Our voyage as a church through the big, beautiful biblical story has thus far been like every long road trip I’ve ever been on: the very first part is a thrill! You cross the city limits, begin to feel like you’re on vacation, out of the same-o
Who do you have for the November fight: Mike Tyson or Jake Paul? Paul, a young gun who specializes in hubris, vs. Tyson, a tried and true fighter. It will be an epic showdown that will be one of the most watched fights in history. Thanks Netfli
We are continuing our fly-over look at the unifying story of the Bible, in a series we are calling “You Are Here.” Join us in Genesis 12, location... Abraham.If we trace our ancestors back far enough, each of us will likely find a pivotal mom
We have started a very fast pace through the Bible narrative. We are telling the grand story of the Bible, from creation, to the fall, and God’s plan of redemption. We are in phase two, the fall, on Fathers Day of all days. Dads, do not despair
What is really, really, real (ultimate reality)? Is there a Creator and, if so, what is that Creator like? What is that Creator into? Why did the Creator create? Who are you? Why are you? Where are you? Why does any of it matter? Questions like
Whether we're conscious of it or not, each of us lives from a story on the nature of things--a story of what is true and good and worth living for. Which begs the questions: What story am I really living from? Is that story true? The 66 books o
We live in an age of punditry and “posting” that encourages us to evaluate everything in real time. Is this decision good or bad? Is this person right or wrong? Is this effort worthwhile or wasteful? Kendrick or Drake? Tell me! Quick! Make up y
So, we have established that David is a man after God‘s own heart, yes, the David that swayed from the path. Let’s talk more about the heart. Are our hearts, corrupt and get a complete makeover when we meet Jesus and then everything is hunky-do
It’s Mother’s Day and we don’t want to miss the moment. We plan to honor our moms that make us all who we are today. Count on that. As we talked, it might be nice to have one of our women teachers focus on motherhood, but we are not sure if we
This work series has been one of my all time favorites, but it felt like something was missing for me. What about the work I do that takes my greatest focus, the most patience, the longest time, all of the energy, and has the highest stakes? RA

I love trees. Their grandeur as they reach for the sky paints a beautiful picture of how we, and the whole creation, were made to worship the Creator. Two trees stand out among the many described in our Scriptures. They are both called “the tre
Here’s an interesting question. So what’s the difference between the Christ follower and the non Christ follower as it relates to our work? Is there such a difference as a Christian baker, a non Christian lawyer, a Christian plumber, and a non
Join us as we venture further into our exploration of that thing we spend so much of our lives in, on, and around: work. Last week we examined the scriptural prescription for a healthy posture toward work. We dreamed about being workers who, in
Often, one of the biggest chasms in the life of a modern follower of Jesus is the great canyon between Sunday and Monday. Sunday, you gather with your brothers and sisters in Christ, do Christian things like sing worship songs, pray, or hear fr
The Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the confluence of two powerful realties. Both are like strong rivers that flow together to form headwaters that we call the Resurrection. As rivers collide, a stronger one emerges, bringing even wilder, more
As the River Church walks together towards Easter Sunday, we are pondering the manifold relevancies of the resurrection. Last Sunday, Brooke powerfully brought us into a conversation between Jesus and Martha about resurrection. We took time in
Easter's coming up (it's in March this year?!) and so is that big Christian word we talk about every Easter... the "resurrection." Many of us who have spent time in the church know what the resurrection was and even what it means, but I've been
Marco Polo met the great Kahn, Gengis Kahn, the leader of the Mongol Empire during the early 1100’s. He asked the secret to his military might. He said he trains his officers to take care of their men before they take care of themselves. And my
We often describe The River Church as “highly (hopelessly) relational.” Is this true? I think so. But, it can easily come across as trite, just another marketing cliché. We are bombarded with immense content, endless notifications, and soul-suc
Having spent the majority of his medical career serving disenfranchised communities in India, the doctor Paul Brand made this striking observation after his return to the United States: "Patients [in the U.S.] lived at a greater comfort level t
Peter wants us to be ready to make a defense of the hope that lies within us. Yet, with gentleness and reverence. For a non religious person, the idea that Jesus came from heaven as God, died on a cross for our sins and rose again so we might h
It's not hard to see how life with Jesus gives personal comfort and purpose, but what resources does life with Jesus give for our actual day to day in the real world? What does the way of Jesus have to do with our romantic life, or building a c
Someone needs to. The world is in desperate need of someone to do the right thing. We have become a world of bad news. But, so much good is happening, it’s just not making the headlines. And most of it by good people, many who are followers of
Dr. W Gruden writes in his systematic theology, “Because there is sin that still remains in our hearts even though we have become Christians (Rom. 6:12-13; I John 1:8), our sanctification (fancy work for spiritual growth) will never be complete
