  What Will Matter Then? | Looking at Today From Eternity

  Aug 20, 202617 min

  What Will Matter Then? | Looking at Today From Eternity What if the thing stressing you out today doesn’t matter nearly as much as you think it does? And what if something you keep putting off matters far more than you realize? In this solo episode of The Rock Sermon Podcast , Pastor Rob takes a simple question from the conclusion of our The King Is Coming Bible study and runs with it: What will matter when we stand before Jesus? This isn’t a Bible study recap. It’s a conversation about how eternity should change the way we live right now. We talk about: Why the problems consuming us today may look very different from eternity The difference between enjoying temporary things and living for temporary things Why pleasing Jesus is a better goal than pleasing people What it means to build a life that lasts Why success and faithfulness aren’t always the same thing The eternal significance of small acts of obedience that nobody else sees Why thinking about eternity should make us more present, not less Key Scriptures: 2 Corinthians 5:9–10 1 Corinthians 3:10–15 Psalm 90:12 Revelation 21:1–5 Revelation 22:12 Pastor’s Inbox: “Pastor Rob, doesn’t thinking about eternity all the time make you miss the life God has given you right now?” We close by talking about why an eternal perspective doesn’t mean enjoying life less. It means learning to enjoy God’s gifts without making temporary things the purpose of our lives. And one question to carry with you: If you could look backward at your life from the day you stand before Jesus, what would you want to change today? ️ The Rock Sermon Podcast Christ The Rock Church | Fall River, MA Love God. Love people. Change the world around us.

  Stay In Your Lane Bro! Stop Trying to Do God’s Part

  Aug 17, 202622 min

  Why You’re So Tired: Stop Trying to Do God’s Part What if the reason you’re exhausted isn’t because you’re doing too little, but because you’re carrying things God never asked you to carry? In this solo episode of the Rock Sermon Podcast , Pastor Rob goes deeper into one thought from Sunday’s message: “Some of us are exhausted because we’re trying to do our part and God’s part.” We’ll talk about the difference between responsibility and control, how to know what actually belongs in your hands, and why faithfulness doesn’t mean forcing an outcome. Paul said: “I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God has been making it grow.” 1 Corinthians 3:6 Your job is to obey, plant, water, build, and stay faithful. God’s job is to bring the increase. In this episode: How responsibility can quietly turn into control Why some of us are carrying too many “plates” The difference between doing your part and trying to guarantee the outcome How this applies to marriage, parenting, ministry, prayer, and leadership Why not every good opportunity is your assignment A practical prayer for releasing what belongs to God If you’re tired from trying to fix everybody, control everything, or make things happen in your own strength, this episode is for you. Be faithful with what God gave you. Release what He didn’t. ️ Rock Sermon Podcast Christ The Rock Church Fall River, Massachusetts #RockSermonPodcast #Faithfulness #TrustGod #ChristianPodcast #PastorRob #LetGoAndTrustGod #ChristianEncouragement #DoYourPart #GodsPart

  When God Hasn’t Answered Yet | Trusting God in Seasons of Waiting

  Aug 13, 202622 min

  Show Notes What do you do when God hasn’t said no, but He hasn’t answered yet either? In this episode of the Rock Sermon Podcast , Pastor Rob talks honestly about the difficult space between prayer and breakthrough. Waiting can test our faith, expose our fears, and tempt us to believe that nothing is happening. But quiet doesn’t mean God is absent. Drawing from this week’s The King Is Coming Bible study and the call to have an “established heart,” Pastor Rob shares fresh encouragement for anyone who feels tired, disappointed, or stuck in a season that’s lasting longer than expected. We’ll talk about: Why waiting isn’t necessarily wasted time How ordinary faithfulness can build deep spiritual roots Why we don’t always need a “new word” from God What to do when nothing seems to be changing Why being tired doesn’t mean you’ve lost your faith How to tell the difference between waiting on God and being afraid to make a decision Pastor Rob also opens the Pastor’s Inbox to answer two practical questions: How do I know if I’m waiting on God or just afraid to make a decision? If you’re in a waiting season today, this episode is for you. You haven’t been forgotten. Quiet doesn’t mean absent. Delay doesn’t mean God has stopped caring. Keep doing the next faithful thing.

  Seeing the People Jesus Sees | Compassion, Missions & the Least of These

  Aug 10, 202613 min

  What if the people we overlook are the very people Jesus is asking us to see? In this episode of The Rock Sermon Podcast, Pastor Rob takes a second look at a powerful message shared at Christ The Rock Church by missionaries Jeremy and Jamie Fulton. After serving in Hungary and throughout Southeast Europe, the Fultons shared stories of ministry among the Roma people and challenged the church from Matthew 25 to recognize Christ in "the least of these." But this conversation isn't only about missions overseas. Who are we overlooking in our own neighborhoods, workplaces, churches, and communities? Pastor Rob reflects on the way Jesus consistently noticed people others ignored and asks a simple but challenging question: Do we really see people the way Jesus sees them? We'll talk about compassion that moves beyond feelings, faith that becomes action, and the reality that missions doesn't always require a passport. Sometimes it begins with noticing the person God has already placed in front of us. Scriptures referenced: Matthew 25:31–46 Luke 4:18–19 James 2:14–17 1 John 3:16–18 2 Corinthians 5:20 Connect with Jeremy & Jamie Fulton and follow their missionary journey: https://www.facebook.com/jeremyandjamieworld We're grateful for the Fulton family, their heart for missions, and their willingness to go wherever God leads them. If this episode encourages you, share it with someone and ask God this week: "Lord, who have I stopped seeing?" The Rock Sermon Podcast is a ministry of Christ The Rock Church in Fall River, Massachusetts, encouraging believers wherever they're listening to love God, love people, and change the world around them. This pastor loves you.

  Stop Waiting for More: What Has God Already Placed in Your Hands?

  Aug 6, 202626 min

  In this episode of The Rock Sermon Podcast, Pastor Rob challenges us to stop overlooking what God has already placed in our hands. Your purpose may not begin with a platform or a dramatic moment. It may begin with a relationship, a gift, a testimony, or one simple act of obedience. We’ll talk about overcoming fear, comparison, distraction, and disappointment, what it means to live faithfully while waiting for Jesus to return, and how to recognize your assignment in this season. Pastor’s Inbox also answers practical questions about end-times anxiety, date-setting, current events, and what it truly means to live ready for the return of Christ. No matter where you’re listening from, we pray this episode encourages you to name what God has given you, surrender it to Him, and take your next faithful step. Key Scriptures: Ephesians 2:8–10, 1 Peter 4:10, Matthew 25:14–30, Exodus 4:2, and Luke 12:35–37.
