Europe Mission Trip 2016 Info Meeting

The Rock Church is in the beginning stages of planning another short-term mission trip in the spring of 2016 (to partner with and serve our sister churches in Europe). Mission trips change the lives of all those involved and we’d love you to be a part of this one. We will have an information meeting Thursday, August 6, 7:00 p.m. at the Dean Court Football Stadium to help share our plans and hopefully answer many of your questions. Won’t you prayerfully consider participating in what God is doing through our Great Commission Europe ministries by supporting this trip either financially and/or by actually joining us on this exciting opportunity? Questions? Contact Steve McInroy.

For more information on our previous mission trips to Europe, please visit www.experiencetherock.com/europe.

Heavenly Upgrade

Colossians 3:1-2 “…set your hearts on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.” (NIV)

Thinking about and teaching on the reality of Heaven last month, was an amazing blessing to me. It reminded me of a flight I had out of Dulles Airport in Washington, D.C. a few years ago. The flight was full and the gate agent asked if anyone was willing to take a “bump” because they were overbooked. My friend and I had nothing better to do, so we volunteered. We got hotel and meal vouchers, were booked for the next day’s flight and were on our way.

Courage

Acts 27:25 “Therefore, keep up your courage, men, for I believe God that it will turn out exactly as I have been told.”

This verse has brought me tremendous comfort.

Shield

“The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my savior; my God is my rock, in whom I find protection. He is my shield, the power that saves me, and my place of safety.” Psalm 18:2

Just a few days ago, these verses came alive to me in a whole new way. As I write this, I am enjoying some time away with my family near Seattle, Washington. The house where my wife grew up has become somewhat of a second home to us; a place where we can watch movies, go boating on the lake and go on extended runs in the surrounding wilderness.

Faithful and Faithless

The Book of Acts (Chapter 12), shows us how faithful and faithless people respond to the storms and trials of life. If you remember in Acts, the early church in Jerusalem was growing like a weed. About that same time, King Herod decided to persecute the church. First, he murdered James and then he arrested Peter. He most likely planned to kill Peter, too. I love Acts 12:5, “So Peter was kept in prison, but earnest prayer for him was made to God by the church.”
