Winter Olympics Mission Trip – Finding Purpose

Last night I believe I had one of the best meals of my entire life. It was one of those experiences where you’re kind of sad it happened because you know nothing will even come remotely close to it ever again. The food was great and the service was phenomenal (hello, we’re in Italy after all). However the real reason it was so special was because as we sat around the tables, story after story was retold of God blessing our little local church in Utah.

Funny stories, sad stories, informative stories were bouncing around the room for nearly four hours. I couldn’t help but stop and marvel at how God has so evidently protected and sustained The Rock Church over the past 25 years. And allowing us to be in Italy once again co-laboring with long-time ministry partners. What a privilege and an honor to now have been a small part of the rich history of what God is doing here in Europe. Furthermore, what God is doing in Utah through our little church.

Philippians Sermon Series

A Study of the Book of Philippians

Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice. ⁵ Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; ⁶ do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. ⁷ And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. — Philippians 4:4-7

…One Year Later

It’s been exactly one year since my son was able to come home from the hospital. Due to many complications, what started out as appendicitis turned into forty-something days in the ICU and on the surgical recovery floor. During that time, he won over every tech, nurse, and doctor with his patience and kindness. His perseverance and long-suffering were truly amazing. I didn’t hear him complain one time.

On a typical day during his time in the hospital, I would spend the night there. My wife and the girls slept at home. In the morning, my wife would come to the hospital, and we’d take care of our son together for a few hours. Then I’d go home and sleep during the day while my wife took over at the hospital. My daughters did school, chores, etc. I’d eat dinner with the girls, and then we’d all go to the hospital, where we’d be together until my wife took the girls home. And the routine would start all over again.

The Promise Fulfilled — Christmas Series 2025

“For all of God’s promises have been fulfilled in Christ with a resounding “Yes!” And through Christ, our “Amen” (which means “Yes”) ascends to God for his glory.” — 2 Corinthians 1:20

Christmas is approaching, and it brings our four-week series called “The Promise Fulfilled.” We’ll discover how the promises of God find their ultimate fulfillment in the birth of Christ: beginning with ancient prophecies of hope, continuing to the angel’s songs of joy, celebrating the Prince of Peace born in Bethlehem, and embracing God’s gift of love revealed in Jesus.

The Wisdom of Precaution

“A prudent person foresees danger and takes precautions. The simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences.” — Proverbs 22:3 (NLT)

This proverb is very clear. Wisdom isn’t about knowing everything—it’s about being aware. The prudent person sees trouble coming and then makes adjustments. They aren’t so wise that they can see into the future. Instead, they stop to think. “What are the outcomes ahead?” The simpleton certainly doesn’t stop to think. They assume everything will work itself out. And then they just keep walking straight into their decision. Not knowing if it will be a problem or not. It’s not about assuming things will work out. Instead, it’s about having the courage to pause, think about what’s ahead, and have the humility to course correct.

From Darkness to Light: Easter’s Promise

Easter at The Rock Church

Our world sits in darkness. We carry the weight of sin, which leaves us lost, isolated, and hopeless. Every day, we see the effects of a lost world needing hope. Hearts are weighed down by despair, and souls are longing for something greater. But there is Good News: Light has broken through the darkness.
