Today's message has been presented by Pastor Darrell Bierman.
Welcome to River City Church Online. Thank you for joining us today as we continuing our series called Crafting a Culture of Healing & Hope in the Church.
Today's message has been presented by Pastor Darrell Bierman.
A healthy church is one where every person is seen, heard, and valued.
A healthy church has carefully crafted a culture of goodness, dignity, and respect.
However, both history and our current headlines reveal a church that can be a deeply flawed, sinful, and unhealthy institution, marred by acts of injustice, corruption, abuse, misogyny, and oppression. Indeed, far from having “goodness cultures” too many churches today have “toxic” cultures!
So, is this vision of a healthy church even possible or is this vision idealistic and unattainable this side of heaven?
Here at River City Church, we believe that a healthy church is possible, but creating one will takes all of us working together deliberately following a map.
This new series will give us the map and will both equip and challenge us to turn this this dream into a reality.
Some RCC listeners have been part of a toxic church. If you have, it may have affected (or may be affecting) your view of God.
What’s more:
By being able to identify toxic churches we can/will becomes part of the ‘solution’ (to keep RCC from becoming a toxic church).
Romans 13:10 Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

Café will be open right after the service.
