Join us as we dive into our series Identity with guest speaker Rick McKinley to experience the…

In this special New Years Eve Church-at-home edition of Rise City Church, pastor Pete discusses how the concept of hope in the New Testament is far more than merely wishing for good things to happen. It's the full expectation that a good God who loves us will bring it.저자 Pete Goodman

On Easter, we reflect on the truth that Jesus Christ died, was buried, and rose again from the dead.

Pastor Pete Goodman shares this year's Easter message, "Restored."저자 Pete Goodman

At Rise City Church, we reflect a culture of generosity rooted in our faith in Jesus Christ. We recognize that all we have is a gift from God, and when we give, we are giving back to the One who has given us everything.

Pastor Brandon Grant concludes the Colossians series and preaches final message as lead pastor of Rise City Church with a sermon entitled, "Grace Be With You."저자 Brandon Grant

In a time when it often feels like the local culture pushes us away from God's calling, it can be tempting to think that moving elsewhere is the solution.

Pastor Brandon continues in a series through the book of Colossians:Unprecedented by reading through and teaching on Colossians 2:1-10.저자 Brandon Grant

Love, at its core, is spelled out through time—time spent in the presence of the one we love. God simply desires access to us, craving moments of connection and intimacy so we can know Him deeply. Unlike Moses, who acted as an intermediary between the people and God, we now have direct communion with the Father through Jesus and the Holy Spirit liv…

In this week's message, Pastor Robert leans into the surprising truth that is found in the midst of pain and suffering.저자 Robert Pedroza

When you think about judgement, it may spark a variety of thoughts and emotions. So when we speak of God’s justice, it might make you uneasy. But the truth is, God has a divine justice that works on a different timeline. His love, mercy, and perfection are always at work in His justice. He doesn’t call us to offer up vengeance, rather calls us to l…

Pete Goodman continues through a book study on Colossians with a message called "Jesus Is Everything."저자 Pete Goodman

Have you ever heard stories that happened before you were born and wondered how that was even possible? Pretty crazy to think that time existed before you could comprehend it. But God has always existed! Because He is the Creator of time, God sees all of time. This means He sees every moment of sin and brokenness in our past with the same vivid cla…

Kindness is what our world needs more of, but without knowing the origin of true kindness you aren't able to fully express it.

Listen in this week as guest p…

If God is love, as it's written in John, how are his people so bad at it sometimes? God's own church struggles to be loving to one another.

Pastor Brandon continues the Non-Negotiable sermon series with a message on purity.저자 Brandon Grant

The character of God is completely unique. Above all things, He is holy in everything He ever does, He is set apart from evil, and His holiness is always.

Pastor Brandon shares in his message "Simply Christmas" from the Christmas services at Rise City Church.저자 Brandon Grant

All you need to do is turn on the news or scroll through social media and you'll see a world filled with tremendous suffering and pain. It's foolish to think that evil doesn't exist. But there is hope. The kingdom of heaven is different from the kingdom of this world. Jesus came as a humble, suffering servant to conquer evil and darkness and to bri…
