Pastor Rob Ketterling
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 42: Pastor Rob has been leading River Valley for well over 25 years. He has seen many changes in his staff, from healthy transitions to unhealthy transitions. In this episode, he breaks down all that he has learned from hiring and firing from his time in ministry. Hiring someone is an exciting and large step to take, as the people we hire in ministry are responsible for ministering to our congregations. Having to let people go is another challenge, and Pastor Rob speaks to it all as he has seen many challenges in this area of leading an organization!
Pastor Rob casts a fresh vision for 2023! This year, we will be on mission as we take ground!
Pastor Rob Ketterling encourages us to ask for God's will as we celebrate our biggest weekend of the year: Miracle Offering!

John Bevere shares a POWERFUL message and challenges us to be unoffendable. We pray this message encourages you to live an unoffendable life, pray for those who have mistreated you and seek reconciliation.
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 Kirk continues our Christmas Series and encourages us to be bold about proclaiming our salvation.
