Teaching Series: Human Title: Session 11: I Long For So Much More By: Tim Chilvers Bible Passage: Genesis (Chapter 3, verses 6-13) Recorded: Sunday 18/04/2021 I Long For So Much More: The devastating power of fantasy is something that every movie producer and advertising executive swears by. The fantasy, the ideal, the thing we long for, particularly when our circumstances are far from what we’d hoped. It’s almost as we can’t escape the allure. But, maybe we’d do well to remember exactly what fantasies really are...Fantasy. And, maybe they point to a much deeper desire, a longing that has something really important to tell us.

Teaching Series: Human Title: Session 10: The Use And Abuse Of Power By: Tim Chilvers Bible Passage: Genesis (Chapter 3, verses 9-24) & Luke (Chapter 14, verses 7-11) Recorded: Sunday 11/04/2021 The Use And Abuse Of Power: We all have power, but we don’t realise it. Sadly, some of us have experienced the misuse of power in very damaging ways. How might we use and even abuse our power? And how do we handle power in our relationships?

And as we see how Jesus uses it we discover the upside-down way to use power for good. Welcome: What's true of Riverside Church when we meet together in-person is still true of us online.

Title: The Journey We All Take By: Tim Chilvers Bible Passage: Genesis (Chapter 3, verses 1 – 8) Recorded: Sunday 21/03/2021 For decades, we have moved away from the idea of ‘sin’.

Title: Sex Is Great But … By: Tim Chilvers Bible Passage: Genesis (Chapter 2, verses 23 - 25) Recorded: Sunday 7/3/2021 In a society that has elevated a gift from God to the status of a god, the biblical perspective on sex is breathtaking.
