Riverside Church

This week we launched a new series called 'Show and Tell' - Showing Jesus through our actions and words. This week, Jake looked at the great Commission and the call to discipleship.

At the end of our Foundations series, we take time to reflect on what God has been saying to us over the past few weeks, and how we might relate these things to our lives.

In the last talk of this series, Jake looks at the significance of where God places us.

Jake looks at how our understanding of God as love sets a foundation for everything that we do at Riverside.

Jake concludes our Mountains series looking at our shared calling and our unique calling.

This week we look at who we are and why we are here. Jake talks about how believing truths, rather than the lies, about our identity is key to our spiritual formation, and will help anchor us when we face mountains.

We all have times in our lives when God’s love is obscured by difficult circumstances. Simon looks at what we can do when we can’t see past the mountains of our pain…

Circumstances in our life can feel like mountains – challenging, difficult to overcome, seemingly immovable. Simon begins our new series looking at navigating life’s mountains and how they can be places where we find intimate encounters with God.

Simon concludes our series looking at the overarching mission of the Holy Spirit to turn our lives outward to show God’s love to all people.
