The Resurrection and the Life

In the Gospel of John, there are seven 'I Am' statements that Jesus made. One being, "I Am the Bread of Life." Come and see how this statement falls into the entire story of God and how we get to play a part in it.  Come and See: The Gospel of John // John 6, 8 Drew Worsham, Pastor of Teaching & Vision www.therimchurch.com

The God Who Satisfies

Gazing vs Glancing: When you glance at something, you look at it briefly and then move on. You don't dwell on it. But when you gaze at something, you focus on it intensely and it changes you. Come and See: The Gospel of John // John 1:1-14 Drew Worsham, Pastor of Teaching & Vision www.therimchurch.com

Come and See the God Who is Near!

When we view God as our Father, it allows us to struggle as sons and daughters and receive discipline with delight Thrive: Enjoying the Fullness of God // Hebrews 12:3-13 Austin Johnson, Director of House Churches www.therimchurch.com

Discipline & Delight

We have to inherit the past to transform the future. Remembering the past helps us to live in the present and dream bigger for the future. To Thrive, we have to Remember! HAPPY 2nd BIRTHDAY TO THE RIM CHURCH!  Thrive: Enjoying the Fullness of God // Hebrews 10:23-25, 32 Drew Worsham, Pastor of Teaching & Vision www.therimchurch.com 

Remember

You cannot thrive without deep rest. We all long for rest but only hope that it will come with the next season. However, the promise of rest is not for tomorrow but for today. Thrive: Enjoying the Fullness of God // Hebrews 4:6-11 Drew Worsham, Pastor of Teaching & Vision www.therimchurch.com

Rest

If God is Father, that makes us sons & daughters while also "siblings" to one another. When this identity is understood, we are put into a position to thrive together as a family.  Thrive: Enjoying the Fullness of God // 2 Timothy 1:2 Drew Worsham, Pastor of Teaching & Vision www.therimchurch.com

Our Identity

In order to thrive, we must keep Jesus at the center of it all. Our prayer is to not allow things of the world to could our connection to Jesus. Thrive: Enjoying the Fullness of God // 1 Timothy 1-6, 1:15-19 Drew Worsham, Pastor of Teaching & Vision www.therimchurch.com

In order to thrive we should expect conflict as a result of our connection to Jesus. Thrive: Enjoying the Fullness of God // 1st and 2nd Thesselonians  LaShaude James, House Church Leader

Thriving Through the Conflict

How you see yourself in the story determines the part that you think you play. This view will determine how you experience the story and how you live it out. "God of Miracles" // The Gospel of Mark // Mark 15:1-15

See Yourself in the Story

What you do with your doubt determines your destination! Doubt will either cause discouragement that leads to Distance, or doubt will cause desperation that leads to depth. "God of Miracles" // The Gospel of Mark // Mark 9:14-29

Doubts, Demons, and Deliverance

It's faith that leads to touching the Miraculous. How could it be so simple?  "God of Miracles" // The Gospel of Mark // Mark 5:21-34

A Touch of Faith

Revealing the Kingdom of God is the purpose of the church, and prayer is the power that moves it. "When A Church Prays" // Colossians 

A Prayer that Changes the World

In Philippians 4, we see a prayer, a promise, and a practice. Prayer leads to the promise and the promise leads to the practice.  "When A Church Prays" // Philippians

A Praying Church is Not A Worried Church
