Rosewood Church Sermons

Pastor Lisa brings the word with a powerful reminder: Where praise rises, chains fall. In Acts 16, Paul and Silas were beaten, bound, and imprisoned — yet they chose to praise. Their midnight worship didn’t just open prison doors — it broke spiritual chains and saved a household.

What’s the greatest expression of love the world has ever known? In this message, we explore John 3:16 to discover The Greatest Love, The Greatest Gift, and The Greatest Promise ever given. God’s love is extravagant—lavished on us even while we were still sinners. He gave us the ultimate gift: His one and only Son. And through Jesus, we’re offered an unshakable promise of eternal life. Join us as we reflect on the depth of God’s love, the power of His gift, and the certainty of His promise to all who believe.

Pastor Nick brings the word from Lessons from Peter & John – Bold Faith in Risky Times from Acts 4:1–22 (NLT) What happens when you speak boldly about Jesus in a world that pushes back? In this powerful message, we explore six key lessons from Peter and John that reveal the cost—and the reward—of standing firm in your faith. ✅ Faith may be risky. Do it anyway. ✅ Someone will believe when you share the Gospel. ✅ Expect opposition—even when you do good. ✅ There is unmatched power in the name of Jesus. ✅ God gives boldness when you need it most. ✅ Only Jesus can save us from our sin. Listen now and be encouraged to live boldly for Christ, no matter the cost.

Rev. Dr. Lisa Outar-O'Shea shares from Luke 24:35-49 (NLT), showing how Jesus' resurrection still changes everything for us. He shows up in our doubts and fears, offering peace and real hope. He reminds us that we’re not alone, that our faith can grow even in uncertainty, and that we have a purpose bigger than ourselves. Jesus opens our eyes to the truth of who He is — and invites us to live it out every day.

Drawing from John 20 and the surrounding gospel accounts, we’re reminded that: - Jesus’ victory over the grave means death is not the end. - He meets us in our doubts and helps us believe. - He brings peace to our fears and comfort to our tears. Whether you're watching or listening, may this message renew your faith and remind you why Easter truly is great news.

Days Before Jesus’ Crucifixion & Resurrection Series- Judas’ Betrayal Luke 22:1-6, 47-53 (NLT) The Festival of Unleavened Bread, which is also called Passover, was approaching. 2 The leading priests and teachers of religious law were plotting how to kill Jesus, but they were afraid of the people’s reaction. 3 Then Satan entered into Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve disciples, 4 and he went to the leading priests and captains of the Temple guard to discuss the best way to betray Jesus to them. 5 They were delighted, and they promised to give him money. 6 So he agreed and began looking for an opportunity to betray Jesus so they could arrest him when the crowds weren’t around. _____________________________________________ 47 But even as Jesus said this, a crowd approached, led by Judas, one of the twelve disciples. Judas walked over to Jesus to greet him with a kiss. 48 But Jesus said, “Judas, would you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?” 49 When the other disciples saw what was about to happen, they e

Exodus 19:9-22 (NLT) 9 Then the Lord said to Moses, “I will come to you in a thick cloud, Moses, so the people themselves can hear me when I speak with you. Then they will always trust you.” Moses told the Lord what the people had said. 10 Then the Lord told Moses, “Go down and prepare the people for my arrival. Consecrate them today and tomorrow and have them wash their clothing. 11 Be sure they are ready on the third day, for on that day the Lord will come down on Mount Sinai as all the people watch. 12 Mark off a boundary all around the mountain. Warn the people, ‘Be careful! Do not go up on the mountain or even touch its boundaries. Anyone who touches the mountain will certainly be put to death. 13 No hand may touch the person or animal that crosses the boundary; instead, stone them or shoot them with arrows. They must be put to death.’ However, when the ram’s horn sounds a long blast, then the people may go up on the mountain.” 14 So Moses went down to the people. He consecrated them for worship, and th
