Each year Riverchase honors the school teachers that spend time teaching our children. We hold our annual Molder of Dreams Banquet for all children in kindergarten through sixth grade.

This past Sunday morning invitations for the Molder of Dreams Banquet and an information letter were either placed in your family’s mailbox or given to your child during Bible class.

This banquet is to honor those who serve our children outside of the church building. Please use your invitation to invite your school teacher or coach who spends time teaching your child. Please let me know if you need another invitation or if you did not receive one.

We ask that parents ultimately make sure the teacher has received the invitation and RSVPs by Friday, February 22. To RSVP your teacher you or your child’s teacher may call the church office and speak with Donna, Diania, or Eric. You can also email me at eric@riverchasechurchtemp.ichthus.digital. The teachers are also allowed to RSVP for one guest as well.

During the banquet we will present a slideshow highlighting each teacher and their student. We ask that each parent send us 10 digital pictures of your child with his or her teacher. These photos can be both serious and funny. You are also welcome to send in pictures of the teacher in action (in the classroom, on a field trip etc.). These pictures should be emailed to eric@riverchasechurchtemp.ichthus.digital. Please also have these pictures sent by Friday, February 22.

Finally, parents must stay at the banquet to help serve food and clear tables. Please feel free to call the office if you have any questions or if this is your first Molder of Dreams Banquet.

Kidmin 101

This past Sunday night, I shared five core values that our Children’s Ministry is founded on. These values are what helps keep each event, activity, and class in line with our overall mission. The core values are: 1. Know: Our children will learn to know God and the...

Faith On a Shelf

I have this hat that my dad brought back to me from a business trip to Atlanta when I was 9 or 10 years old. You can see that I’ve worn it a lot. In fact, I wore it to just about everywhere I went during the summer when I was a kid. Church camps, grandparents’ house,...

“Jesus Loves Me”

After being led in this song by two of our young men Sunday night, I was reminded of a quotation from Karl Barth. On April 23, 1962, Karl Barth (the renown 20th Century Swiss-German, neo-orthodox theologian) spoke at Rockefeller Chapel on the campus of the University...

That’s Not a Candle

Several years ago, there was story shared about a woman from Connecticut whose power had gone out during a storm. She left her house to go to a local hardware store to purchase some flashlights, but the store was closed. She returned home and found what she thought...

The Post-Christian Problem

I attended the New Day Conference in Murfreesboro, Tennessee at the end of last week with a small group from Riverchase. It was a good conference and I left encouraged about the opportunities we have to fulfill the call of Christ to make disciples. On Friday evening,...

Josiah’s Reform

In the thirty-one years of his rule, King Josiah proved to be a faithful man of God and a great king of Judah. He served God from the beginning as a young king and grew into a greater understanding of God’s will and a determination to follow that will. He made a...

You Are What You Eat

You Are What You Eat You’ve heard the phrase, “You are what you eat.” Simply defined, it means that you should eat healthy if you want to be healthy. This phrase can trace its roots back to the early 1800’s. It came from the 1826 work The Physiology of Taste, in which...

It Is Well

Above the piano in our house is a large wood sign with the phrase, “it is well with my soul” on it. Kimberly and I purchased it during a season of our life together where we were not completely sure what the future had in store for our little family. Since then, the...

Do Over

  I messed up on recording my recent radio programs. The sound quality was so bad Mark could not run them on the air. So, I deleted them and recorded them again.   I sure wish I could do that in real life with all the other mistakes I make. Just delete them...

Don’t Believe Your Preacher

Everyone who goes on ahead and does not abide in the teaching of Christ, does not have God. Whoever abides in the teaching has both the Father and the Son. (2 John 1:9 ESV) Here is the test. The “teaching of Christ” is, of course, the very word of God. So, if your...
