The Rock Church Temecula Valley

What happened to passion in our prayers? It is almost like we pray weak, anemic prayers. That is not how God intended our prayer lives to be! We should be praying bold, passionate prayers that shake the world. 

Why is it that we as Christians struggle to pray? Prayer fuels our relationship with God. Prayer produces courage in our lives. As Pastor Hennie shares the word this week, prepare your hearts for a challenging but powerful message. 

In Exodus chapter 4, God asks Moses a great question, "What is in your hand?" Many times in our lives, we can feel like what we have isn't good enough that we are not adequately equipped to handle what is before us. However, when God asked Moses this question, he was giving us a guide to our own lives. That all we have is all, we need. 

Submission is one of the most misunderstood words of the English language. We have become so programmed to think that it is a curse word of a sort. However, we find through the word of God that submission frees us rather then imprisons us. Join us as Pastor Landen shares about the story of Moses and how we are all in need of a current update. 

Love must be our highest goal. God's metric system is simply how we are measured in being like Jesus. Maturity is essential to the life of a believer. Are we becoming more like Jesus by becoming more mature, or are we satisfied in the current status of our lives? When compared to knowing Jesus, everything else is a loss. 

This week we take a look into God's metric for maturity. The thing Christians should always measure to, which is Jesus. And to be like Jesus, we have to go through what Jesus went through. Maturity is always on purpose, and it only happens through careful and attentive work. 

Everyone needs "soul food." No, not the music or even the actual food, but things that feed your soul. Weary souls make for weary people. So what are you putting in your soul? Join us as we go through a guide into feeding our souls with the right nourishment. 

We are experts in stating what we believe but novices in living it out. This week we are challenged to look at our life tree. From heart to reward, every part of the tree means something different. To bring about change, we have to be honest about where we are at. Start today with a plan for change and see where God takes you this year!

Change can be difficult, but it is essential in our lives. Change cause conflict, it causes resistance, in creates uncertainty, and it challenges relationships. However, when we walk in the lights of God, we see the truths of God's word. So start to walk in the light!

We are all traveling somewhere; the question is where. Where does the path you are on end? As we go into the new year, we prepare for a change in our lives. Nothing new can come from maintaining the status quo. So as we prepare for 2020, we have to ask hard questions to get us ready for what God has in store for us.

We have been on this journey of the characters in the Christmas story, and today we talk about the wise men. While they may not have the most screen time in the story, their lives and journey share some critical biblical truths. 

As we continue our Great Wait series, we take a journey into the life of Joesph. Even though Joesph's life wasn't recorded in great detail, we still have the right amount of info to piece some essential biblical truths. 

We are to live in harmony with everyone. So many times, we have discord with people inside and outside of the church, but that isn't the life Jesus intended for us. Pastor Hennie shares from Romans 14 and Romans 15 on how we are to live our lives with each other. 

What do you do when you face incredible challenges and problems? Everyone has issues; the reality is that we don’t always deal with them the right way. How we handle our issues, says a lot about who we are as people. When we mishandle situations, it shows our level of maturity. To face our problems, we have to face them with God because we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us.

As thanksgiving looms over our shoulders, we must remember what it means to live a life of thanks. We can become so preoccupied with things that don’t matter, but in this season, we must fix our hearts and give thanks for all that God has given us. We need to stand to attention all the things that God has done for us. Sometimes we focus too much on the prosperity, instead of focusing on what God h...

When it comes to God's grace we sometimes think we need to earn it. However, the amazing thing about God is that he gives it to us freely. It is our responsibility to receive it. 

As we come to the conclusion of our generation campaign we look to the future. Guest speaker Pastor Luke Cobrae shares what it means to give God our first. If we want to be a united generation, we must first seek after God with everything within us. 

We aren't perfect people. Whether you are Gen X or Millennials, all of us have our challenges. But as time has changed so must our approach with each other. Pastor Hennie and Pastor Miranda share practical ways to reach out to the next generation. 

Do you find it challenging to connect with other generations? This week we have 2 Rock Youth Ministry Leaders, and three students share practical tips on how we can all connect better.   

What Is Kingdom Culture? Simply put, kingdom culture is being and living like Jesus. To have kingdom culture it means having our identity in Christ Jesus. We have to Godly character in order to embrace kingdom culture. We have to live it in order to pass it on. 

What are the things dividing us? Many divides have been created in the generations right now. This week a panel of different people from different ages tackle this topic. Looking at jobs, relationships, and fear, we look at four different perspectives to build bridges between the generations. 

What Is your generation responsible for? As we continue our generations campaign we take a look into the lives of Moses and Joshua, we find that both had certain responsibilities as the leaders of their generation. Not all generations are called to the same thing, but all are called in some capacity. 

The start of our generations campaign! God is not over one generation but all of them. Four different generations represented — all of us having a conversation about how we can relate to one another better. 

Look at the life of Jesus. Jesus was always humble. He was able to be humble because He knew exactly who He was. Jesus washed the feet of His disciples. That’s the ultimate act of humility. He was only able to do that because He was very secure in his position. He knew who He was, whose He was and what He was here on earth to do. Love is not conceited or proud. We have to demonstrate love, through...
