The River

Relational healing for the next generation

Confusion. Self-doubt. Hurt and pain. Eating disorders. Failed relationships. Promiscuity and same-sex attraction. Pornography. Today's youth are confronted with deep issues, which keep them from knowing God's love and power to change lives.


Yet simple answers are not enough. Young people want more. That's where The River comes in.

The River is an interactive program that tackles the root issues of brokenness, and unleashes the love and freedom only God can give. The River boldly addresses questions that today's youth are asking, and provides a safe place to hear and discuss His way for relationships and sexuality.


Who's it for?

Geared for the late-teen generation, The River focuses on those between 16 and 20 years old. The program embraces youth who want answers to their tough questions.

What’s involved?

Using creative and interactive methods, The River's 20 teachings grapple with tough topics, such as:

  • What happened with my soul?
  • What are my needs?
  • What's the big deal about sex?
  • How can I forgive those who've abused me?

As an intense, Jesus-centred group, The River allows youth to get rid of their baggage and be free, grow in a safe and caring place, and be real about their life--the good, the bad, the past, the present.
