older men, older women, and younger women are to beautify their lives so as to attract people to our Savior.

Each day, we are faced with hundreds, if not thousands of pressing cultural issues. They call us to respond. With eager eyes, we look to the election in hopes that this will lead to real opportunity for change. But, when we are honest, we’ve seen continued ongoing disunity despite which political party is in office. The narrative becomes: “When the other party is no longer in office, we will find solutions to the problems, because the problem starts with them. Or, inversely, as long as my party stays in power, we will prevent complete catastrophe.” The country is in war over: gender/sexual equality/sexuality, the racial divide, climate, sexism, abortion/women’s right to choose/pro-life, the election, gun control, immigration. How are we to act? How are we to speak? How are we to engage with our world? As a Church, how are we to speak with one another? Is the solution found in a political party? How does Jesus want you to engage with Him on these types of important cultural conversations?Part One

As we conclude our Matter of Honor series, let me ask you a question — "Do you feel that you don't have enough money to honor God by being generous?" For many, the answer is oftentimes “no.” In this teaching, we’ll learn how to practically trust God with our giving by looking at three examples from the Bible (of people who excelled in generosity-even when it was difficult). We will learn that generosity expresses faith in God’s power to resupply our needs — especially when finances are tight.

Of all our fears in this world, there is none greater than the fear of death. Whether we are willing to admit it or not, it is everyone’s deepest fear. But what if something happened that meant we no longer had to fear it? What if something (or Someone) ushered in the death of death? Every Easter, Christians celebrate that when Jesus died on the cross, was buried and rose again on the third day, He conquered the power of sin and death. The empty tomb is the proclamation that death is forever defeated. There is a power stronger than the grave — found in the life of Jesus Christ.

The question of how to adequately deal with the pain and devastation of sin is an age old dilemma. In chapter 7 of Hebrews, we'll learn that the Aaronic Priesthood, the Law (good works) and even the priest Melchizedek can offer only temporary solutions. Each of these are ultimately weak and unable to heal us completely. But, Jesus is the real deal and His sacrifice is the one and only permanent solution! He is the "perfect" high priest, sacrifice and Savior for us.

The author of Hebrews has hesitated in making the point (and re-visiting the argument) that Jesus is our high priest forever, after the order of Melchizedek. He feared his audience was too spiritually immature to hear it. But, after some warnings, exhortations and encouragement in Chapter 6, he now addresses it.

But, more importantly, He promises that we can choose to experience God’s eternal rest in heaven (if we live a life of faith and humble obedience).

We have an incredible life to live on this earth — in response to who God is and what He has done for us. No doubt this world is filled with sin, suffering, and confusion. At times, there is chaos. But, the Lord has called us to enter into His rest. Yes, this means rest eternally. However, He has also invited us to share with Him, to partner with Him, as we journey alongside Him while on the earth. While He has invited us, He has also warned us against having a hard heart (which prevents us from entering the promise of this rest). Join us as we explore how we might encourage our own faith and the faith of those around us.

As we heed the warnings of the first five parts of Second Peter, Part Six culminates all of the letter. Peter gives us a final call to live a life of godliness as we wait for the Lord. As we wait, we are to grow in the grace and true knowledge of Jesus.

The New Testament often speaks of a Christian’s “walk” as symbolic of the decisions and lifestyle we choose as Believers. As we continue in our study of Second Peter, the apostle warns us against the dangers of false teachers who are intent on derailing our godly, spiritual walk. In this message, we’ll glean from Peter, a concern for the church and observe four warning signs that will help us avoid false teachers and stay on the path of righteousness.
Part Four Second Peter — True Knowledge Danger: Warning Signs! (2 Peter 2:13-22) Pastor Bill Young August 7 & 8, 2021 Draper

But, even among Christians, there is confusion about what the Kingdom of God really is. In this message, we'll clear up the confusion and examine what the Kingdom really is (and is not), and why it matters.
