  1. A Simple Invitation

    A Simple Invitation – a word by Pastor Tony D'Amico from The Rock Church in Draper, UT. "My life was changed 18 years ago because someone gave my wife an invitation to The Rock Church. We should be on a mission to our city..."

    A simple invitation could change the direction of someone’s life and eternal destination.

    As part of our Mission To The City last week, a team of us passed out flyers around the Midvale City Park; we invited the neighborhood to a park party. We prayed together and broke down into smaller teams to distribute the flyers.

    The group I was with had two littles who were thrilled about placing the invite on the doors. It was a great display of faith. They ran to the door, taped on the invite and ran back for the next one.

    250 Years of Marriage – a word by Pastor Josh Whitney from The Rock Church in Draper, UT. "there were five couples in the room who had been married over 50 years! Think about that. Five couples who had faithfully followed Jesus"

    “Keep your eyes on those who walk according to the example you have in us”— Philippians 3:17b

    A few weeks ago, we had the opportunity to celebrate Krista’s (my wife) parent’s 50th wedding anniversary. There were siblings, parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, nephews, nieces, friends, visitors, well-wishers and distant relations. Naturally, we had a blast! As we celebrated their anniversary, we talked about fond memories, laughed and honored what the Lord had done in their marriage.

  4. Waiting

    Waiting – a word by Pastor Steve McInroy from The Rock Church in Draper UT. "Waiting for the Lord must be awfully important. I say this because it seems like almost everything in life is enveloped in waiting for Him."

    “Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!” — Psalm 27:14

    Waiting for the Lord must be awfully important. I say this because it seems like almost everything in life is enveloped in waiting for Him. Everyone waits. We wait not only for birth and death, but even on a daily basis, we wait. Think about it. Today you waited; tomorrow you will wait again. In other words, all of life’s ups and downs, all encouragements (and discouragements) happen, as we wait for the Lord.

  6. God’s Great Mercy

    God’s Great Mercy – a word by Pastor Josh Whitney from The Rock Church in Draper, UT. "Above all, that has always been God’s instrument to save us — His great mercy! Truly, it is not about our righteousness."

    “O my God, incline your ear and hear. Open your eyes and see our desolations, and the city that is called by your name. For we do not present our pleas before you because of our righteousness, but because of your great mercy.” — Daniel 9:18

    In Daniel’s wonderful prayer in Chapter 9, he prays based on God’s character and God’s interests. Daniel petitions God, not because of the Israelite’s righteousness, but because of God’s great mercy.
