The Rock Church in Squamish, BC is a new expression of a 2,000 year-old movement called ekklesia in the Greek world of that day, but more familiar to us today as—the church. We are followers of the one true Jesus Christ, who love God, love our neighbours and love Squamish. We value Jesus above all, authenticity, creativity and generosity and seek to engage our culture with the amazing grace of the gospel of Jesus Christ. We don’t pretend to have our lives all together, but we do turn our lives over to an awesome God who does.

Kings may not be in fashion today although Presidents and Prime Ministers are our modern day equivalent. What do we want in a king? How much power are we willing to vest in kings today? In Matthew’s depiction of Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem as King, we see similar attitudes and expectations in the people of that day. Join us as we discover what kind of King Jesus portrays.

No wonder that in Matthew 18, in response to his disciples question about who would be the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven, Jesus called a small child to his side and replied, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.”
