Episode 39: Here at River Valley, we have a local outreach ministry called Serve Our Community. Vicki Hernandez is our pastor who oversees Serve Our Community, and we are so blessed to have her join us for this episode! Pastor Vicki breaks down the heart behind serving our community, the work it takes to coordinate and plan these events, and what pouring out does to the community and the church alike. When we give with our own time and energy, it is amazing what God does to our hearts and to the community that receives it as well!
Episode 38: Pastor Charlotte Gambill joins us today as we talk about recognizing the call of God on your life, and jumping into it with faith and joy. Charlotte Gambill is a renown author, speaker, and teaching pastor at Church of the Highlands, as well as building Life Church in the UK and the US. Pastor Charlotte discusses her experience in finding her calling, and the testimony on her life as it came to stepping out in boldness to be obedient to the Lord's guidance. She also dives into leadership, the Queen's passing, and so much more. Grab onto the wisdom and experience that Charlotte has to share today!
Pastor Kirk teaches on the importance of Holy Communion. In this teaching we are reminded that through communion we show our gratitude for what was done on the cross and what awaits us in eternity. We cannot take communion and not encounter God!
Episode 34: Logan and Pastor Rob sit down to discuss the season of uncertainty that we all are feeling right now. With inflation rising, the country at odds, and various markets falling, it can be difficult to find the courage to continue running the mission that God has called you to do. Pastor Rob shares the various "crises" that he has had to lead through over the years, and how we can practically prepare for them. Listen now with your key leaders, and prepare you and your church for all that the world will try to throw your way!
In part one of “I Didn’t Ask For This,” Pastor Rob challenges us to stop trying to assign blame and understand that all suffering will end someday.
Joe Anderson shares a powerful testimony of God's redemptive power. In this message, Joe reminds us that sovereignty + surrender = redemption!
Episode 45: As a church, there can be what seems to feel like an unlimited number of events within the calendar year, let alone the calendar month! With all of your ministries going on, and each ministry needing weekly consistency combined with a few special events, it can be tricky to navigate planning the calendar. Our Associate Director of Experience, Michaela Johnson, and our Discipleship Pastor, Connor Ketterling, break down how River Valley plans their church-wide calendar, as well as their own personal calendars as they navigate ministry life on top of that. With the amount of campuses, staff, and congregants that River Valley has, we are excited to share our victories and lessons we learned with you!
Pastor Rob reminds us that even after everything, God still comes through! We pray this message encourages you to trust God on another level this week!
Episode 44: We are so excited to have Terry Parkman join us again for today's episode on what it truly means to disciple this next generation. Pastor Terry explains that our world today is post modernism, post church, and post truth. This means that culture today is moving from facts and truth and toward feelings, personal desires, and sin to be their truth. In the world's view, it doesn't matter what the facts say, because you can just create your own truth. The next generation is getting taught to live this way, and we need to be equipped to truly minister to them!
Pastor Kirk encourages us to live differently and worship no matter what!
Episode 31: Services are such a crucial aspect of many of our ministries. Whether it be a Sunday service for your congregation, a worship service dedicated to seeking after God, or a big Christmas Eve service where families gather together under candlelight. Services are important, and much ministry happens before, during, and after service time. Aaron Johnson, our Local Creative Pastor, and Caleb Moore, our Production Lead, break down what goes through their minds as they map out each service here at River Valley. They discuss the audience, the worship moments, the unity needed between all working parties, and so much more. Listen as they share on their passion for service moments, as this influences your incredible services to come!
