This week we are thinking about the second message in our series called, Life’s Biggest Questions and the question, How Can We Know That There IS a God? If you weren’t there on Sunday you can listen to the podcast here.

To help get things started at Small Groups this week, here are a few questions for us to consider:

1. When you hear the word tolerence, what comes to mind?  Intolerance?
2. What have been some of your experiences with the theories of Darwin and atheism?
3. What is your confidence level in talking with people with opposing world views?
4. What can you do to raise your confidence?
5. Which world view  best explains our world and our human condition?
6. What does the world say about this?  What should we say?

THE CLUES OF GOD—Discuss the following:
1. The Big Bang Mystery – Why is there something, rather than nothing?
2. How did it know we were coming?
3. The regularity of nature.

Read Mark 12:28-34

Well, as it turns out, neither science, philosophy nor religion has been able to answer these questions to everyone’s satisfaction.

At The Rock Church we believe that there is no better time than the present to learn to talk about the big questions of life in more tolerant and respectful ways.

The first four chapters of Matthew’s Gospel have been the introduction to the King of the Jews, the Messiah, Jesus Christ into this world, his baptism by John, temptations in the wilderness and the calling of his first disciples.

Chapter 5 begins what can only be categorized as the greatest sermon ever preached, by anyone, at any time—The Sermon on the Mount and Beginning with the Beatitudes!

After calling his disciples and taking them briefly on their first road trip, Jesus now sees the crowd of people who are following and he goes to the highest point on a local mountain and begins to preach the message that will change the world of that day and the world that follows.

At The Rock Church we believe that there is no better time than the present to learn to talk about the big questions of life in more tolerant and respectful ways. The first Sunday of each month we are dedicating to this new series entitled Life’s Biggest Questions and asking the questions that we all have about the meaning of life and faith in God.

Join us this Sunday at The Rock Church as we look at the first question in our Life’s Biggest Questions series—How Can We Know That There Is a God?

Welcome to KidsRock! Whether your kids have been involved since The Rock Church started or this Sunday will be your first time visiting us, we are thrilled to have them be a part of this ministry.

We would like to tell you about some things that will make you and your child’s experience at The Rock the best it can be.

We are offering great Bible stories and teaching the children Bible verses. The mission, or purpose, of The Rock Church’s KidsRock is to provide intentional opportunities for kids to get to know Jesus, not only as God, but also as their best friend.

We offer a complete program that will teach your children 3 basic truths that we learn from Luke 2:52:

“Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men”

So we want every kid to know and understand these three things: I need to make the wise choice (wisdom); I can trust God no matter what (faith); and I should treat others the way I want to be treated (friendship). All Sunday School lessons focus on at least one of the three basic concept areas from this verse (wisdom, faith, and friendship) in addition to “biblical” concepts (like God, Jesus, the Bible, the church, family, community, and self).

The Rock Church’s Small Group Communities gather weekly for fellowship and accountability, great food and cool drinks, study and prayer, good times and tears, and are an essential expression of our church’s mission.

At the heart of community groups is the desire to see a community of believers who worship Jesus, love one another, and embody the mission of The Rock Church to make Jesus known by being disciple-makers.
