Rise City Church

This week in our sermon series going through the Book of Ruth, Pastor Bobby unpacks the story of a woman whose loyalty and character set her apart. In this message, we look at how Ruth's reputation was shaped not just by her choices, but by her faith—and how she came to be known as someone who walked in God and man's favor.

On his final Sunday at Rise City Church, Pastor Pete Goodman shares a powerful and personal message rooted in one of Scripture’s most overlooked moments—Peter’s first encounter with Jesus.

As Pastor Pete reflects on this defining story, he unpacks the significance of Jesus’ first words to Peter—an invitation that didn’t just change Peter’s life, but continues to echo into our lives today. It’s a call to follow, to trust, and to step into the purpose God has for each of us.

This Mother’s Day at Rise City Church, Pastor Bobby unpacks the powerful story of Naomi from the book of Ruth. Through her journey of loss, resilience, and redemption, we’re invited to reflect on our own struggles and discover how God calls us to respond in the midst of hardship.

This week, we're joined by guest speaker Pastor Joe Riddle as he challenges the common mindset of chasing growth for growth's sake. In a culture driven by pressure and performance, Pastor Joe invites us to explore a better way—one where growth is rooted in the gospel, not the demands of modern society. What does it truly mean to grow in a way that honors God?

This week at Rise City Church, our Next Gen Pastor Mariah takes us to right where we left off in the Easter story last week and takes us through an interaction the risen Jesus has with two of the disciples to draw a parallel of what it looks like when we encounter Jesus in our lives today.

This Easter Sunday at Rise City Church, we celebrate the greatest moment in history—the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

In a world full of questions, uncertainties, and distractions, we pause to ask two of the most important questions anyone can ask:

"Is following Jesus worth it?"

"Is Jesus enough?"

As we wrap up our "Truth in Tension" sermon series, Pastor Bobby unpacks the powerful story of the woman caught in adultery. In this message, we take a closer look at how Jesus responded in this moment filled with judgment and shame—and what His response reveals about how He sees us in the midst of our sin, and how we are called to view our sin.

We're three weeks into our series "Truth In Tension", and this week Pastor Bobby dives into one of the most fascinating and seemingly contradictory moments in Jesus’ ministry where in one instance, Jesus miraculously feeds over 5,000 people with just five loaves and two fish - but not long after, He refuses to give into what the crowds are asking for.

Why would Jesus perform such an incredible miracle, only to later withhold what the people were asking for? What does this reveal about His character—and what does it mean for us today?

Going into week two of our new sermon series "Truth In Tension", pastor Bobby takes us into the moment when Jesus asks Peter how much he loves him, and uses this encounter to walk us through the tension of these two callings from Jesus; finding new LIFE in Christ, and DYING to ourselves.

Starting off our new series "Truth In Tension", pastor Bobby guides us through the different lenses we use when viewing Jesus and scripture, also while taking us through the series topic of Jesus doing or saying one thing, and then seemingly doing or saying the complete opposite.
