RiverStone Christian Church

RiverStone Christian Church We help people live better lives by building a foundation of hope in Jesus Christ. Come check us out! Sundays at 10:45am! No one loves you more than He does.

We believe in the truth and transformational power of the Gospel message.

- Everyone has lived enough life to know it can be hard… and no matter what you did, or what was done to you, we believe you can reconnect to God through Jesus. We invite you to come and see how a life with Jesus is better. We don’t have it all figured out, but if you simply follow Jesus, and adjust your life to His teachi

ngs, He will lead you on an exciting spiritual journey. We believe in loving people the way God loves people.

- It’s not our job to “fix” you… we have created environments to help you experience the love of God. You don’t need to clean up your life to come to RiverStone. Our heart is that you can come to RiverStone and leave with a sense of belonging, knowing you are loved! We believe in journeying with other people, helping them grow in Christ so that they can help others do the same thing.

- Starting a new journey can be scary and confusing if you do not know where you are going. What’s worse is feeling as though you have to take this journey alone. We are here to help you grow in Christ by journeying alongside you. There is not a better opportunity for growth than our High Def. Groups. HD Groups meet in the homes of our leaders to discuss life, encourage one another, and take a deeper look at Sunday’s message. HD Groups will help provide clarity and resolution for times of uncertainty and doubt. In the HD Groups you will find people who have “been there and done that” or people who are currently going through a similar season of life as you. We are sure you will develop friendships that will change your life. We believe the goal of our existence is to reflect God in every aspect of our being.

- We want to live a life of purpose. As we reflect Christ to our community, we know we are finding the purpose He created us for. The RiverStone community loves, forgives, and hopes for others by living with purpose. We believe in serving and blessing people by living out our faith with purpose and relevance. We believe in blessing the people of Ogle County by living out our mission through acts of service.

- We work with community leaders in order to make Ogle County better by volunteering at community events and celebrations. We are part of God’s plan to give hope to the world and therefore, we are sent to bless and serve Ogle County.

No Other Gods Daily Devotion
Day 2: Jesus' Command to Love

Scripture: Matthew 22:37-39
"Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment."

Jesus summarized the law by calling us to love God fully and love our neighbors. This passage emphasizes that true obedience starts with love for God, which naturally extends to others. Reflect on how this dual-command shapes your daily interactions and decisions. Loving God requires our all, and from that fullness, we can genuinely love those around us.

Prayer: Jesus, teach me to love You deeply so that I can love others sincerely. Let my life reflect Your love. Amen.

Reflect: How can you show love to God in your daily routines?

No Other Gods Daily Devotion
Day 1: Building on the Right Foundation

Scripture: Exodus 20:3
"You shall have no other gods before me."

The first commandment serves as the foundation for our relationship with God. It calls us to an exclusive allegiance, reminding us that God alone is worthy of our worship and trust. In a world filled with distractions and competing priorities, this commandment challenges us to examine who or what holds the throne of our hearts. As we begin this week, let's consider how we can ensure that God remains our first love and ultimate priority, setting a strong foundation for our lives.

Prayer: Lord, help me to place You above all else in my life. Reveal any idols that may have taken Your place in my heart. Amen.

Reflect: What are some things that compete for God's place in your heart?

Day 5: Living and Sharing the Mission

Scripture: 2 Corinthians 5:20
"Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us."

As ambassadors for Christ, our mission field extends from our local community to the ends of the earth. Every believer is called to live out the gospel, sharing it with others in word and deed. The Antioch model teaches us that mission is not just a task but a lifestyle. How can we embody this ambassador role in our everyday interactions?

Prayer: Empower me, Lord, to be Your ambassador, reflecting Your love and truth in all areas of my life. Amen.

Reflect: How can you intentionally share the gospel in your community this week?

Day 4: Balancing Urgency and Patience

Scripture: Luke 10:1-2
"After this the Lord appointed seventy-two others and sent them on ahead of him, two by two, into every town and place where he himself was about to go."

Jesus demonstrated both urgency and patience in His mission approach. He sent out disciples swiftly, yet invested time in teaching and prayer. We are called to balance this tension, acting with urgency to share the gospel, while being patient in God’s timing and ways. How can we cultivate this balance in our mission efforts?

Prayer: Lord, give me the wisdom to act with urgency and the patience to trust in Your perfect timing. Amen.

Reflect: Are there areas where you need to trust God’s timing more fully?

This Sunday at RiverStone, we begin our new Ten Commandments series! God invites us into a relationship where He alone is first — not to restrict us, but to free us.

“You shall have no other gods before Me.” — Exodus 20:3

Come discover how putting God first brings clarity, peace, and blessing. Join us this Sunday at 10:45 AM.

Mission Possible Daily Devotion
Day 3: Nourishing through Worship and Prayer

Scripture: Colossians 4:2-3
"Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving. At the same time, pray also for us, that God may open to us a door for the word."

The early church’s model of worship, prayer, and fasting provided nourishment for spiritual discernment. When we cultivate these practices, we align ourselves with God’s will and prepare our hearts for His mission. Prayer becomes a powerful tool for opening doors and fostering mission fruitfulness. Are we committed to steadfast prayer in our personal and church life?

Prayer: Guide my heart, Lord, to prioritize prayer and worship. May these practices open doors for Your word. Amen.

Reflect: What changes can you make to deepen your prayer life this week?

Psalm 95:2

Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise!

When everything else seems impossible... but God! What a testimony! We will continue to honor God and give Him thanks! Praise God, Mary C Jorgenson!

When all hope seems lost, don't give up! Just a couple years ago as I (Craig) was planning to head to Tenerife for a mission trip, Mary was knocking on death's door. Now, she sings His praises!
