Here at Living Waters Rogue Valley, we answer the question, “What do YOU look like fully alive in Jesus?” We have a mission to break people free from religious bondage and invite them into who the Father intended them to be when He created them—that they could carry and exhibit a life fully reconciled to God through Christ.
Week 03 - Confess Your Sins - The Community Practice - Ryan Rhoden
What if telling the truth about our lives is part of how we experience deeper community?
As we continue the Community Practice, we’re learning to bring what’s hidden into safe, trusted relationships where we can receive grace and pray for one another. Confession doesn’t mean oversharing with strangers. It means learning to tell the truth with people we trust.
Drawing from James 5:16, we’re examining the story shame tells us, the habits and attachments beneath our behavior, and what’s happening in our hearts as we learn to follow Jesus together.
This week’s practice is to find a trusted person and confess your sin. Ask the Holy Spirit what He wants to bring into the light, then make time to talk and pray with someone you trust. Begin with what He brings to your attention; you do not need to disclose everything at once. As we receive someone else’s confession, we can listen with compassion rather than shame or a rush to fix.

Week 02 - Share Your Joys and Sorrows - The Community Practice - Ryan Rhoden
What helps an ordinary meal become a place of deeper friendship? Ryan Rhoden continues the Community Practice with an invitation to share our joys and sorrows around the table.
Drawing from Jesus' shared meal with His disciples and His vulnerability in Gethsemane, Ryan explores the importance of celebrating together, telling the truth about our lives, and allowing trusted friends to help carry our burdens. He also shares the simple meal rhythm that has helped his family experience connection and care.
This week, gather for a meal, put your phones away, and share a high and a low. Consider bringing a deeper struggle to a trusted friend who can listen and pray with you.

Week 01 - Be Family Around a Table - The Community Practice
Coming to church on Sunday matters, but we can attend and still not be known. In this teaching on the Community Practice, we explore Jesus’ invitation into a new kind of family, one where people share life, carry burdens, and help one another grow. We look at four circles of community, from close friendships and kin to our wider church family, and why following Jesus is not something we do alone.
The practice begins around a table. Share a meal with someone this month: invite them over or accept an invitation, put your phones down, and enjoy being together. No strings attached and no pressure to become best friends. Just a small step toward life with Jesus and one another. If you can, make room for a second meal this month too.
