Red Rocks Church Weekend Messages Red Rocks Church

Pastor Jill Johnson preaches on the Shunammite woman from 2 Kings. Even in the midst of deep sorrow, her life is an example of devotion to God, and steadfast faith. She shows us that when we do life with Jesus, we can say “all is well” even when our circumstances are difficult.

We celebrate Baptism this weekend as we watch hundreds of people go public with their faith by getting baptized. Water baptism is a visual and symbolic demonstration that a person’s former way of life has been put to death, and he or she is raised into a new creation in Christ.

Pastor Doug Wekenman addresses the topic of mental health and how we can view it from a Biblical context. When we trust in Jesus we can declare a ‘sound mind’ even when we don’t feel it because Jesus died to set us free! When the storms of life come we can cling to the promise of 2 Timothy 1:7 “for God has not given is a spirit of fear but of power, love and a sound mind.”

Pastor Shawn Johnson addresses the topic of Baptism and why it is important in our Christian faith. Baptism is not required for salvation, it is simply an outward expression of an inward change. There are three questions we can consider when it comes to the topic of baptism; "should I be getting baptized?", "who should I invite to a baptism service?", and "if I am baptized already, is there an area in my life God is asking me to be obedient?".

Pastor Shawn Johnson closes out our “I Am” series with a message on Jesus’ statement, “I Am the Vine.” He reminds us that there are practical ways to stay connected to God and therefore find purpose in our lives. When we pray, find God-centered community, and get into The Word we find ourselves closer to our Creator and we see the fruit of walking with Him in our lives.

Pastor James preaches on the sixth “I Am” statement in the Gospel of John where Jesus says, “I am the way, the truth, the life.” Jesus takes Thomas’s questions about ‘when?’, ‘where?’, and ‘how?’ and replies with a ‘who.’ All we need to do is look to Jesus. He can handle our doubts and our questions and He will lead us through those questions into deeper relationship and eternal life through Him.
