| 4/27/26 | Wisdom with Wealth - Tony Pyle | In this message, the speaker explores the intersection of faith and finance, seeking biblical wisdom on how to manage wealth in a culture saturated with information but often lacking direction. Drawing from the book of Proverbs, the sermon emphasizes that true wisdom is not just accumulated knowledge, but knowledge applied, which begins with a proper "fear of the Lord"—a posture of reverence, awe, and worship.Subscribe to AfterWords on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.Download a copy of the Exodus JournalVisit us online: rivchurch.comFollow us on InstagramSend us feedback: podcast@rivchurch.comSubscribe to AfterWords on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.Visit us online: rivchurch.comFollow us on InstagramSend us feedback: podcast@rivchurch.com | 35m 50s | ||||||
| 4/27/26 | Fear that Cures Financial Foolishness - Justin Detmers | In this message, Pastor Justin dives into the deep-seated fears and spiritual underpinnings of our relationship with money. He uses the cautionary tale of the film The Ballad of a Small Player to contrast a life of "folly" with a life of "wisdom".Justin argues that a "mediocre message on money" usually boils down to "debt is dumb, giving is good," but fails to transform the heart. Instead, he points to Proverbs 1:7, explaining that the "Fear of the Lord" (Yirah) is the beginning of true knowledge. This isn't a dread of punishment, but a posture of awe, respect, and alignment with a God who is real, weighty, and worth obeying.Subscribe to AfterWords on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.Download a copy of the Exodus JournalVisit us online: rivchurch.comFollow us on InstagramSend us feedback: podcast@rivchurch.comSubscribe to AfterWords on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.Visit us online: rivchurch.comFollow us on InstagramSend us feedback: podcast@rivchurch.com | 36m 57s | ||||||

| 4/20/26 | Contentment in a Culture of More - Tony Pyle | In this message, Tony tackles the elusive concept of contentment within a "culture of more," defining it not merely as satisfaction with one's current state, but as being "intact or whole" through a relationship with Jesus. Drawing primarily from 1 Timothy 6 and Philippians 4, the sermon explores how the "love of money" functions as a powerful rival to God, potentially leading believers to "wander away from the faith" and "pierce themselves with many griefs."

| 4/20/26 | Contentment is Greater Than More - Hezekiah Trevino | In this message, Hezekiah challenges the common misunderstanding of Philippians 4:13, explaining that true strength in Christ is not about achieving personal goals, but about finding contentment regardless of external circumstances. By examining Paul’s letters from prison, the sermon clarifies that contentment is a learned discipline that isn’t tied to having either a lot or a little.

| 2/23/26 | Beyond Comfort - Hezekiah Trevino | In this message, Hezekiah uses the courageous example of Civil Rights activist Diane Nash and the Freedom Riders to illustrate the true cost of commitment. Drawing from Acts 21, he explains how the Apostle Paul prioritized the progress of his message over his own physical safety and personal preferences.

| 2/23/26 | A Holy Vow - James Granger | In this message, James explores the ancient Nazarite vow and how it relates to Paul’s decision to walk directly into the danger and "chains" awaiting him in Jerusalem. Using the context of the Lenten season, James highlights that a commitment to personal growth and faith often requires stepping out of our comfort zones rather than avoiding difficult circumstances. He emphasizes that while practices like fasting or solitude are voluntary tools for preparation, true transformation comes from a daily mindset shift toward serving others regardless of the cost.Subscribe to AfterWords on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.Download a copy of the Exodus JournalVisit us online: rivchurch.comFollow us on InstagramSend us feedback: podcast@rivchurch.comSubscribe to AfterWords on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.Visit us online: rivchurch.comFollow us on InstagramSend us feedback: podcast@rivchurch.com | 33m 06s | ||||||
| 2/23/26 | The Secret of Joy - Jordan Allen | In this message, Jordan explores the tension between divine guidance and personal sacrifice through the lens of Acts 21. While the Holy Spirit warned Paul that "chains and afflictions" awaited him in Jerusalem, his fellow believers interpreted this danger as a sign to stay away, whereas Paul saw it as a call to faithful endurance. By interweaving a vulnerable personal story about the emotional toll of making a difficult but necessary decision, the speaker illustrates that following God’s will does not guarantee an easy life or the approval of others.Subscribe to AfterWords on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.Download a copy of the Exodus JournalVisit us online: rivchurch.comFollow us on InstagramSend us feedback: podcast@rivchurch.comSubscribe to AfterWords on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.Visit us online: rivchurch.comFollow us on InstagramSend us feedback: podcast@rivchurch.com | 38m 36s | ||||||
| 2/23/26 | A Misunderstood Missionary - Justin Detmers | In this message, Justin explores the high-stakes narrative of Acts 21, where the Apostle Paul’s message of freedom in Christ is dangerously twisted by religious traditionalists. Drawing a parallel to the classic "one in a million" misunderstanding from Dumb and Dumber, Justin highlights how rumors and "gospel math" can turn grace into a perceived cultural betrayal. He challenges listeners to examine their own beliefs, emphasizing that salvation is found in Jesus plus nothing else.Subscribe to AfterWords on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.Download a copy of the Exodus JournalVisit us online: rivchurch.comFollow us on InstagramSend us feedback: podcast@rivchurch.comSubscribe to AfterWords on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.Visit us online: rivchurch.comFollow us on InstagramSend us feedback: podcast@rivchurch.com | 38m 56s | ||||||
