Church On The Rock St Augustine

Why We Choose Purpose Over Preference

It's safe to say most of us love comfort. We like things set just right, from the AC to the music to how church feels. But what happens when God asks you to step out of what’s comfortable? In this episode, the fellas talk about the difference between purpose and preference and how following Jesus often means saying yes when every part of you wants to say no.
From baked potatoes and pumpkin bread to prayer meetings, Serve Days, and Peter’s boat, this conversation will make you laugh, think, and maybe even squirm a little. Choosing purpose will always stretch you, but it is in those moments of humble obedience that God moves the most.

Wise Work | Pastor Josh Hersey | Wise Up

When God created work, it wasn’t a punishment, it was part of His original design. Before sin entered the world, Adam was given purpose, creativity, and calling. In this message, Pastor Josh reminds us that we don’t work for rest, we work from it. Whether you’re in an office, on a job site, at home raising kids, or serving in church, your work is worship. God invites us to see our everyday labor as holy ground, a place to reflect His image and impact the world around us.
Through teaching, humor, and real-life stories, this sermon calls us to reject laziness, embrace purpose, and recognize that God has uniquely placed each of us where we are for a reason. From the garden of Eden to your 9-to-5, the message is clear: your work matters to God. Watch, take notes, and let this message reshape how you see Monday morning, not as a grind, but as an opportunity to glorify Him in all you do.

The Move of God and Subtle Spiritual Warfare

God is always moving like a river with a strong current, and the real question is whether we’re standing on the shore, cautiously wading in, or fully surrendered to the flow. In this episode of Cornerstone Conversations, we unpack what it looks like to align with God’s movement, overcome the subtle hooks of spiritual warfare, and celebrate each step that brings us closer to His will.

Wise Wallets | Pastor Josh Hersey | Wise Up

Life comes at us with pressures of finances, unexpected challenges, and the temptation to look for security in what we have instead of who holds us. In this message from Wise Up: Wise Wallets, Pastor Josh reminds us from Proverbs 3 and Matthew 6 that the heart of the matter isn’t about money, buildings, or stuff. It’s about where our trust lies. God isn’t against us having things, but He is against things having us. True wisdom means seeking first His kingdom, putting Him in the first place of our hearts, and finding satisfaction and security in Jesus alone.

What Would Jesus Do | Cynthia Evans | Wise Up

Life brings loss, trials, and plenty of reasons to lose heart, but God calls us to respond differently. In this message from Church on the Rock, Cynthia reminds us that even in the face of suffering, tragedy, and a culture that celebrates anger, we are called to anchor ourselves in the wisdom of God’s Word. Drawing from Proverbs and the timeless call to “What Would Jesus Do,” she shows how discipline, self-control, and joy in the Lord can keep us steady no matter what storms we face.
This sermon is both a challenge and an encouragement: to wise up, to resist the pull of pride and culture, and to let the Holy Spirit lead us each day. Whether in our homes, marriages, workplaces, or communities, God invites us to be the light in a world that desperately needs Him. Don’t miss this powerful message that calls us back to wisdom, discipline, and the peace only Jesus can bring.
