Red Rocks Church Weekend Messages

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.

Hearing from God often begins with slowing down long enough to listen.In this message, Shawn Johnson walks through what it means to seek God daily through prayer, Scripture, waiting, and obedience. From the Lord’s Prayer to Jesus in the garden, this sermon explores how God speaks through relationship, surrender, wisdom, and His Word.

Even in seasons of disappointment, fear, exhaustion, and uncertainty, God remains faithful to lead His people toward His promises.In this Mother’s Day message, we walk through the story of Israel’s journey from Egypt to the Promised Land and what it means to trust God in the wilderness seasons of life. Through Scripture, personal stories, and honest reflection, this message reminds us that God’s presence, provision, protection, and peace are still available in difficult places.

Grace meets us in our weakness, restores what failure tried to define, and calls us forward with purpose. In this message, Liverpool One’s Pastor Luke Bryant shares how the life of Peter reveals the boldness of God’s grace and the power of community, honesty, and transformation.

Jesus asks in Luke 6:46-49, “Why do you call me Lord, Lord, and not do what I say?” True faith is not just hearing His words, but building your life on them. Pastor Shawn Johnson’s message explores how obedience creates an unshakable foundation marked by peace, joy, strength, and confidence through every storm. Abundant life is found not in chasing approval or success, but in trusting Christ first and walking in His ways.

This message from Ryan Wekenman gets to the root of why so many of us feel stuck, exhausted, and overwhelmed. Our world tells us transformation starts with you—self-help, self-improvement, self-focus. But the more we focus on ourselves, the heavier life becomes. Jesus offers a better way. When you stop making life about you, you finally experience the freedom you’ve been looking for. This isn’t about trying harder. It’s about getting free.

On the first Palm Sunday, the people of Jerusalem didn’t have the right view of the King who was coming, Jesus; they celebrated his works but missed his intentions. How often do we miss it, too? Our peace isn’t found in momentary relief from a situation, but in putting Jesus at the center of our lives.
