Seeing the Lost
Seeing People
Seeing Lives
Revival is more than a moment — it’s a way of life. At The River Church NWA, we believe revival is about transformed hearts, restored lives, and a daily pursuit of God’s presence. It’s where people encounter Jesus in a real and powerful way, grow in spiritual maturity, and discover their God-given purpose. Our vision is to see believers carry His anointing into everyday life, impacting families, workplaces, communities and souls for eternity. Together, we’re building a diverse family that loves God, loves people, and boldly makes Him known.
Each week we stream our services live with a message of encouragement and empowerment through the word of God!
