Rise City Church Podcast Rise City Church

Burdens, responsibilities, relationships, work - we are all carrying a lot. And so often these burdens can make us feel overwhelmed with life. But we weren't meant to carry these things alone, in our own strength.In Jesus, we are empowered by the Holy Spirit. A power to make a way through life, an energy to sustain you, strength to be victorious, and the might to defeat sin and shame. We can have freedom and power to walk in the hope of Jesus. Join us through the end of Ephesians 1 as we learn to tap into the Spirit and form identity by His power.

In a world where religion can feel like a list of rules without room for grace, Ephesians reminds us of a profound truth: through our union with Christ, we're not just on a religious treadmill; we're embraced by the Trinity, through Jesus' love and mercy.
Join us as we dive into our series Identity with guest speaker Rick McKinley to experience the freedom of living in Christ and our true identity in unity with Him.

Since childhood, we've been bombarded by words, wounds, and weaknesses trying to define who we are. But the truth is, Jesus came to give us a new identity, through His blood. In Him, we find redemption, forgiveness, and a place in God's family.Listen in to this week's message, "Identity: Who I Am," as we explore our true identity  that comes from Jesus Christ and nothing else.

On Easter, we reflect on the truth that Jesus Christ died, was buried, and rose again from the dead. The resurrection is the foundation of our faith and the heart of the Gospel, offering salvation to everyone who believes.
Listen in to the Easter message to hear why building our faith on anything other than the Gospel will ultimately let you down.

At Rise City Church, we reflect a culture of generosity rooted in our faith in Jesus Christ. We recognize that all we have is a gift from God, and when we give, we are giving back to the One who has given us everything. Our giving of time, talents, and treasures is not driven by guilt or obligation but by a desire to glorify God and advance His kingdom on earth.
We joyfully invest in the growth of His kingdom by actively and intentionally raising up the next generation of believers because we firmly believe, 'Win the Kids, Win the Future.'
Join us for this week's sermon in our series, "We Are Rise," as Pastor Jason speaks into our core values of generosity and empowering the next generation.

In a time when it often feels like the local culture pushes us away from God's calling, it can be tempting to think that moving elsewhere is the solution. However, we are reminded that God placed us here in this particular place, for this particular time. Our mission is to bring heaven to Earth, not look for it elsewhere.
We want our city to see, through our actions, that we genuinely care about people. At Rise, we do that by welcoming people in our doors and creating a space for people to feel seen and loved.
Listen in to the latest message in our series "We Are Rise" as we explore the power of being radically hospitable...because We Love Our City!
