Why We Believe in Preaching

Last Sunday morning we focused on Mark #1 of healthy churches— Expositional Preaching. Here are several reminders of why we believe in preaching at Rocky:


“So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.”  Romans 10:17


“Of His [the Father’s] will He brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of His creatures.”  James 1:18


“Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth.”  John 17:17

Thanks for praying for the preaching during the 9 Marks series, and for participating in LIFE groups, too!

  2. I am excited as we study together the 9 Marks of a Healthy Church but more excited to learn how I can be a healthier church member myself. Many thanks to you and the elders for sensing God leading us to this study!
