We would be looking for several people who could work up to up to 30 hours a week from mid-August to mid-May. Don't let this next one scare you off. Each person would need to raise ...
Numbers
This has been an exciting year at Riverview as we expanded the capacity of our Holt Venue, launched a new Church Planting Residency with our MSU Venue, and began preparations for another church plant within the next year. We are also gearing up to send over 200 people to Mazatlan, Mexico on short term mission trips in 2012, including all six of our pastors. ...
The Woman Class
In the book of Titus, Paul throws down the gauntlet to a young pastor that he is to "teach what accords with sound doctrine" (Titus 2:1) and then he tells him how this plays out with different groups within the church.

Acceptable Sins
This past weekend at Riv, we continued our series on sins we think are acceptable in our culture. I shared the top ten results I got from my text message poll from the first week and a lot of people wanted to see the rest of the list. Here it is, listed from most common response to least. Oh, and just because it appears on this list, doesn't mean it's a sin. ...

No Major Major Mistakes
Um...oops. But how often do we think the same about ourselves...at least a little bit. Maybe not about our past, but our present. That's what we're talking about this weekend at Riv.
Theological Musing From Eminem
Every once in awhile, a song will strike a chord in me and I won't be able to shake it. Lately, that song has been "Not Afraid" by Eminem. Now, obviously I don't agree with everything he says or the language he uses to make his point, but there are little bits in this song that ring true for me. For instance, these lyrics: And I just can't keep living this ...
