Dear RiverTown Family,

Have you ever wanted to be rich?  What if you found our that you already were?  This Sunday kicks-off a brand new message series called BE RICH.   It’s not about pursuing wealth.  The Bible teaches us in 1 Timothy 6:17-19 to be rich in what matters most so that we can give more and do more with the life God has given us.

This series of messages and even a book on the topic originally comes from Pastor Andy Stanley and North Point Community Church in Atlanta.  But is has also been adapted and used by Pastor Craig Groschel of LifeChurch.tv as well as many other pastors and churches worldwide.  Pastor Buddy Lamb, my mentor and friend, has seen God use these messages at Schomburg Rd. Baptist Church to powerfully change their member’s perspective on money and the way they live their lives.

This Sunday Pastor Buddy Lamb will be with us at RiverTown to help us get this new message series started off right.  Pastor Buddy will share with us about the power of the understanding how rich you already are in his message titled:  “I AM RICH!”

Last week’s valentines message to men, When A Man Loves A Woman, has been requested again and again.  You can find it here in audio podcast version on our weekly sermon podcast: http://rivertownchurch.buzzsprout.com

Or, check out the full video of this message with all the baby dedications too on my YouTube Channel: www.youtube.com/davidrathelchannel

Our HomeTeams are really going strong this semester.  There’re is still room for you!  www.rivertownchurch.com/home-teams 

I will be there on Sunday front-and-center anxiously listening to Pastor Buddy’s message and ready to apply the principles of BE RICH to my life and family!

All For Jesus,

Pastor David Rathel.
