More in Sexuality | Every day the world tells us that sex is about self gratification, and selfish, about getting whatever you can. That it is something physical only. That is is strictly temporary. That is not what sex was intended for. In scripture, sexuality only exists within marriage. It is a part of the mystery of two souls [...] | 5/20/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

More in Marriage | Marriage is a permanent, exclusive, and sacrificial covenant between a man and a woman. We were designed for much more than the worlds standard of marriage. Some of us are married, and this message is relevant to you, some of you are not, this is relevant not because, you need to get married, but because [...] | 5/13/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

More in Relationship | God created us for relationships. We have a hunger for them. We have become satisfied with something less then real relationships. When the bible talks about relationships it talks about them in some very specific terms. None of them have to do with knowing people on a surface level. None of them have to do [...] | 5/6/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Battle for More | As we talk about how to have more in terms of the Christian life, we must realize this will not be handed to us. We are in a battle and, while its outcome has already been decided, we must open our eyes to it and be equipped for it. | 4/29/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

More | Our new series, More, kicks off as we consider that there is more to following Jesus than many Christians experience on a regular basis. Over the next 9 weeks, we’ll look at how to step more fully into the life that is truly life. | 4/22/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Living Easter | We have a tendency to feel a sense of disappointment coming out of the mountain top experience of Easter. But we need to realize the time we are in. We need to remember that our hour of salvation is nearer to us than it was before. Jesus is coming again, this time to bring salvation. [...] | 4/15/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

The End | Jesus is going to come. He is going to come and make everything new. We live in a world where everything is falling apart, a world where it is easy to become discouraged. Jesus is coming to make all of those things right. Revelation tells us that the war has been won, victory belongs to [...] | 4/1/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Nations | God does not look at the world through an “us” vs “them” lens. He sees all people as His and asks the Church to embrace His heart for the nations. | 3/25/12 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
9 |
The Church | Commissioned to the nations and empowered by God’s Spirit, the first Church takes the baton of the story of God. Centuries later, we look at how this group of 120 has turned into a movement of 2 billion. | 3/18/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Spirit | When Jesus leaves this earth, He does so promising the presence of God to live in us. And the Holy Spirit does so much more than dwell in us. He fills us with power…He shows us Jesus…He gives us life, and He is with us today, looking for those that are desiring and asking for [...] | 3/12/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

11 |
The Commission | When Jesus returns to the disciples after beating death, they prepare for Him to continue His ministry on earth. But Jesus instead hands them His mission, empowered by His Spirit and under His authority, asking them to go and make disciples across the globe. | 3/4/12 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
12 |
The Savior | Jesus giving His life before ultimately conquering death goes beyond being a salvation story. He didn’t die just so we wouldn’t die. He died so that we would live, and that makes it a creation story of new life. | 2/26/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

13 |
The Servant | As we turn the page from the Old Testament, everything changes with Jesus of Nazareth. Not just His presence, but the Kingdom He came to build by being a servant to the world. | 2/19/12 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
14 |
The Waiting | God charges Israel with unfaithfulness in 4 areas: bringing blemished sacrifices, neglect, adultery, and robbery. God the Father, in His deliberate love, shares His grievances with His people before a prolonged silence. | 2/12/12 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
15 |
The Exile | God always has and always will be a God that brings new life to His creation. Not just for our sake, God breathes new life into us so that we can be living testaments and declare who He is to all those we encounter. | 2/6/12 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
16 |
The Destruction | In the book of Habakkuk, we see God’s prophet looking to God for answers. We learn that the God of the universe welcomes and can handle our questions…and that He desires to teach us about Him through our questions. | 1/29/12 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
17 |
The Kingdom | In three different instances, we see God’s intrinsic involvement in the lives of King David and the Israelites. We discover that, as we believe God to be intimately involved in our whole lives, we become more concerned with building God’s Kingdom than our own. | 1/22/12 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
18 |
The Concession | The Israelites, called to be set apart and ruled by God as their King, instead desire to be commonplace like other nations, with an appointed king. God turns them over to their desires, allowing them to become mired in idolatry and enslavement before sending the King of Kings to reclaim His people. | 1/15/12 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
19 |
The Presence | When we realize that God is right here with us, waiting to meet us, it changes the way we think and feel about spending time with Him. This can influence how we think about sin, our body as God’s temple, and the need to protect and honor God’s presence in our body. It can impact [...] | 1/8/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

A Different Spirit | When faced with the promised land the Israelites were faced with what appeared to be an insurmountable challenge. Where Caleb was looking up, they were looking inward. They neglected to remember that the land was promised to them, to be given to them as a gift. When we look up to God, instead of inward, [...] | 1/1/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

21 |
The Substitute | There appears to be a contradiction between a loving God, and a God that does not let the guilty go unpunished, but that is not the case. At the heart of the sacrificial system is the idea of atonement. It was a system designed by God, to bring us closer to him. It is about [...] | 12/11/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
22 |
The Law | In recognition that His people are still trying to figure out who they are and where they should go, God responds by giving them the gifts of direction and parameters. In doing so, He declares the truth of who He is and how He’s designed them to live. | 12/4/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
23 |
The Exodus | After 400 years enslaved in Egypt, God leads His people out of Pharaoh’s hand. More than a history story, we see that this is also our story: from enslavement to freedom for the glory and renown of our Redeemer. | 11/27/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
24 |
The Call | In Genesis 12 we see a call on Abram’s life that still applies to us today: God leads, we follow. As Abram trusted God and followed Him, he was abundantly blessed. Now it is our turn, to believe, trust, and follow. | 11/20/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
25 |
The Fall | The first man and first woman lose the plot of God’s story and find themselves in a new reality…one marked with guilt, shame, and separation from God. But while there is justice, God’s grace is almost immediately on display…ensuring this is not how the story will end. | 11/14/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
26 |
The Beginning | In an instant, the God that’s always been and that always will be, created everything. And when He made man, He did so in His image, inviting us to live as the cherished possessions of the Almighty God. | 11/6/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
27 |
The Story of God | To live out the Gospel, we have to love and be able to articulate God’s story. We kick off our 5-month journey through the scriptures by considering what the Bible is, why it’s important, and how to study it. | 10/30/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
28 |
Multiply | God’s desire for His Church is that we be equipped to live out His story alongside and for the sake of people who don’t know Him. We must reject consumerism and reject the lie that this is reserved for “church leaders”…and we must embrace God’s plan for us to make disciples. | 10/23/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
29 |
Together | Over the past several weeks, we have been looking at our call to re-orient our lives around these marks of identity, mission, family, & sacrifice. In looking at Ephesians 2, we see that this will most benefit the Kingdom if it’s something we all step into together. | 10/16/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
30 |
With New Identity | Because of who Jesus is and what He has done, we have been given new identity in Him. As Christians, we are to take off any old identities and embrace our new identity in Him, pursuing who He says we are and what that means for how we live. | 10/9/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
31 |
On Mission | In Paul’s letter to Corinth, we see him pointing the Church outward. That’s still our call today, to be compelled by Jesus’ love back into the world we live in. | 10/2/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
32 |
As Family | In looking at what Jesus did on the cross, we find that not only are we reconciled to God, we are reconciled to each other. God’s plan has always involved His Church as a family and we are to embrace this call of togetherness. | 9/25/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
33 |
Living Out the Gospel Together | In Nehemiah 8, the Israelites are at the starting line, much like our Church is. We are in a season where we are asking, “where do we proceed?” In looking at this verse we see how the Israelites turned to the Law, and recommitted themselves to God’s covenant as a foundation to their new beginning. | 9/18/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

34 |
Seek Week Fall 2011 | Each Fall, RH launches initiatives that will mark the next year of ministry together. In 2011, we headed into this starting line armed with both questions and plans. In looking at Ezra 3, we re-orient ourselves to the foundation that we continue to build upon. | 9/12/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

35 |
Now What? | Jesus has risen from the dead and the disciples figure that means the end of God’s story. But Jesus again turns their perspective outward, promising the Holy Spirit and calling them to continue His story as witnesses throughout the earth. | 9/4/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
36 |
Jesus Christ, The Son of God | Three times, Jesus tells His disciples that He will die and rise from the dead. Because of His death and subsequent resurrection, God’s presence is now open to the world…confirming Jesus’ identity as the Son of God. | 8/28/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

37 |
Every Passing Hour | In the garden of Gethsemane, we see Jesus deeply anguished as He prepares to endure the cross. And through His posture and prayer, we learn what it means to suffer well. | 8/21/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Bare Naked Temple | When Jesus arrived in Jerusalem in Mark 11, He should have found His people living in alignment with His agenda. But at the temple, He was instead forced to respond to an environment of divisiveness and a culture where His people’s lives did not match their outward appearance of holiness. | 8/15/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Transformational Teaching
Warning: Only subscribe to this podcast if you want to be challenged! This especially applies if you've spent your life "doing church." ROCKHARBOR believes that the body of Christ is the church, that God's word is powerful and relevant today, and that when the body of Christ really takes time to listen to God speak through His word, transformation happens. I'm on leadership at GraceHB.org, a Lutheran congregation that is also passionately pursuing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I will confess that I am a different person and a different leader at GraceHB.org than I was six months ago when I started listening to the teaching's at ROCKHARBOR.
This podcast Rocks!!!!
It is awesome that we can still hear about God's word, even when we are not there. I'm a college student full time, and there are times I cannot go. this is a GREAT way to still be connected to the most wonderful church in the Nation!!!!
Rock on!
Yea - these are wonderful. I go to church in Santa Barbara but always download these to listen to on the road. This church is amazing and is truly responding and acting out their faith! Checkout their website and the Go Campaign.
