Is God's Good Good Enough?

Three Truths for Times of Transition

In our final Sunday as Riverstone, we looked at Joshua 3-5, considering how God led Israel through a great transition. During times of transition today, there are three truths we can remember as we honor God through every change and season.

Is God's Good Good Enough?

The Israelites had been in the wilderness for a long time—so long that they started to think God's leadership and provision weren't good enough. Have you ever been in that situation? Our world certainly is. Numbers 21:4-9 helps us consider what went wrong and God's solution.

Contentment and Joy

Paul closes his letter by referring to the support of the Philippian church. He offers gratitude infused with theology as he maintains his firm position: Jesus is the defining reality of his life. As such, he knows contentment and joy. We're invited to find contentment and joy in Jesus, too.

Don't Settle!

Philippians is all about joy, but it's mostly about Jesus. In Philippians 3, Paul says don't settle for religious joy, selfish joy, or even merely knowing Jesus. Instead Paul reveals that the greatest joy comes from pursuing Jesus.

Joy Through Humble Service

Philippians is packed with popular verses we know and love. But the parts in between are just as important! In this message, we look at a portion in which Paul focuses on two people who exemplify a life of humble service, following Jesus' example. Philippians 2:19-30.
