How can we embrace God's presence like Mary did?
Mary's encounter with the angel Gabriel teaches us about embracing God's presence and trusting His plan. Despite the challenges and uncertainties, Mary responded with faith and obedience, saying, 'I am the Lord's servant.' This story encourages us to trust God fully, even when it comes with a high cost, and to cultivate an informed faith that deepens our relationship with Him.

Are you trusting God's word or relying on your own understanding?
In the new series 'Christmas Presence,' we look at the lives of key figures from the original Christmas story, starting with Zechariah. Zechariah, a priest, and his wife Elizabeth longed for a child but were unable to conceive. An angel visited Zechariah, announcing that Elizabeth would bear a son named John, who would prepare the way for Jesus. Despite this miraculous message, Zechariah doubted due to their old age and was rendered mute until John's birth.
This story highlights the importance of trusting God's word and the consequences of doubt. Zechariah's journey teaches us that obedience to God's word amplifies our influence, while doubt can silence it. As we prepare for Christmas, let us commit to trusting God's word and walking in obedience, experiencing His presence and influence in our lives.
📖 Key Scripture: Matthew 1:23 – “The virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a son, and they will call him Emmanuel, which means ‘God is with us.’”
In this message:
✨ Zechariah's story and the miraculous birth of John the Baptist
✨ The challenges of trusting God's Word amidst doubt
✨ Rebuilding our voice and influence through obedience to Him
✨ A powerful reminder that God's plans are always good, even when they challenge us

Welcome to Church on the Rock! Today is Commitment Sunday, a special day in the life of our church as we unite to make faith-based commitments, not just financially, but with our entire lives. This message looks at the Apostle Paul’s teaching to Timothy on the balance of faith, money, and obedience, diving into the richness of godliness with contentment, and how true wealth is found in living for eternal impact.
Pastor Josh reminds us that while money is a tool in our discipleship journey, it’s about so much more. We’re called to live generously and steward all God has blessed us with, pursuing a life of faith, obedience, and contentment. Reflecting on personal stories of financial highs and lows, Pastor Josh challenges us to view our resources as tools to further God’s kingdom and serve others.
This sermon is a reminder that our actions today reach beyond the present, touching lives and making an eternal difference. We pray this message inspires you to commit wholeheartedly to the calling God has for you, with faith in His provision and a spirit of love, power, and sound mind.
Scripture Focus: 1 Timothy 6, 2 Timothy 1:7

Are you ready to prepare the way for God's move in your life? Reflect on your influence, lifestyle, generosity, and legacy. Let's dig ditches and trust God to fill them!
In this message, we look at four key areas where we can prepare the way for the Lord’s move in our lives: influence, lifestyle, generosity, and legacy. Through the story of John the Baptist, we see a beautiful representation of what it means to be a humble messenger, preparing the way for Jesus.
John’s life reminds us that our role is not to be the source of hope but to point others to Christ. Reflecting on influence, lifestyle, generosity, and legacy helps us honor God’s call to share His light in a world that needs it. We’re reminded that every step in faith may require digging spiritual “ditches” in obedience, even when the outcome seems uncertain. Yet, God promises to fill these ditches with His provision and blessings as we trust in Him.
Key Verses: Psalm 143:10: “Teach me to do Your will…”
John 1 – John the Baptist’s testimony and calling
Matthew 5:14-16 – Being the light of the world
Galatians 5:13 – Living in the freedom of God’s call
