Rocky Creek Baptist Church

David was the least likely to become king but God set him apart for this task. While man judges the external value, God judges the internal worth.

In every home, there are exposed places for the enemy to enter. We must identify where they are, build up the walls, and fight against his tactics.

While the church provides important spiritual environments, the most critical spiritual environment is the one in which you live. Parents are called to evangelize and disciple their children.

While sin seeks to corrupt our families, God has given us a helper through the gift of marriage. In marriage, you are meant to be a suitable helper for your spouse.

Families can build their homes upon numerous worthless pursuits. As believers, we must build our families based upon the biblical blueprint provided.

The tendency can be to give as little possible.  Instead of showing minimal generosity, we should see how we can give until every need is met.

In our striving for church unity, we must avoid majoring in the minors. God’s Word teaches us how to maintain unity and deal with those who stir up division.

We will never do enough good works to earn God's favor. Our only hope for salvation is if Christ shows us mercy.

As we remember the sacrifice of Jesus, never forget that God is able to pass over our sins because Jesus was the perfect substitute.

People tend to drift to either passively waiting on Christ’s return or actively working while ignoring his return. We are to show zeal in our work while we wait.

While we are on the clock vocationally, we are also on the clock missionally.  Even if your job isn’t in the ministry, you are in the ministry.

Churches are prone to segregate groups by ages. The biblical example is quite different by modeling multigenerational relationships.

All Talk (1:10-16) - Many can profess doctrinal clarity but few can practice ethical purity.  As believers, we cannot be all talk in our commitment.

Churches can easily drift from the biblical mandate.  God’s Word provides specific directions to bring order within a church family

Practical Heretic [Jonah 4] - It is worthless to agree with a theology that we cannot embrace. We must fight against the tendency to withhold from others the same grace that benefited us.

The God of Second Chances [Jonah 3] - Despite our sin, God provides second chances. Not only does he show grace to us, but he can show grace through us.

A Fish Named “Grace” [Jonah 2] - No amount of rebellion is greater than God’s love. His relentless pursuit of us often finds us in the lowest possible places.

Anywhere but Nineveh [Jonah 1] - It is not beyond God to call us to difficult and unexpected tasks. If we attempt to flee, God proves that he can always outrun us and get us right where he wants us to be.
