INVEST RESOURCES

RockPointe’s emphasis for 2024 was to
INVEST in the Kingdom of God

After spending a year building a foundation of prayer, we shifted our attention to investing in the Kingdom of God. God’s kingdom is expansive, and includes the ways we use (spend) all God has given us: time, influence, abilities, relationships, and yes, even our financial resources. 

Here are the resources we added that will help you INVEST in the Kingdom of God.
