Red Rocks Church Weekend Messages

Every generation has a responsibility to pass on the hope and truth of Jesus. In this message, Ethan Johnson challenges us to move beyond comfort, trust God's voice, surrender every part of our lives, and boldly share the story of what Jesus has done.

Looking at Judges 2 and Jesus' encounter with the Samaritan woman in John 4, we see that God works through ordinary people who are willing to go where He leads and tell others about Him. Our story may be the very thing God uses to change someone else's life.

The next generation doesn't happen by accident. It is shaped by intentional people who choose to protect, sharpen, and point others toward Jesus.

In this message, Lauren Bohn walks through Psalm 127:3-5, showing how God calls His people to see the next generation as arrows in the hands of a warrior. Through biblical examples and personal testimony, she challenges us to create spaces where young people are safe, strengthened, and prepared to fulfill God's purpose for their lives.

Whether you're a parent, mentor, teacher, coach, volunteer, or simply someone willing to invest in another person, this message is an invitation to become part of someone's story and help point the next generation toward Christ.

We were never called to simply consume church. We were commissioned to carry the heart of Jesus into the world around us.

In this message, we explore Jesus' Great Commission alongside His heart for the one lost sheep. As followers of Christ, we can easily build lives around comfort and convenience while missing the people God has called us to love. Through Scripture and practical application, this message challenges us to remember where Jesus found us, embrace His compassion, and choose a lifestyle that intentionally reaches those far from God.

Jordan McCaslin reminds us that Jesus wants us to live a full, abundant life, not just an exhausted one.

In week 3 of Summer Lovin', Ryan Wekenman teaches through the story of Matthew the tax collector, a man who knew he was tough to love and whom Jesus welcomed anyway. It is an honest look at loving difficult people, the reality of church hurt, and what it means to be imperfect people pursuing a perfect God. There is a seat at the table for the ones who feel like they have lost theirs, including you.

No matter your experience with your earthly father, you have a Heavenly Father who loves you, is with you, and can do more than you could ever imagine. This Father’s Day, Shawn Johnson and Dr. Harv Powers discuss parenting, healing from father wounds, and practical wisdom for becoming the father God has called you to be.

What happens when the feelings fade? In this message, Doug Wekenman unpacks the neuroscience of love and the biblical truth that lasting relationships are built on more than emotion. Discover how renewing your mind, embracing sacrifice, and choosing love daily can transform your relationships and draw you closer to God.

“Be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” — Romans 12:2

Whether you’re single, dating, married, healing from heartbreak, or simply looking for deeper community, this message will challenge you to stop asking, “How do I find better friends?” and start asking, “How can I become one?”

Because the friendships you build today may shape the person you become tomorrow. Friendship is one of God’s greatest gifts and one of His greatest tools for helping us follow Jesus well.

Healthy marriages are built on mutual submission, not self-preservation.

In Week 1 of our Summer Lovin’ series, Shawn Johnson teaches from Ephesians 5:21 and explores what it means to submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. Looking at the example of Jesus, we see that real love serves, surrenders, and sacrifices. When we pursue Christ first, the fruit of the Spirit begin shaping the way we love our spouse.

Scripture reminds us that love is patient, kind, and not self-seeking. This message challenges us to pursue humility, confess where we’ve fallen short, and take practical steps toward healing and deeper connection in our marriages.

What we remember shapes how we live. In this message, Conrad Bess walks through 2 Peter 1 and the life of David to show how remembrance strengthens faith, builds perseverance, and keeps us anchored in God’s faithfulness.

This sermon explores how God uses remembrance to form character, restore hope, and remind us of His promises even in seasons of suffering and waiting.
