Rooted in one of our core values — “A place to belong” — this message reminds us that real community is built on honesty, grace, and loving connection. Balancing truth and love.Drawing from 1 John 4:19, Beck encourages us to love because God first loved us, and to live out “real relationships” as we grow together in Christ at The Rock.

Ainsley Todd shares how biblical hospitality goes beyond acts of service — it’s about making space in our hearts and lives for others. From 1 Peter 4:8–9 to Philippians 2 and 1 Corinthians 12, we’re reminded that love looks like showing up, serving humbly, and welcoming others in.

Louisa de Bruyn challenges us to move beyond hearing God's promises — and start taking Jesus at His word.
