PASTOR ROD’S WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
FRIDAY, July 10, 2026
Aloha Friday NHM ‘Ohana!
It’s always been in my heart, that the vision for our church… is God and people. More personally stated, my vision for our church is YOU! I believe God’s vision is YOU!
“Now this is eternal life: that they know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom You have sent.” — John 17:3 NIV
CONTINUED…
Before Jesus gave His life for His people, He prayed for the life of His people.
The night before the cross, Jesus prayed for His disciples and for all who would one day believe in Him. His prayer gives us an awesome picture of God’s vision for His people.
GOD’S VISION FOR HIS PEOPLE
Jesus didn’t come just to get us into heaven someday, but to bring us into a mānoa, life-giving relationship with the Father. There is a difference between knowing about God and really knowing God.
We can do the right things and live the right way: know Bible stories, attend church, sing worship songs, and serve in ministry… but these great disciplines won’t give us eternal life or get us a “better grade” with God. Jesus reminds us that eternal life is found in knowing Him personally. He invites us into a relationship—to know His heart, voice, grow in trust, walking with Him…one day at a time.
This Sunday, I’ll be sharing from John 17 as we look at God’s vision for you and I. Join me as we discover a few important observations of Jesus’ prayer and His vision for us.
Lord, may we not only know more about You—may we truly know You, love You, and walk closely with You.
MESSAGE SLIDES
Message slides are available every Sunday morning.
2026 SERIES | THE WORDS OF JESUS IN THE GOSPELS
PERSONAL | PRACTICAL | POWERFUL
We are surrounded by a variety of voices and endless opinions.
Whose words do we trust?
In a world of half-truths and competing messages, we must learn to discern the voice of God and look to the words of Jesus in the Gospels. Jesus spoke life and lived the truth. ≫Read more

BELONGING | OUR CHURCH MEMBERSHIP
Does our church have a membership course? If you are curious what our pastor or church believes about membership, please visit the link below.
“Belonging to God and New Hope Mānoa: Our Family Declaration” is what we would refer to as our membership course.
The booklet is downloadable and video teaching links are available below. Hard copies are available at our Welcome Table on Sundays.
Are you interested in being Water Baptized?
If you are interested in being water baptized, please read the brochure linked below. Reach out to Pastor Rod or Malia to schedule a personal baptism date. Invite your friends and family to celebrate your monumental decision!
What is the significance of water baptism? Baptism signifies that through repentance, forgiveness, and faith, we belong to Jesus. As Christians, we are identifying with Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection. ≫Read more

GIVING AT MĀNOA
Tithes & Offering: What Our Pastor Believes
“You must each decide in your heart how much to give. And don’t give reluctantly or in response to pressure. ‘For God loves a person who gives cheerfully.’ And God will generously provide all you need. Yes, you will be enriched in every way so that you can always be generous.“
2 Corinthians 9:7-8 NLT
The bottom line to me (my opinion and belief) is that as Christians, we should ask God where He wants us to give and how much.
I’ve been asked numerous times, “Pastor, do I need to give 10% of my income to the church?” ≫Continue reading
