Welcome to Rock Harbor Church's Sermon Audio channel. In this powerful message, Pastor Brandon explores what it truly means to *not put a stumbling block* in front of others. Drawing from Leviticus 19:14, Romans 14, 1 Corinthians 8, and Revelation 2, this teaching dives deep into the Hebraic meaning of stumbling blocks, gray areas, and how Christia…

Looking at the significance of world events and changes to our culture, the apostle Paul's statement in Romans 13 that "the day is near" reminds us that Christ can return at any moment. So as believers, we are called to holiness--casting off anything that at all has the appearance of evil, behaving properly and soberly, and making no provision for …

We live in a world of countless decisions—some small, some life-altering. 🤔📍 Many Christians today wrestle with questions like: "How do I know God's will for my life?"

Within Christianity, it is possible that we have communicated far too much latitude to be slow and undisciplined about advancing to spiritual maturity. The enemy leverages this to promote spiritual inertia in believers, by distracting and discouraging us, while pushing us to be soft in our convictions and purpose. But 1 Corinthians 9 calls us to ac…

In this powerful message, Pastor Brandon takes us deep into the meaning and prophetic significance of Deuteronomy 8:3, where we’re reminded that "man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the LORD." Through the lens of Israel’s wilderness experience, Pastor Brandon uncovers a timely principle: freedom with…

There are times when we feel like the Lord isn't responding to our prayers--even when we're praying what is good and honors Him. That can breed doubt and discontentment, so David affirms in Psalm 4 that we need to have a long view of the Lord's goodness and be confident in His mercy and sufficiency. The promise is that the Lord "sets apart those wh…

We're all given a name at birth, but our identity is largely formed by our character and choices. How people view us may not be how we hope they view us. As believers, we are evaluated by 5 categories: Our reputation, our spiritual maturity and passion, our example, our love and sacrifice, and our ministry impact. It's vital that we represent Chris…

Welcome to Rock Harbor Church on Sermon Audio. In this powerful teaching, Pastor Brandon Holthaus exposes the dangerous rise of unrestrained behavior—both in the world and inside the modern Church. From the orgiastic rebellion at the Golden Calf to today's woke culture and apostate pulpits, this message traces the biblical pattern of casting off re…

In 1 Samuel, Abigail was a Godly woman who was married to a worthless man named Nabal, who intentionally offended future king David. Rather than letting David sin by killing Nabal, Abigail took wise steps to defuse the situation, protect lives and help David stay in God's will. This calls us to humble sacrifice, especially when we see the Lord's ha…

We are witnessing a global surge of antisemitism—disguised as a fight for “human rights” and cloaked in the language of anti-Zionism. Millions now believe the lie that Jews are colonial occupiers in their own ancestral homeland, ignoring international law and the historical record—including Israel’s defensive wars and 2005 withdrawal from Gaza.

Consistency and faithfulness in our faith and life tend to be underrated qualities, but the Lord greatly values them, especially because they dictate how we live. When David sinned with Bathsheeba, his character and behaviour were clearly altered, marked by emotional instability and irrational decisions. The fact that the devil tried to seize on th…

Jesus' resurrection was verified by hundreds who saw Him alive, but there is another powerful Truth that comes from it: The fact that when we trust Him to save us, He makes us alive, too. This is not an improved adaptation of our old life which was controlled by sin--it is now dead! And as those made alive in Christ, we gratefully make significant …

There were two groups--the Jewish leaders and Romans--with everything to gain if Jesus stayed dead, and everything to lose if He was actually risen. But even a violent execution, a sealed tomb and extra soldiers could not defeat Jesus, because He has all power and victory over sin and the grave. This proves man's inability and our need for the salv…

It is historically likely that just one person was with Jesus from arrest to being put in the tomb--a Roman centurion. This harsh, secular leader had his heart changed as he witnessed the events and Jesus' humble reactions. His fresh faith and convictions were confirmed when Jesus died, and then there was no doubt once the tomb was empty. Video of …

In the week before HIs death, Jesus cleansed the temple of the moneychangers--an event that almost seems out of character. But while He was righteously angry, He was also deeply sad at the callousness of the people as they conveniently bought sacrifices in the temple. This reminds us that when we come to worship, we need to upend pride and careless…

As believers, we hear about the importance of God's Word, but do we love it? Do we have a strong relationship with it? As we go deeper into the Word, we find that it makes us uniquely wise, strengthens our faith and gives us distinct advantage in spiritual warfare. When we meditate on it, we will experience it's power in our lives. Video of this se…
