Riverside Church, Birmingham, Uk

TEACHING SERIES: Preparing the Way TITLE: What God asks of you BY: Nathanael Ballew DATE: Sunday 4 May 2025 Bible Passage: Matthew 23:23-24, Micah 6:8 Have you ever been so obsessed with the little details of a task, you’ve missed the big picture? Some call this “missing the forest for the trees”, and our relationship with God can be a lot like this. We can become so focused on external rule-following that we miss the deeper call to justice, love and faithfulness. True faith is not just about checking boxes but about a heart surrendered to God, seeking genuine change from the inside out. Welcome: What's true of Riverside Church when we meet together in-person is still true of us online. We are on a journey together to help people get to know Jesus and grow as his followers across Birmingham and beyond. Riverside is a church made up of people from a diversity of backgrounds and experiences all with one thing in common; our discovery of God and His amazing love. We hope you will feel at home among us and t
