Riverside Community Church Sermons

Today Steve helps us see that everyone has to reckon with the person of Jesus. Concerning the kinds of things he said, we cannot remain neutral.

What we notice in Acts 2 is that the Spirit comes down, and the message goes out! We need to learn to be people who are filled with God and who - in turn - become life-giving to others around us with the life we have received.

In Acts 2, Peter stands up in the middle of the action and preaches the Gospel powerfully. Sizwe shows the backstory of how Jesus restored Peter so that he could stand with such courage on this day.

Steve helps us see how the age we are living in is an age defined by the giving of the Spirit to ALL of God's people, not just a select few.

As we conclude our week of prayer and fasting, Steve shares where things are at concerning the building, but more importantly, he shares perspective on what the Lord is doing in our midst as a church.

When the Spirit of God gave life to the church 2000 years ago, the church was filled and empowered in order to fully be the Body of Christ through which Jesus continues his ministry. The invitation and the challenge for us is to be filled and empowered by the same Spirit in order to continue being the vessel through whom Jesus continues his powerful ministry today.

As we begin a deep dive into what made the early church of Acts 2 so powerful, our desire is for God to continue in us the same story he started in them 2000 years ago.

We look at what Jesus calls the Greatest Commandments and learn how to put First Things First as we move into 2026.

Sizwe encourages us to not miss out what God is doing this year.

Dr Pohlmann shares a challenging message on starting the year at peace with God, with others and within ourselves.

This Christmas Day, we look at how despite all the challenges thrown against the life of the baby Jesus, God supernaturally preserved his life. If darkness couldn't take Jesus out then, this means we can put our ultimate trust in him.

In Matthew chapter 2, we are introduced to two main sets of characters, the Magi and King Herod. Both are faced with the truth about the birth of the prophesied king, but they respond in two very different ways.

Steve looks at the Christmas narrative in Matthew which describes the names that were given to Jesus. These names speak powerfully of a God who moves towards us in our chaos and our sin!

See how God's Promises of Blessing are fulfilled through the genealogy of Jesus in Matthew 1.

As we learn to engage the Psalms, we grow in our ability to engage God with mind as well as heart! Psalm 63 will help us seek the life-giving Presence of God in the wilderness places of our lives.

Learning to lament with the Psalms is an unexpected invitation to experiencing life and intimacy with Jesus.

Today we look at one of the most important Psalms that point towards the identity of Jesus. The New Testament quotes Psalm 2 in many different ways, highlighting how Jesus is the Messiah, God's Unstoppable Anointed King.

In Nehemiah 8 we see God's people gathered to hear God's Word. Steve unpacks how the Word convicts us and then how God leads us to wholeness.

Proverbs 1 shows us how God's Wisdom teaches us to live by God's Ways in God's World

Isaiah is the richest book from the Old Testament, referred to in the New Testament, especially as it pertains to Jesus as Anointed King, bringing God's Kingdom.
