Ps Louisa de Bruyn continues The Beatitudes — The Eight Doors of the Kingdom, exploring Matthew 5:7 and Jesus’ call to be merciful. In a world where we often keep score, hold onto hurt and believe people must earn forgiveness, Jesus invites us to live differently — showing mercy as we have received mercy from our Heavenly Father. This is the upside-down Kingdom, where grace replaces keeping score and we reflect the heart of Jesus in how we treat others.

As The Rock celebrates 20 years, we give thanks for our Pastors, Leaders, Volunteers and everyone who has helped shape the journey — but above all, we thank our Heavenly Father who has guided, protected and blessed us along the way. Jossy Chacko shares a challenging message from Luke 15 and Matthew 16:26, reminding us that the lost are deeply valuable to God and calling us to see them as He does, because our perception shapes what we value, what we value shapes our priorities, and our priorities shape our actions.

Jaron de Bruyn continues "The Beatitudes — The Eight Doors of the Kingdom", exploring Matthew 5:6 and Jesus’ call to hunger and thirst for righteousness. Drawing on Matthew 4:17 and Revelation 21:3–7, this message invites us to ask "what are we truly hungry for?" Are we building our own kingdom, or longing for Jesus’ Kingdom and His righteousness? We are invited to turn our hearts toward Him, pursue His ways and live now as people who long to see His Kingdom come.
