Where we stand.

We have a “big tent” theology — room for questions, doubt, and honest wrestling. And we also have clear convictions.

 

Here are four you should know up front:

​

We’re Egalitarian

Leadership and participation are open to everyone, regardless of gender or gender identity. That’s been true since day one — Riverfront was founded by a woman pastor — and it’s not up for debate.

We’re Anti-Racist

We believe the Gospel calls us to more than personal salvation. It calls us into the work of justice — actively, not passively. Dismantling racism is sacred work, and we’re in it.

We’re Fully Affirming

LGBTQ+ people are fully welcome, fully affirmed, and fully celebrated here. Not tolerated. Celebrated. This isn’t a side issue for us — it’s a conviction rooted in Scripture and the character of Jesus.

We’re Resisting Christian Nationalism

LGBTQ+ people are fully welcome, fully affirmed, and fully celebrated here. Not tolerated. Celebrated. This isn’t a side issue for us — it’s a conviction rooted in Scripture and the character of Jesus.
