Our Mission

To build our lives upon This Rock—believing in Jesus, becoming like Him, and bringing others to Him.

Our Values

At This Rock, our core values are the God-given, Scripture-based principles that drive everything we say and do—guiding us as we build our lives upon Jesus Christ.

 

Teaching God’s Word

We believe God's word changes everything. In an ever-changing world, we build our lives on the never-changing truth of Scripture. We let it shape us in our daily walk and teach it with grace, relevance, and authenticity to others for the benefit of all. At This Rock, we believe God’s word changes everything.

2 Timothy 3:16-17

Bridging Generations

We are a multigenerational church. In a disconnected world, we build bridges with generations that are not our own. We learn from and pour into one another as we build up and pass down a heritage of faith. At This Rock, we are a multigenerational church.

Psalm 145:4

Building Strong Families

We find strength in family. In a busy world, we empower men and women to build strong families that follow God together. We challenge men to love and lead well.We make learning about Jesus fun for kids and easy on parents so the world sees the hope of Christ through our families. At This Rock, we find strength in family.

Genesis 17:7

Valuing People

We value all people and challenge them to become all God has called them to be. Church should be where people from different cultures, backgrounds, and walks of life come together in Christ and find friendship, fellowship, and faith. At This Rock, we value all people and challenge them to become all God has called them to be.

Romans 2:11

Sharing Jesus

We find ways to share the Gospel in our daily lives. In a lost world, we have found hope for today and forever in Jesus. We share His love to those around us by extending our community to others, lending a helping hand, and pointing people to Jesus. At This Rock, we find ways to share the Gospel in our daily lives.

Mark 16:15

Impacting Beyond Mid Cities

We are all about the mission. In a world in need of hope, we live beyond ourselves to take the hope of the Gospel to spiritually underdeveloped places. Through praying, giving, and going, we play our role in what God is doing around the globe. At This Rock, we are all about the mission.
