The River Church
About Us
History
Coshocton Shall Be Saved
The mission of The River Church is to provide a place in our community where people can experience the Presence and Power of God. Paul said in 1 Cor 2:4 that his preaching was not with enticing words, but a demonstration of the Spirit and Power, that their faith would not rest in the wisdom of man but in the Power of God. Our services do not only have powerful Preaching and Teaching,
but also a demonstration of the Spirit and Power! The River is a place for those who are looking for a place where the Holy Spirit is free to move. We believe what happens in our ministry should overflow into the streets of Coshocton. As of 2022, we have been able to pray with over 6500 people in Coshocton County.
Community
“Do not forsake the gathering of yourselves together”
We believe in the importance of community and relationship. In the Book of Acts the Believer’s would meet and fellowship often. We encourage the growth and cultivation of friendships that will last a lifetime. Young and old, we have a place for everyone who’s heart is passionate for Jesus and empower people to do what God has called them to do. This is a place for those who are on Fire for Jesus who wish to meet like-minded believers!
The Word
“Is not My Word like a hammer”
The Bible says that God is watchful over His Word to perform it. At The River Church we preach the word almost every day of the week. Sermons are prepared under much prayer and study of the Bible. We believe that God still speaks today and has something He wants to say everytime we gather together. The River is where you can always expect to find Spirit filled and inspired preaching and teaching of the Word of God.
Worship
In Spirit and in Truth.
Worship at The River is dynamic and Spirit led. While attending you will learn the importance of worship and the joy that comes with worshiping the Father in Spirit and in Truth. We believe that praise and worship is a part of our calling as Believer’s. In our services you can always expect an atmosphere of praise and reverence. God inhabits the praises of His people, when you are a worshipper you will carry God’s presence!
The Spirit
“They were all filled with the Holy Spirit…”
Our motto is: “All Word and you dry up, all Spirit and you blow up, but when the two come together you grow up!” The Spirit gives life to the Word. We believe that God will always confirm His Word with signs following. We are a Book of Acts Church. We give the Holy Spirit preeminence in our services and believe that God is still moving in the Earth today with miracles, signs and wonders. We welcome the Presence and Power of God in our Church!
