Church On The Rock St Augustine

Answering Tough Questions | part 2

What do hot dog-scented hair, fanny packs, and the book of Revelation have in common? This episode. In Part 2 of our listener Q&A, we dive deep and laugh hard. From navigating spiritually mismatched marriages to breaking cycles of sin, staying humble while carrying the power of the Holy Spirit, and what we’d say to every 20-something trying to find their way, no question is off-limits. Vulnerable, practical, and just the right amount of ridiculous, this one will hit your heart, stir your thoughts, and maybe even make you sing karaoke.

Living the Gospel | Pastor Josh Hersey | Good News

What if God’s big plan to reach the world… is you? That’s what this message is all about. Not your pastor. Not a platform. You. Your life, your words, your response to pressure, fatigue, criticism, and everyday moments. In this message, Pastor Josh pulls back the curtain on what it really means to live the gospel — not just preach it, but embody it. We’re not just saved from something — we’re saved for something. You were made to be an ambassador of heaven, and yes, God picked you on purpose.
But let’s be honest — there’s a lot that fights against that calling. The fear of people’s opinions. The pull of pride and selfishness. The weight of burnout. This message will stir something in you, challenge you, and remind you that the power to live this out doesn’t come from trying harder. It comes from staying close to Jesus. Because apart from Him, we can do nothing. But with Him? We can light up the world.

Answering Tough Questions

We’re answering your questions and not holding back.Pastor Josh and Trevor are back, tackling everything from awkward mic moments (yes, the cringiest things we’ve ever said on stage) to real-life spiritual questions. What do you do when life feels stuck? How do you navigate a storm that won’t let up? And is Jesus actually contradicting Himself in Matthew 5 and 6 — or is there a deeper truth we’re missing?
This one’s honest, practical, and full of those “I needed that” moments.

Fruit | Larry McCall | Good News

What if the fruit in your life is not the goal, but the byproduct? In this week's message, Larry McCall shares an honest and heartfelt word about what it really looks like to live out the Gospel. Not with surface-level effort or performative faith, but with fruit that grows from the inside out — fruit like character, compassion, and faithfulness. Through John 15 and his own hard-won testimony, Larry brings the reminder that fruit is not something we can manufacture. It’s something only Jesus can grow in us when we stay connected to Him.
You’ll also hear a transparent story from Larry’s own life — how he kept fasting, kept sacrificing, but missed the point entirely until God lovingly corrected him. If you’ve ever gotten burned out trying to do things for God while feeling disconnected from Him, this message will hit home. It’s not about watering the fruit. It’s about watering the root. And when you do, real life starts to grow.

Hold Nothing Back: Reflections, Vision, and the Power of Surrender

In this heartfelt midyear conversation, Josh and Trevor open up about what God’s been doing in their lives, their churches, and their hearts. From the power of a single vulnerable moment at a Vision Summit to the quiet discipline of planning with intention, this episode explores what it means to hold nothing back—in faith, in leadership, and in surrender.
They reflect on lessons from 21 Days of Prayer, navigating change in church culture, and the importance of letting go of sacred preferences in order to follow God’s leading. You’ll hear laughter, honest processing, and a few behind-the-scenes stories—from Buffalo Bills memorabilia to midnight writing sessions in Alaska.
Whether you're halfway through a tough year or dreaming about what’s still ahead, this episode will stir your spirit to reflect, re-engage, and lean fully into what God’s doing right now.

Go Back | Pastor Josh Hersey | Good News

What do you do when life does not go as planned? When disappointment, failure, or even spiritual burnout make you want to give up and go back to what you knew before? In this message, Pastor Josh takes us deep into Galatians 4 to ask a simple but soul-stirring question: Why do we go back when we’ve already been set free? Whether it is old habits, a religious mindset, or just a broken view of God’s love, this message reminds us that the Gospel is not about earning approval — it is about responding to a love that was never based on performance in the first place.
This is more than a sermon. It is an invitation to return to the Father, to grace, to freedom. With raw honesty and powerful storytelling, Pastor Josh shares how we often drift away, not out of rebellion but from forgetting who we are in Christ. But the good news is this: we can always come back. And when we do, we do not find a God with arms crossed — we find a Father running toward us with arms open. Watch this now, and let the Gospel rewrite the story you have been living.
