Jason Worf

Meet Ross Brower, the new Bible worker at Pasco Riverview Adventist Church! In this episode of Riverview Conversations, Pastor Jason Worf sits down with Ross to get to know him, hear about his journey, and explore his passion for sharing Jesus and helping others grow in their faith.

Phil, Ross, and Jason continue through the Gospel of Mark, exploring Jesus’ surprising definition of greatness. In Mark 9:30–50, Jesus turns the disciples’ ambitions upside down—calling them to serve others, welcome the overlooked, take sin seriously, and live at peace with one another. The conversation also examines Jesus’ challenging words about Gehenna, unquenchable fire, and what they reveal about judgment and the cost of following Jesus.

In this conversation Jason and Phil consider the transfiguration of Jesus and the young man that Jesus healed afterwards.

How do we hear God’s voice—in the pages of Scripture and in the quiet moments of everyday life?

In this episode of Riverview Conversations, Shonna joins us to talk about hearing God through the Bible and that “still, small voice.” Through personal stories and thoughtful conversation, she helps us see a God who is present, attentive, and actively involved in the lives of His children.

Join us for an encouraging conversation about listening for God, and making room to pay attention to Him.

How does the Seventh-day Adventist Church make decisions—and where does your voice fit in? Jason and Shonna reflect on their experience as delegates to the North Pacific Union constituency meeting. They explore church structure, shared resources, younger voices in leadership, and discussions about organizational change and women’s ordination—all through the lens of prayer, respectful disagreement, and shared mission.

Jason and Phil discuss the 2nd time Jesus feeds a large crowd, the healing of a deaf man, and a conversation with the disciples about how they allow their thoughts to be influenced by the powerful and the religiously pious. Join us for a conversation about Mark 8:1-21.

In Mark 7:24–37, Jesus heals a Gentile woman’s daughter and a deaf man who could barely speak. Jason and Phil discuss faith, persistence, healing, and how these stories reveal Jesus’ compassion reaching beyond cultural and religious boundaries.

In this episode of Riverview Conversations, Jason and Phil discuss Mark 7:1–23, where Jesus confronts the religious leaders over their traditions and redefines what truly makes a person unclean. The problem, Jesus explains, is not primarily what enters the body, but what comes from the human heart.

Together, they explore the tension between religious customs and God’s commands, the purpose of spiritual practices, and Jesus’ call to genuine inward transformation.
