Two Rivers Church - New Bern

In this episode of The Abide Framework, we explore what it means to "Love the Lost" through the lens of Acts 17. As Paul engages a spiritually hungry yet deeply confused culture in Athens, we see a powerful model for how to share the gospel with both truth and compassion. Evangelism isn't about winning arguments—it's about abiding in Christ so deeply that His love compels us to reach others with humility, clarity, and grace.

Join us as we unpack how to engage the world around us with a heart that reflects God's love for every seeker, skeptic, and wanderer.

We’re kicking off a brand-new series called The Abide Framework, where we’re expanding our mission to love the lost, love the found, and—at the center of it all—abide in Jesus. In this week’s message from John 15, we take a deep look at what it means to remain connected to Jesus as our true source of life and purpose. When we stay close to Him, everything else flows—our love, our mission, our impact. This message sets the foundation for where we’re going as a church and how we’re called to live as His people.

In this last sermon of our Finish Fearless series, we’re looking at 2 Corinthians 9 and what it really means to be generous—even when it feels risky. God invites us to give freely, not out of pressure, but out of trust that He’ll provide everything we need. It’s not just about money—it’s about faith, freedom, and finishing well. If you’ve ever struggled with holding back, this message is for you.

What would change if you saw everything you have as God’s? This week, we’re diving into the Parable of the Bags of Gold in Matthew 25 and talking about how to handle money and resources with faith, wisdom, and courage.

Finish Fearless is a sermon series all about living open-handed and generous, especially when it comes to how we handle money and trust God with our resources. We’re diving into Matthew 6 where Jesus reminds us that “where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” This isn’t just about giving — it’s about where we’ve placed our trust and what we truly value. As we wrap up our Fearless giving campaign, this series challenges us to finish strong, stay faithful, and live with a bold, fearless kind of generosity.

In this episode of The Vow, we’re talking about purity. Not just saving sex for marriage, but living with honesty and integrity in every part of our lives. The truth is, what we keep hidden can end up destroying the intimacy we really want. Whether you're single or married, this message is a real look at how purity sets us up for deeper connection with our spouses and real freedom in living the way Jesus wants us to live.

In this series called The Vow, we’re digging into Ephesians 5:21–30 to talk honestly about what it means to love selflessly in marriage. It isn't easy, but it's worth the work. Whether you’re married, engaged, or just thinking about the future, this series is a real and practical guide to building a stronger, more Christ-centered marriage.

This week in our series The Vow, we're talking about pursuing our spouses which is something every strong marriage needs. It’s all about choosing to keep chasing after your spouse, not just in the early days, but for a lifetime. In this message, we’ll look at how to pursue each other with love, intention, and consistency just like Jesus pursues us. Whether you're married, dating, or just dreaming about the future, this one’s for you.

In this message from Genesis 2, we take a look at the foundation of marriage as God designed it. It’s all about getting our priorities straight—putting God first and our spouse second. When we align our hearts this way, everything else starts to make sense. Whether you're married, preparing for marriage, or just curious, this is a reminder of what really matters.

This Easter Sunday, we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus and the hope it brings. Join us as we conclude our sermon series through the Book of Mark, reflecting on the power of the empty tomb and the life-changing truth of the Gospel. Whether you're joining in for the first time or have been going through The Cost of Discipleship with us, this message is a powerful reminder that death has been defeated, Jesus is alive and there is hope for you today because of it!
