Red Rocks Church Weekend Messages

Doug Wekenman encourages us that yes, we can change and decide what story we will tell through the grace of Jesus. He walks us through the Bible story in which Jesus heals the paralyzed man at the pool, showing us that turning point in that story, as well as our own stories, is whether we want to change.

Pastor Shawn Johnson reminds us that the difference between a messy Christmas and an amazing Christmas is the lens with which we view it. A good Christmas is not defined by what has happened to us this season, but is based on what God’s done for us by sending us Jesus. Merry Christmas, Red Rocks Church!

The things we use to help us avoid pain are never-ending—addiction, anger, anxiety, comparison, or distraction; drugs, food, gambling, or social media. Doug Wekenman encourages us to find freedom from those things by feeling the pain and letting God heal it rather than just cover it up.

It feels like we are living in a chronic state of distraction. Doug Wekenman preaches about how to destroy the things that distract us so we can focus on what matters.
