The Journey
The Journey course is a 12-week course which addresses issues of personal bondage that might hinder your growth as a believer in Jesus Christ. In John 8:31-32, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth and the truth will set you free.” This short course in freedom – freedom from habits, bondages, bitterness, wrong thoughts, and past mistakes – is a vital part of connection at The River Church. The Journey course and Encounter Retreats help you “hold to the truth” and build a foundation for a victorious Christian walk with God.
The Encounter Retreat
The focal point of the Journey course is a weekend Encounter Retreat. At the retreat you will hear teachings from the Bible and encounter the cross – which sets you free! The Encounter Retreat is really an encounter between you and God!
Who is the Journey course and Encounter Retreat for?
Christians new and old are encouraged to take the Journey course and go on an Encounter Retreat! Because men and women have unique issues and needs, men will have a special Encounter Retreat just for men, and likewise the women will attend a Women’s Encounter. Teens will also have opportunities to take the Journey.
Journey meets Sunday morning at 8:30 at the Paradise Center. You can jump in at any time!
