Church On The Rock St Augustine

Think Differently | Pastor Josh Hersey | Misfit Mindset

What if following Jesus was never meant to make you fit in? In this message kicking off the Misfit Mindset series, we explore what it really means to live different on purpose in a world constantly trying to shape us into its mold. Drawing from 1 Peter 2, Romans 12, and Jesus’ declaration at Caesarea Philippi, this teaching unpacks how identity in Christ reshapes the way we think, live, and respond to culture. From money and relationships to purity, purpose, and daily decisions, discover why transformation starts in the mind, why misfits are actually disciples, and how God gives us both the desire and the power to live His will.
If you’ve ever felt called out, set apart, or out of place, this message is for you.

The Call was "Just Serve"

Pastor Josh sits down with Larry McCall, the number two leader at Church on the Rock, to tell the powerful and unexpectedly simple story behind Larry’s journey to COTR and the word from God that changed everything in 2021: “Just serve.” What started as an ordinary act of obedience turned into a season of significant impact, growth, and influence. In this conversation, they unpack why true serving always flows from a generous heart, how that kind of culture is cultivated over time, and what to do when God gives you a word that feels simple but carries real weight. If you’ve ever wondered how obedience, humility, and serving others shape leadership, purpose, and spiritual growth, this episode will challenge and encourage you to take your next step.

Remember Him | Pastor Josh Hersey | Draw Near

As our church concludes 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting, we pause to do something essential before moving forward: remember Jesus. In this message, we look at Acts 2 and 1 Corinthians 11 to rediscover the heart of communion not as routine or ritual, but as a sacred act of devotion that shapes how we live, love, and stay anchored to Christ beyond the fast. This teaching challenges us to resist overindulgence, reject status and division, and return to the simplicity of the gospel. Communion becomes a reminder that the ground is level at the cross, that Jesus alone satisfies, and that remembering Him is the key to staying surrendered, humble, and spiritually nourished long after the fast ends.

What Are You Still Holding Onto?

In this episode we dive into the powerful call of Jesus to surrender all and what that actually looks like in everyday life. Centered on Luke 7 and the story of the woman with the alabaster jar, this conversation unpacks what total surrender truly means, not as religious performance, but as a posture of the heart. We explore how surrender goes beyond fasting seasons, beyond church attendance, and beyond spiritual habits, into a daily life of open hands before God. From countercultural faith and identity, to pride, self-righteousness, and grace, this episode challenges listeners to examine what they may still be holding onto and invites them into a deeper, freer, more surrendered walk with Jesus. Whether you are in a season of fasting, prayer, or simply searching for renewal, this conversation will help you rethink surrender as a lifestyle, not a moment.

Surrender All | Pastor Josh Hersey | Draw Near

In this sermon from the Draw Near series, Pastor Josh Hersey teaches from Luke 7:36–50, unpacking the story of the sinful woman with the alabaster jar and the Pharisee who invited Jesus into his home but failed to honor Him. This message explores the difference between surface-level faith and full surrender, revealing how religious familiarity can keep Jesus in the courtyard of our lives while true repentance leads us to worship at His feet. Through rich biblical context, this teaching answers questions about what surrender to Jesus really looks like, the meaning of true repentance, and why the gospel is not about self-righteousness but humility, grace, and love. If you’ve ever wondered what it means to surrender all to Jesus, this message will challenge and encourage you to lay everything down before Him.

What It Really Means to Press In

What does it really mean to press in to God when life has worn you down, faith feels risky, or you’ve been waiting for healing for a long time? In this episode of Cornerstone Conversations, we walk through Luke 8 and the powerful story of the woman with the issue of blood, exploring deliberate faith, desperate hope, and the courage to reach for Jesus when everything says stay hidden. From cultural context and the Mosaic law to the beauty of Jesus calling her “daughter,” this conversation reveals how Jesus responds to intentional pursuit, how the clean makes the unclean clean, and why your story still matters. Along the way, we unpack practical ways to press in during prayer and fasting, the power of testimony, and the freedom found when we come to Jesus just as we are.
