Prayer Walking

This short video points out three helpful insights when trying on the Spiritual Discipline of Prayer Walking:

1. Find out about your community/neighborhood/ school's history
A. What are its gifts/legacies?
B. What needs to be redeemed?

2. Pray and ask God for revelation about what God wants you to know more about your community/neighborhood/schools.

3. Pray and ask God to open your eyes to strongholds in the community, and how to fill the empty spaces and bless the community/neighborhood/schools.

As we continue to "walk out" our lives with daring faith, Jesus will be right beside us, holding our hands, reminding us that "what is impossible with men is possible with God." Lk 18:27.
Lent is the time to remember that Jesus turned crucifixions into resurrections.
He specializes in the impossible! ✨✨✨
And nothing is too big to prayer walk for, and redeem and bless in our neighborhoods/communities/schools....
What may look like a dead end to us and fills us with anxiety and despair(the drugs, bullying, violence, addictions, suicides in our schools or the politics and uncivil behavior of our neighborhood and communities)- those are exactly the places that God wants us to walk out into....and redeem them to reveal His glory.✨✨✨ St. Patrick is a wonderful model today- he walked out his daring faith all over Ireland to redeem the country back to God (and legend has it that he even chased out all the serpents out of Ireland). What a beautiful picture of prayer walking deliveranceπŸ€πŸ€πŸ€

The River Hopes: Let's Get this Party Started.

Unstuck. It’s been almost three years. My husband and I came back from living and serving overseas in the fall of 2014. It was supposed to be only a year, but God had other plans as our parents health declined. Jim figured out how to make continued ministry to pastors in Asia work…commuting.  I’ve been finding ways to be useful, and knowing the Lord has things to teach me in transition. But, last December a handful of  The River  women prayed after church about how we could pitch in with the Refugee crisis... and... something started brewing: "The River Hopes" In January Pastor Todd invited some folks together to talk about our direction regarding outreach as a church. We know  the church is individual believers in community , and not just those few who happened to make it to an evening meeting, so... The consensus was that we should have a better grasp of  what we’re already doing  before we decide where we should concentrate moving forward. I had this g

Reboot / Simplicity

As we officially enter into Spring this week, we invite you to try on the Spiritual Discipline of Simplicity this week.  Remember that term "Spring cleaning?"   It used to be a real rhythm of housekeeping- that once a year, in the spring, you would take inventory and wash and clean the things in your house that tend to get overlooked on a regular basis, and throw out or donate unused/unnecessary items.   It was tedious mundane work, but left you with a feeling of renewed energy and accomplishment to get your house in order. God's character is perfect order; He is not a God of confusion.   Made in His image and likeness, He desires our souls to be orderly too (not PERFECT, but ordered in our thoughts, emotions and behavior to reflect Him).   As Todd taught yesterday (if you didn't hear his incredible sermon, go and listen to it on the River website; and even if you did-it is worth hearing again)-  What, and where in our lives do we need a re-boot, a reset...a spring cl
