Welcome to The Black Rock Podcast — where we chat and chew. Today, we're diving into a timely topic: Halloween. Where did it come from? What's really behind all the costumes and candy? And as followers of Christ, how should we think about trick-or-treating and the deeper battle between good and evil that plays out every day — not just on October 31st. Let's unpack it together.

SHARE: The Reason for Hope - Give An Answer

Black Rock Church Sermons ·

2025/10/19

If the gospel really offers people the best life now and eternal life with God, how could we possibly keep it to ourselves? Yet so often, fear or hesitation holds us back. In this final week, we’ll discover how God equips us with boldness and confidence to share our faith—courageously, respectfully, and in a way that honors Him and impacts others forever.

SHARE: The Reason for Hope - Be Prepared

Black Rock Church Sermons ·

2025/10/12

If someone asked you how to become a Christian, would you know how to explain it with clarity and confidence? This week, we’ll explore how to share the simple yet life-changing message of the gospel—the invitation to believe in Jesus and surrender to Him—so that others can discover the joy of new life and the hope of eternity with God.

SHARE: The Reason for Hope - Gentleness & Respect

Black Rock Church Sermons ·

2025/10/05

It is possible to share our faith with both boldness and kindness. This week we’ll unpack 1 Peter 3:15, where we’re called to explain the hope we have “with gentleness and respect.” If the gospel is truly good news—bringing joy, hope, and love—then the way we share it should reflect the beauty and power of the message itself.

SHARE: The Reason for Hope - Always

Black Rock Church Sermons ·

2025/09/28

Sharing our faith isn’t a church program or one-time event—it’s a way of life. God invites us to live with a constant awareness of where He is at work around us and to be ready to join Him in those moments. As 1 Peter 3:15 reminds us, we are to “always be prepared to give an answer” when asked about the hope we have. Each of us has been uniquely created—with our own gifts, stories, and personalities—so we can share Jesus naturally and authentically in the way He designed us.

SHARE: The Reason for Hope - Revere Christ as Lord

Black Rock Church Sermons ·

2025/09/21

When it comes to sharing our faith, it all starts in our hearts. If we understand how much God loves us and have received God’s forgiveness and joy, that enables us to live with hope. But it all starts with what 1 Peter 3:15 says: “revere Christ as Lord.” This week, we examine what it means and what impact it has on our lives when we “revere Christ.”

SHARE: The Reason for Hope - Why & How We Share?

Black Rock Church Sermons ·

2025/09/14

From the time we are kids, we are taught to share, but when it comes to sharing our faith, it often brings up negative feelings. Some of us think of the pushy salesman or a yelling street corner preacher. Others aren’t sure if or why they should share their faith. But what if God’s vision for sharing our faith is simpler and far more beautiful? What if it’s about loving God and sharing hope?

Discipleship Sunday - Devoted to Christian Community

Black Rock Church Sermons ·

2025/09/07

Acts chapter two gives us a glimpse into the very first church—and it’s clear they “devoted themselves” to life together in Christian community. So here’s a question worth asking: What does your schedule say you’re devoted to? Have you made space for the kind of relationships that encourage your faith, challenge you to grow, and walk with you through life? Real spiritual growth happens when we prioritize community.

God provides many blessings for us. As believers, that reminder should inspire gratitude and thankfulness in our hearts. That gratitude, in turn, should inspire us to share God’s goodness with people who haven’t experienced it yet.

The Parable of the Unforgiving Servant teaches us how great a debt we’ve been forgiven. Because of the great debt that has been forgiven for us, Jesus commands us to forgive others. This forgiveness is not an unrealistic expectation placed on us, but instead, through forgiveness, we’re able to mirror Christ’s life and work through our actions.
