RITH Weekly Sermon

River In The Hills Church, a congregation in Lakeway, Texas, releases its preaching as RITH Weekly Sermon, and the recordings keep the room audible. It sounds like church, not a studio. Glenn Hubbart asks who still needs the printed notes, thanks Joanne, spots two Norms in the congregation, and credits Ashton, who turns out to be in the room after all, with a word about protecting the children. Some sermons end with a closing song and an invitation to the altar or the prayer team, and those moments stay on the recording. Glenn Hubbart is credited on several recent sermons, and Kyle Hubbart and Frederick Roback take the pulpit as well. Scripture drives every message. Kyle Hubbart has the room turn to John 20 and reads it through, then stays with why Jesus appeared first to Mary Magdalene, a woman once possessed by seven demons, at a time when a woman's testimony carried little or no weight in court. He sets that choice against a familiar discipleship instinct: win the most popular kid in high school and the rest will follow. Glenn Hubbart's messages range widely. One treats generational blessing as a handoff, drawing on Malachi and Isaiah 9 and applying the idea to a church, a family, a business and a football team. Another, 'Vision Series 2026 – Part 9 Upreach, Inreach, Outreach', starts with the story of a man who once came in and threatened him, told as a reminder that food-pantry ministry is not idyllic, then describes the life of faith as upflow, inflow and outflow around the river of Revelation 22. A third turns a picture he saw during worship, a tug-of-war team in green pulling someone out of a ditch, into the Galatians 6 call to bear one another's burdens. The Passover sermon steps into current events. There, Glenn Hubbart says standing for Israel does not mean backing its government, a Knesset policy or everything the IDF does, asks for prayer for all people in the Middle East, and signs off with Pesach greetings and 'next year in Jerusalem.' Frederick Roback frames preaching as equipping. He argues that faith comes from choosing to believe, not from works, and suggests praying to hear the Spirit already given instead of pleading for more. The tone leaves room for asides, from a quip about staying in one's lane to Kyle Hubbart admitting he is not sure how to close before handing off to his dad. The Holy Spirit comes up constantly, the devil is treated as a real opponent, and healing and deliverance are part of the vocabulary. Titles such as 'Fellowshipping With The Father And The Son -- Part 4' mark sermons that pick up where earlier ones left off. Titles without a part number, such as 'Mary Magdalene: The First Witness', are the simpler place to begin.
