Pastor PerspectivesIn these videos our pastors share a little about their lives, what they do at the River, what the River is trying to accomplish in the lives of our members, and what God is doing in our city and the world today.
HOW WE STARTEDIn 2004, a group of 10 people moved to New York with an exciting vision — build a culturally-relevant, Jesus-centered church in Lower Manhattan and help people in NYC experience a life-giving connection to God. And so, the River was born.
