Church On The Rock St Augustine

Fight For It | Pastor Josh Hersey | Misfit Mindset

Most battles in life are not happening around us. They are happening inside our minds.
In this message from the Misfit Mindset series, we explore how the real fight for believers is often the battle for our thoughts. Scripture tells us to take every thought captive and to fix our minds on what is true, honorable, and worthy of praise. But that is much easier said than done. Worry, frustration, distractions, and everyday conflicts can quietly pull our thinking in the wrong direction before we even realize it.
This teaching walks through passages like Philippians 4 and 2 Corinthians 10 to show how God invites us into a different way of thinking. Instead of living trapped in cycles of worry or frustration, we learn how to replace those thoughts with prayer and trust. When that shift happens, something powerful follows. God begins guarding our hearts and minds with a peace that does not even make sense to the world around us.

Finding Peace in the Middle of Life's Storms

Most people think spiritual warfare is about dramatic moments of temptation or obvious attacks. But what if the real battle is happening quietly in your mind during everyday frustrations, disagreements, and storms of life? In this episode they walk through Philippians 4 and uncover how the Apostle Paul reveals the pathway to peace that surpasses understanding.
Through real life stories, scripture, and practical discipleship, this conversation explores how the enemy often works through distraction, disagreement, and difficulty rather than obvious sin. Learn how fixing your mind on God changes how you walk through storms, conflict, and uncertainty. If you want to understand how to experience God's peace in the middle of life's chaos, this conversation will challenge the way you think about spiritual warfare and faith.

Focus on the Path | Larry McCall | Misfit Mindset

What if the biggest threat to your faith is not rebellion but distraction?
Most people do not walk away from God in a single moment. It happens slowly. One decision, one season, one shift in focus at a time. In this powerful message from the Misfit Mindset series, Larry McCall explains why the Christian life is really a battle for your attention and how believers can stay focused on the path Jesus calls us to follow.
Using Scripture from Psalm 143, Romans 12, Mark 12, and Deuteronomy 6, this sermon explores the two paths every person walks and why followers of Jesus often find themselves drifting without realizing it. If you feel spiritually distracted, worn down by life, or unsure where you stand with God, this message will help you refocus your heart and rediscover the life and peace that come from walking closely with Jesus.

Stop Trying to Prove Yourself to God

What if everything you believed about earning God’s approval was backwards? In this episode of Cornerstone Conversations, we unpack the powerful truth that identity comes before activity and that you were chosen, adopted, and approved long before you ever did anything for God. We dive into Romans 8, 1 Peter 2, John 15, and Romans 12 to explore what it really means to abide in Christ and live with a misfit mindset in a culture that says performance defines you.
If you have ever struggled with feeling like you have to prove yourself to God, wondered what abiding actually looks like in a busy life, or questioned how to live as a disciple in the real world, this conversation will ground you in the freeing reality that you are a child first and everything else flows from there.

Focused Thoughts | Pastor Josh Hersey | Misfit Mindset

In this fourth installment of the Misfit Mindset series, we dive into Colossians 3, Ephesians 4, Hebrews 4, and 1 Corinthians 10 to uncover what real repentance means and how to overcome sin, addiction, shame, and destructive patterns by leaning into the Rock instead of running from God. Discover the difference between to shuv and metanoia, why willpower is not enough to defeat temptation, how Satan distorts our view of God, and how to come boldly to the throne of grace even after you fail; if you are wrestling with sin, stuck in cycles, or longing for true spiritual freedom, this message will shift your mindset and draw you closer to the heart of the Father.
