Thankfully, there is no kids menu in the Kingdom of God! Children can be powerfully filled with the Holy Spirit and used mightily of God. In this message, we examine the lives of three children in the bible who were powerfully used by God to change their world.

A good church does good things. A godly church demonstrates the Presence of God and the Power of God. In this message, Pastor Doug ends with a powerful challenge to "cut the rope". This teaching is a game changer for New River Church!

Godly parents change the world by raising world changers. There is a difference between good parents and godly parents. In this message, Pastor Doug encourages us to see the infinite value of our families. We hope you are blessed by this teaching from God's Word.

In this message Doug continues to explore the incredible potential of godly people by looking at the power of godly youth. He begins by interviewing a new friend named Colin.

All women have God given power, but godly women use that power for great good. In this Mothers Day message, Pastor Doug tackles the difficult issue of women in leadership. In the Kingdom of God, men and women enjoy a co-equal relationship that is unmatched by anything that the world can experience. Jesus died to break the curse of sin and bring the genders together in a powerful way.

In this teaching, David takes us into a conversation that Jesus had with two of His disciples after His resurrection. Jesus, the risen Lord walked with them on the road and yet they did not recognize Him. They witnessed the greatest miracle ever, and they felt a burn in their hearts, but did not to respond. How will you respond when God begins to move in your life?

Naaman the Syrian had everything going for him, but he had leprosy. A Jewish slave girl in his household encouraged him to seek God for healing. Sometimes God's solution for our problems offends our pride. God works in ways we do not expect. Are you ready to rise up?!

There are two great proofs that Jesus lives. The first proof is that Jesus has changed your life. The second proof is how your life changes others. The same power that raised Jesus from the dead is at work in and through you...that's a game changer!

From ashes to glory...You took a risk, you thought it was a great idea, and all of your hopes turned to ashes. If this has ever happened in your life and you have wondered what God might be doing, this message from our Easter celebration will encourage you. The resurrection of Jesus is a reminder that God can turn your ashes into glory!

In this message, Pastor Doug talks about the real spiritual battle that rages around us. Jesus taught us to pray, "deliver us from the evil one." This can only mean that the evil one is a potential problem for us. The good news is that we are not alone in this war. Jesus fights it with us. Be encouraged, you cannot lose!
