In Transform Your World all seven churches under the Rivertree movement are sharing the same unified vision based on Acts 1:1-14.

He then goes on to share the four key attributes of a true Christ follower for this to be accomplished.
In the final Proof of God's existence, Pastor Brian Grow examines the seventh and greatest of them, the Gestalt argument. This states that the whole, all six previous arguments, are greater as a whole than its parts, each proof by itself. Together the existence of God is undeniable. He then circles back to how to argue these things in gentleness and respect so as to better defend our faith and please the Lord to win people for Christ.
In proof week six, Pastor Jon Tisevich argues for the existence of God by the basis of testimony. As all of history is based on testimony whether written or spoken, the testimony of billions of people throughtout the world would have to be dismissed if God were not real. As there are hundreds of eye wittnesses who were willing to die for the belief that Jesus was raised from the dead ir reasons it must be true.
In Proof Week 5, Pastor Brian presents the argument of divine belief. People groups throughout all time and culture have had an innate sense of reaching for God. If God did not exist, this would be impossible. He then looks at examples of comman religous and historical stories that are shared by groups on every continent like the global flood. The emergence of these common stories cannot be by chance.
In Proof Week 4, Pastor Brian presents the argument for God based on biblical prophecy. As there are hundreds of clear and specfic biblical prophecies written centuries before they happen, it suggests a divine giver of that knowledge. He also addresses the two most common objections: prophetic metaphor and that they were written after the events took place.
In Proof Week 3 Pastor Brian will reason that God gave moral laws, also called objective truth, that all cultures throughout time have followed. The argument then follows that if God does not exist, than neither does objective moral value. However, as objective moral values do exist, then God must exist.
We are continuing our series: Proof. Pastor Brian Grow is presenting the teleological argument, also called the argument of design. The message focuses on the complexity found in biological life and creation, suggesting [demanding] a designer. The probability of all of this happening by chance does not suggest the likelihood or affirmation of evolution.
