Our Values

God's Word
The Bible is God's inspired word to us without any mixture of error. It provides us with a standard for living out the relationship God desires us to have with him, with each other and with all people.

Multiplication
God loves people and it's His desire for us to have a ministry of sharing the good news of Jesus Christ with others that we might take part in multiplying God's family.

Cultural Relevance
We believe in order to win people to Christ, we must be relevant. This affects our overall atmosphere, our dress, worship style, language, messages, teaching and ministry.

Worship
We believe we are to love God with all our heart. We worship God with music, singing, giving, praying, and daily living. This worship philosophy helps us have greater intimacy with God and a Godly influence on others for the cause of Christ.

Empowerment
We believe every Believer is a minister, so it's our desire to empower people to minister by serving first through the local church and secondly through and in the local community. Members of River Church are released to carry out the mission of the Church as they feel led by the Holy Spirit.
