Rise City Church

In this message, Pastor Bobby Harrell invites us to reflect on what kind of legacy we are leaving and how God calls His people to live as a source of life for future generations.

Drawing from Ezekiel’s vision of living water and Paul’s prayer in Ephesians, we’re reminded that God’s blessing was never meant to stop with us. When His love and strength flow through our lives, everything around us begins to flourish.

In this message, Pastor Bobby Harrell walks us through Ezekiel’s vision of living water and what it reveals about the way God brings life, growth, and renewal.

As the river flows, everything it touches begins to flourish. Along the way, we’re invited to reflect on what God is doing in our own lives and how He is shaping His Church to be a place of hope, healing, and restoration.

At the heart of this message is The Oasis Initiative—a step of faith for Rise City Church to make room for more people to encounter Jesus and experience life to the fullest, and to continue being an oasis in the middle of a dry world.

In this message, Youth Pastor Anthony Hall walks us through the Lord’s Prayer, showing us how Jesus taught His disciples to pray—and what that means for us today.

Rather than presenting prayer as something we need to master, this message reminds us that prayer is an invitation. It’s not about having everything figured out or saying the right words, but about the posture of our hearts and our willingness to come honestly before God.

As we look at how Jesus prayed, we’re invited to approach prayer and communion with God with humility, trust, and authenticity—meeting Him right where we are.

In this message, Pastor Jeremy talks honestly about prayer—not as something we have to be good at, but as something we’re invited into.

Through Scripture and real-life moments we can all relate to, we’re reminded that prayer isn’t about having the right words or staying perfectly focused. It’s about showing up as we are—distractions, doubts, and all—and meeting a God who already knows us and still wants to be close.

As our church continues into a new season together, this message invites us to release the pressure, stop performing, and rediscover prayer as a place of real connection with God—right where we are.

In this message, Pastor Bobby unpacks the biblical discipline of fasting—not as a religious obligation, but as a relational practice that deepens humility, dependence, and attentiveness to God.

Rooted in Jesus’ words and echoed throughout Scripture, this teaching reframes fasting as a response to longing for Christ and His Kingdom. We’re reminded that we do not live by bread alone—and that true fasting doesn’t stop with us, but overflows into generosity, mercy, and love for others.

As we begin a new year together, this message invites our church into a renewed rhythm of prayer and fasting, trusting God to do something meaningful in and through us.

Before the world ever encountered Jesus, God sent a messenger to prepare the way. In the opening of Mark’s Gospel, we’re introduced not to the Savior first—but to John the Baptist, a man shaped by purpose, humility, and the power of the Holy Spirit.

In this message, Pastor Bobby reminds us that for many people, their first impression of Jesus comes through the lives of those who follow Him. The way we live, speak, and love has the power to either point others toward Christ or distract from who He is.

Joy is something we all want—but many of us tie it to seasons, circumstances, or how life is going in the moment. In this message, Pastor Bobby reminds us that real joy runs deeper than happiness and isn’t dependent on what’s happening around us.

Through Scripture and honest stories, we’re invited to see that joy is found in one place: the presence of God. Even in difficult seasons, busy moments, or quiet struggles, His presence brings a joy that lasts.

This message is an invitation to slow down, refocus, and rediscover the joy that comes from walking closely with Him.

In this week’s message, Pastor Bobby unpacks what it means to live fully on mission for God — without getting pulled off course. Through Luke 9:57–62 and the story of Nehemiah, we see how the enemy uses mockery, distraction, and accusation to derail God’s people, and how prayer, discernment, and steadfast obedience keep us aligned with God’s purpose.

If you’ve felt worn down, divided, or tempted to quit, this message will remind you:

God strengthens those who stay the course. His plan will prevail.

A single man returned to Jesus after being healed—and his response reveals something deeper than gratitude. This week, we explore how thankfulness exposes the condition of our hearts and draws us closer to God.

True gratitude isn’t just polite—it’s spiritual. It’s what turns blessing into worship and keeps our faith alive.

If you’ve been going through life without stopping to acknowledge the Giver, this message will reset your heart toward Jesus.

Real transformation doesn’t come from trying harder—it comes from the Holy Spirit working within us. This week, Pastor Bobby unpacks how staying rooted in Christ produces the fruit of the Spirit and shapes who we’re becoming from the inside out.

If you’ve been striving for change, this message reminds you: the Spirit is already doing the work.
