The Heart of the Gospel

The Heart of the Gospel

This week’s message brings us back to the heart of the gospel: the good news of what God has done for us through Jesus. As we remember that the gospel is not just the starting point of faith but the foundation for everyday life, we’re invited to rest in God’s grace and live with renewed hope.

Father's Day 2026

This Father’s Day, elders Matt Mastroine and Nick Shrock share a meaningful conversation on fatherhood, influence, and spiritual mentorship. Their reflections remind us that the people who faithfully show up in our lives can leave a lasting mark—and that each of us has the opportunity to encourage, guide, and point others toward Jesus.

Open My Eyes

In this message from Matthew 20:29–34, we follow the story of two blind men who refused to let the crowd keep them from Jesus. As they cried out for mercy, Jesus stopped, called them, and responded with compassion. Be encouraged to bring your struggles, needs, and questions to Christ with courage, trusting that He still hears our cries and invites us to follow Him.

Finding Fruitfulness

In this message from Acts 2:46–47, we look at the example of the early church and discover the habits that led to lasting spiritual fruitfulness. Through fellowship, shared meals, worship, and a genuine love for others, God worked powerfully in and through His people. Be encouraged to pursue the things that draw you closer to Christ and create opportunities for Him to bring fruitfulness into your life.

Senior Sunday 2026

In this special Graduation Sunday service, we celebrate and pray over the graduating seniors of Riverside Community Church as they step into a new season of life. Through encouragement from God’s Word and reflections on His faithfulness, we’re reminded to trust the Lord’s leading, follow Him boldly, and remain grounded in our faith through every new chapter ahead.
