Baptism is more than a moment — it's a declaration of a new life in Christ. Join us as we celebrate stories of transformation and look at how Jesus calls us to believe in Him, leave behind the old life, and grow into the fullness of who He created us to be.

What happens when Christ is at the center of every moment of every day? In Colossians 4, Paul challenges us to live with purpose, speak with grace, and look for opportunities to point others toward Jesus. Discover how God uses ordinary people and everyday conversations to make an extraordinary difference in their community and the world.

A life centered on Jesus transforms how you live with others. Whether it's marriage, parenting, family drama, or frustrating people at work, Colossians 3 gives a surprisingly practical and refreshing vision for relationships marked by love, sacrifice, grace, and purpose instead of conflict, selfishness, and scorekeeping.

Welcome to the Black Rock Podcast, where faith meets real life. Today we're talking about one of our core ministry values: being outward focused. At Black Rock, we believe church is for everyone. That's why we strive to communicate the truth of God's Word in a way that's relatable, understandable, and engaging—especially for people who may be new to faith. As Paul reminds us in 1 Corinthians, everything we do should build people up. We want church to be spiritual, rooted in Scripture and empowered by the Holy Spirit; helpful, making a difference in everyday life; and enjoyable, creating an environment where people genuinely want to be. So grab a snack and join us as we explore what it means to be outward focused. Let's chat and chew!

When you set your mind on Christ you actively put to death sin in your life and put on Godly character of compassion, kindness, and love.

When we are "rooted in Christ" it enables us to live freely for him. We often try to put additional rules, regulations and barriers in our faith, but truly a relationship with Christ is enough!

Your faith was never meant to be private—it was meant to be shared. Discover the mission at the heart of following Jesus and how your life can make an eternal impact when Christ is boldly proclaimed.

We often shrink Jesus into something manageable, but this week we'll see Him for who He truly is: the image of God, Creator of the universe, ruler over all, and the one who holds everything together. This all-powerful, all-sufficient Jesus didn't stay distant. He came to reconcile you, restore you, and bring you near through the cross.

We're kicking off our Colossians series by discovering why God's Word matters and how it shapes a life that truly honors Him. Learn how living a life worthy of the Lord is marked by joy, endurance, spiritual growth, and a deepening relationship with God.

In this episode of the Black Rock Podcast, we dive into the topic of Joyful Discipleship—and how following Jesus was never meant to feel like a heavy obligation, but instead a life marked by joy, purpose, and freedom in Christ. Too often, people experience faith as pressure—something measured by performance, perfection, or simply trying harder. But true discipleship is not about checking religious boxes; it's about walking daily with Jesus, being transformed by His grace, and discovering the deep joy that comes from living in step with Him. We also take time to unpack our Ministry Values—the core principles that shape the heart of ministry at Black Rock. While many churches may share similar biblical beliefs, values determine culture. They influence how we serve, how we lead, how we care for people, and how we help others take their next step in faith. These values represent the "why" behind what we do—why we prioritize people over programs, why relationships matter, and why creating spaces for genuine spiritual growth is so important to us. Let's chat and chew!
