Jesus invites each of us to come close and follow Him.  Being a disciple of someone, means becoming a learner or a student of the one you are following. For us, we are disciples, or followers of Jesus.


The Art of Following Jesus, is a spiritual pathway, highlighting the words and ways of Jesus, that will deepen your understanding and practice of being a disciple of Jesus.  


We have divided this experience into four biblical values: LOVE, ENJOY, PLAY, and SHARE.  The Sunday sermons, audio clips, practical resources and study guides will help you further engage with some basic steps to take on this pathway with Jesus.  We invite each of you to join with us,  as we grow our trust in Jesus, and step into the most fulfilling journey of your life,  The Art of Following Jesus.

From encouraging messages to amazing kids programs, we have designed our services for people who have been long time church  attendees or have never been to church before. No matter where  you've been or what you've done - we invite you to experience The River, an intentionally casual church.


We have weekly Sunday services at Torrance Beach and "on the hill" at the Norris Pavilion.
