Our Vision
An authentic community changing lives and bringing hope through God’s truth
The Very First Church
Acts 2:42-47
“They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved."
A group of people, in community, striving to honor and worship God, extending their love to others - this was the first church! Since that time, 2000 years ago, some argue that the church has stopped being relevant. Churches and the organized religion they represent have turned off people interested in spiritual matters. God wants us to seek and search spiritually because He knows where that will lead, to Him. He created us to be in relationship with Him.
It is our goal at Rock Harbor Church to be a place where people experience a loving God in an authentic community. Where anyone can come and feel accepted, wanted, loved, and embraced. A community extending grace, caring for one another, leaning on each other, and growing together. A church that readily welcomes people and leads them into a relationship with Jesus Christ. A place of hope!
Our Values
Truth – built on the foundation of the Word of God. Our teaching is bible-based and application oriented. We search for answers together in the bible.
Authenticity – a place where you can succeed or struggle and see others do the same. You are not expected to leave your baggage in the car but bring it with you to share with other believers and leave at the foot of the cross.
Community – connecting people with one another in caring relationships. Building relationships is not optional but expected. We will greatly benefit by bringing out each other’s strengths and helping to cover one another’s weaknesses.
Hope – our only hope is found in Jesus Christ. It is not “wishful thinking” but a promise from God to us. Not only do we look to Christ for our hope but openly share it within our sphere of influence and proactively build relationships so that we may share our hope with others.
