In this message, Pastor James explores the relationship between faith and works in James 2:14-26, addressing a question that has sparked debate for centuries. Using the story of Abraham and Isaac, he explains that good works do not earn salvation but reveal the reality of a genuine faith. Pastor James distinguishes between being declared righteous by God and growing in righteousness through a life of obedience, showing how faith becomes visible through action. He challenges listeners to move beyond a passive belief and live in a way that makes the character of Jesus tangible to the people around them.Subscribe 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—About Riverview ChurchRiverview Church is a multi-venue church based in Lansing, Michigan, where we invite everyone to know and enjoy Jesus as we stumble together in our pursuit to love like Him.

What does it really mean to have the mind of Christ? In this message, Pastor James walks through Philippians 2 to reveal how Jesus' journey—from heaven to the cross and back to glory—teaches us the true path to greatness: humility.ABOUT THIS SERMONIn this sermon, Pastor James takes us into Philippians 2 to explore what it means to have the mind of Christ. Through four key aspects—incarnation, humiliation, exaltation, and adoration—we see how Jesus chose the path of humility, setting aside His divine status to become a servant. This wasn't forced on Him; it was a choice. Pastor James reminds us that true humility is not just a reaction to our circumstances but a decision we make, just as Christ did. Drawing from Luke 14, he illustrates how Jesus taught us to take the lowest place and allow God to do the lifting. In a world driven by pride and self-promotion, we're challenged to consider how pride often masks our insecurities, and how we cannot rightly represent Christ without first understanding how He represented Himself. Ultimately, the message is clear: in God's Kingdom, the way up is always down. This is a timely and transformative teaching for anyone seeking to live more like Jesus.KEY VERSES Philippians 2:5-8 Luke 14:7-11 Deuteronomy 8:2 Isaiah 7:14

In "To Be the Man, You Gotta Know the Man", Pastor James delivers a powerful message to us on Father's Day as he begs the question: "Has society lost the definition of what a man is?" Pastor James hones in on Paul's message from 1 Corinthians 16:13-14 as he calls men to 5 core practices: Be alert, Stand Firm in the Fatih, Be Courageous, Love Sacrificially, and Follow Jesus Completely.  Everyone helping someone take steps to follow Christ.

What are you giving your life to—and will it still matter years from now? This week on The Breakdown Podcast, Matthew Rhoads sat down with Pastor James to break down the message "The Trophy Lied To You," rooted in John 13, John 13:34–35, and 1 John 4:10–11, 19. Their conversation explores the pursuit of success, recognition, and achievement, and why so many of the things people spend their lives chasing fail to deliver lasting significance. Looking at Jesus washing His disciples' feet, they discuss how love is more than an emotion—it is a decision to move toward people. They also unpack what it means to live for something that outlasts accomplishments, awards, and personal success. If you've ever wondered whether you're investing your life in what truly matters, this conversation will challenge you to rethink success and embrace the kind of love Jesus modeled.  The Breakdown | The Trophy Lied To You Everyone helping someone take steps to follow Christ.

How do God's commandments guide our relationships with both Him and others? In this video, Pastor James explores the powerful connection between the Ten Commandments and how the fifth commandment — honoring your parents — bridges our relationship with God and humanity. ABOUT THIS SERMONIn this sermon, Pastor James discusses the importance of God's commandments as direction and landmarks for living, particularly focusing on the Ten Commandments. He explains how the first four commandments deal with our relationship with God, while the last five deal with our relationship with humanity. The fifth commandment - honoring parents - serves as a bridge between these two sets, emphasizing how honor taught in the home connects our relationship with both God and others.KEY VERSES Matthew 5:19 1 John 5:3 Psalm 119:19 Ecclesiastes 12:13

Remember that trophy in that one box in the attic? What was it for? Do you remember?  In "The Trophy Lied To You," Pastor James encourages us to consider not giving our lives to things that someone will one day say, "What was this all about?" We want our lives to count, to ache for something more, and Jesus demonstrates in John 13 that love is the decision to move towards people, not merely an emotion.  Everyone helping someone take steps to follow Christ.

In this episode Bruce and I wrap up our study of 1 John. This podcast was an adventure to record because GarageBand decided to no longer want to be a part of the process. BUT we stuck it out and ended up finishing up 1 John 5 sitting in Bruce's truck talking into my laptop because of a fire drill in the building. I especially loved talking through the goodness of the law of God and how God's commands are not burdensome. - Pastor JamesWomen's Cookie Decorating SocialFri, June 19, 6pmhttps://subspla.sh/gw74xkxRCD Book ClubShadow of the Almighty: The Life and Testament of Jim ElliotMon, June 29, 7pm @ Leever's Locavorehttps://subspla.sh/gbb78w9

Where is the good part when life doesn't make sense?  This week on The Breakdown Podcast, Matthew Rhoads sat down with Pastor James to break down his message "Where Is the Good Part?" rooted in Genesis 50:15–25 and supported by passages including Romans 8:28, Psalm 27:13, and Philippians 1:6. Looking at the final chapter of Joseph's story, they talk about what it means to trust that God is good—even before the story feels good. Together, they unpack how God's goodness changes the way we view our past, present, and future. Joseph's life reminds us that pain, setbacks, and unanswered questions are not the end of the story. God is still working, still leading, and still accomplishing His purposes. If you've been struggling to see God's goodness in a difficult season, this conversation will encourage you to trust that He is at work—even when you can't yet see the good part.

Today's sermon is Personal Growth by James Chapman Find more teaching from Pastor James at www.calvarycsm.com

Sunday Evening Service - June 7, 2026 | Pastor James

This sermon addresses the struggle of feeling overlooked, hidden, and marginalized in a world obsessed with appearance and recognition. Using the story of David's anointing from 1 Samuel 16, Pastor James emphasizes that while we may feel invisible to people, we are always seen by God. The message challenges believers to find their worth not in external validation or cultural approval, but in God's love and purpose. The sermon explores how hidden seasons are not wasted time but formative periods where God develops character, courage, and faithfulness. It calls the congregation to resist the temptation to perform for human approval and instead be present with God, trusting that He is forming them for the specific purposes He has prepared. The core truth is that God sees the heart when people only see outward appearance, and being last in the world's lineup doesn't mean being least in God's kingdom.

Wednesday Evening Service - June 3, 2026 | Pastor James

Who are you allowing to title your story? This week on The Breakdown Podcast, Matthew Rhoads sat down with Pastor James to break down his message "Who Told You That Was Your Title?" rooted in Genesis 45:1–13 and 2 Corinthians 1:3–4. They talk about how Joseph could have defined himself by what happened to him—rejected, forgotten, or betrayed—but instead chose to see God's hand at work through the pain. Together, they unpack how past wounds, failures, and labels can shape the way we see ourselves, and why God's perspective is greater than the titles others place on us. What if the hardest chapters of your story are not your identity, but part of how God is preparing you to help others? If you've been carrying a label that God never gave you, this conversation will help you see your story through the lens of His faithfulness and purpose.

In this encouraging message, Pastor James reminds us that true fulfillment is found not in the temporary things of this world, but in pursuing a deeper relationship with God. Through Jesus' teaching in Luke 12, we are challenged to keep our spiritual lamps burning by staying connected to God through His Word, prayer, repentance, and community.As we open every area of our lives to Christ, we discover the peace, freedom, and strength He provides for every season. This message is a powerful call to live with eternal perspective, crave the things of God above worldly distractions, and remain faithful as we await His return.

Pastor James continues our series, Gather to Go, walking through the book of Acts. This week we looked at Acts 9:1-31  and saw that God makes His invisible grace visible by sending people of grace to give grace to people who need grace. Corey Taylor also shares his story.

God doesn't bless disorder—He blesses order. Before Jesus fed the 5,000, He told them to sit down. Miracles follow structure. Watch Pastor James explain why order in your life, your home, and your heart is the key to experiencing God's blessing.ABOUT THIS SERMONIn this eye-opening message, Pastor James teaches that God always establishes order before releasing blessing. Using the story of Jesus feeding the 5,000, he illustrates that even miracles require structure. God does not bless chaos—He blesses order that begins with personal discipline and extends to families, communities, and society.This sermon addresses how the breakdown of honor and respect in the home has led to wider dysfunction in culture. Pastor James challenges us to restore order by living with intention, teaching honor, and understanding that true success is measured by what we leave behind.If you're praying for breakthrough, it might start with bringing order to your life.
