This is the coolest building , the vibe , the LOVE that went into it! WOW Praise God ,Praying the Lord continues to bless RIVERS CHURCH , all who attend and every heart involved in the making of, you can FEEL the love of the Lord on the faces , I am in AWE! !
Wonderful place for God and for His people to meet for worship and fellowship with one another..I recommend Rivers Church for everyone around Johannesburg... SHALOM!
I'm watching building tour videos for inspiration for a work project. This video is done REALLY well. The talent is excited, the tone is upbeat and it's fun. There are a lot of terrible building tours out there, so props to the producer!
I think this is wonderful. Church should be a place of refreshment. A place where one should feel comfortable. It should be a place where people should feel like lingering for a while. It is conducive towards the forging of close friendships and connections between people. For those who think this is a bit too much, there is also the choice of a smaller, more modest church setting. Either way, the church is not contained w/in a building, it is inside of us. The Holy Spirit !
This Church does not have to be ashamed of anything. King Solomon built a sanctuary greater than this so the House of God should be done with excellence. Well done Rivers Church! Even the church's community projects is outstanding. I am so inspired!
People are so negative... look at what GOD can do, it’s not about how fancy the place look, it’s how God blessed this church. But nevertheless, I listen to Pastor Andre on Podcast, before seeing how Rivers look. I was drawn to Rivers, not because it looks how it look, but the word given by God to Pastor Andre. Be blessed Rivers and I pray one day when I end up in Sandton, I’ll pop in and experience this. Have a blessed day
N/A I sometimes visit here. Is it a cult? I don’t believe so. The sermons are really not bad, although slanted slightly towards prosperity. My thoughts has always gone back to the 7 different types of churches in the book of revelation..., all six of them were imperfect in one way of another. Some rich, some poor. God will separate the truth from the false on the judgement day....
The percher: Hi yes this is our church! Me: This is a mall Percher: No no it’s a church Me: Ummm I think not, a church is a place to worship not a mall with shops plus a food court!
Hey Brenna...Trust you are well. You should check out Rivers Church...Its an amazing place...I had the awesome privilege to serve at Rivers and impact lives and meet Ps Andre. Ps Andre loves impacting lives.You should make a turn there and buy some COFFEE lol....really good coffee I must say...o and the food is really good...
Brenna Markham: Some may think that. But I think church should be a place where people feel comfortable. A place where they will linger for a bit. This will facilitate the forging of relationships and connections. Although I can see where you are coming from. I don't think the comparison should be made with Jesus driving the money changers out of the temple.
Christ said not to make the Father’s house a market, and that’s what you essentially completed. Christ turned the tables and got angry at what the Pharisees did when they sold things/animals at the church; His temple. 🙏🏽✝️🙏🏽
What does the Bible say about Heaven? What was Solomon's temple like..... Who was the wises and riches person who ever lived! Then you would say God is vanity.....just look around you!
For the naysayers This church is in 1 of the few Business districts in Africa. (((No mammon here))) Exceptional *design* & I guarantee that JESUS is first & foremost here. John 14 : 6 & Acts 4 : 12. This church is nowhere near the DISTRACTING mega churches that actually do serve (((mammon))) Amen & amen !
6:12 These are the biggest LEDs in the country, not to be great or to be exceptional, but to communicate better... 😂 I think the marketing department went a bit overboard here. I’m sure they help a lot of the less fortunate, but you don’t really need a business church like this, which to me more looks like a ‘cult’ like center. I trust all those people who had a near death experience and mention that life is not about religion, but it’s about love.
No disrespect but this is a mall.... As you were doing the tour, it didn't feel like a church. Bless those who are members but it this couldn't be my church..
yes, I tried to tell relatives that a real Church isn't so worldly, this "church" makes itself very luxurious to attract worldly people. their goal is for people to not to come learn and worship the lord, but to attract as many people as possible. This "church" barely pays any attention to the fatherless and widows, they sit there spending on making fancy buildings
Alexander Anderson just come visit our church, you won’t regret it and most of the business stuff have more to do with the church its self to do things like feed the community have guest appearances and all sorts of other amazing stuff
Oh,my God... Didn't u see the church auditorium specially positioned? Other parts is just to make it a bit Classic...And people must get some cool drinks after service too..And have fun with friends... Isn't that amazing?
No u got it wrong...They got the church auditorium separately positioned...The other parts like the book shops, restaurant,pool for baptism,car park and office departments are all very important too..But separately positioned as well.. There is always time for everything...
When you start a business, to make money, as business does, but you're clever. 1. You get stupid people to finance it, without having to repay them. 2. You're not taxed on profits (on that score I can respect him, since tax is another form of theft from sheep), 3. You have a title and get to tell stupid people many lies which they slurp up and you have a sheen of respectability. Even though you're a crook preying on ignorance. Amazing what you can do when 10,000 fools club in, only too happy to give their money away.

I lift my hands and pray a blessing EVERYTIME I pass this Beautiful church.May Rivers continue to shine for Jesus in this dark world❤️
Please pray for our Church building we are worshipping the Lord in tents, help us and visit us
Wonderful place for God and for His people to meet for worship and fellowship with one another..I recommend Rivers Church for everyone around Johannesburg... SHALOM!
Such an amazing place! God bless Rivers Church with so much more in Jesus name. Amen
How much more do they need? Talk about excess!

kizzeith my uncle designed this whole building

That's not at all what church is about..

I am super impressed by how well thought out this was.
Whoever believes in Jesus shall not perish but have eternal life
Excellent spirit. Wow I’m inspired. Glory to God.
Many the Lord bless those who do things with excellency for the Lord
The most amazing church i've ever seen
It's even better face to face
Wow...Thank you for the inspiration...Touching and impacting lives - LOVE IT
AMAZING church, with amazing people!
Excellent advice, a must see for church staff.
Hey I go to that church and it is amazing,it's not a mall
Thanks for the tour...
So much wisdom.

God doesn't bless a church so it can showboat and spend God's money on fancy things. That lonely could have went to missions.
@@jarred281 What about the building king Solomon built for God? Is this an exception?
Fantastic!
Good job 👏
Wow these Is a blessing 💓 pray with us to build small church in Tanzania kilimanjaro
Wonderful and very beautiful, just for my own interest, how much did this building cost to finish building it.
Kindly reply.
Excellent advice! A must read for church staff!
So inspiring

It's hidden
I like the main audiotoriums PA system they are professional sound system
this is not a church, it a shopping centre, opera house, childcare, music arena, and playground

Jesus overturned the tables in the temple.
The percher: Hi yes this is our church!
Me: This is a mall

O, and you should check out Rivers foundation...wow
This is a waste of money church buildings should be plain no extra frills like this one the money spent on the frills could feed the hungry!

@@chippledon1 ikr I go there whenever I can because that pastor makes church FUN
I go to church here

vanity

You think this is something, you may not want to go to Heaven....streets of gold, that's really over the top for you!

Good design for the tample of god

Voddie Baucham has several hour long videos explaining what a true Church is, why youth groups are unsuccessful, corruption, etc.
Didn’t Jesus flip a table for stuff like this? Disgusting
Come to dcc
you can't have something like a mall in the Church shame on you
Alexander Anderson just come visit our church, you won’t regret it and most of the business stuff have more to do with the church its self to do things like feed the community have guest appearances and all sorts of other amazing stuff
Oh,my God... Didn't u see the church auditorium specially positioned? Other parts is just to make it a bit Classic...And people must get some cool drinks after service too..And have fun with friends... Isn't that amazing?
This is NOT worship. This is a concert hall+mall disguised as Christianity. Anathema! Anathema! Anathema! Return to Orthodoxy brethren!
exactly my Orthodox brother!!!!
why is church more of business than a church .
Just like a business, a church that does not make money cannot long survive! Ergo, the business nature of church.
No u got it wrong...They got the church auditorium separately positioned...The other parts like the book shops, restaurant,pool for baptism,car park and office departments are all very important too..But separately positioned as well.. There is always time for everything...

This building doesn't remotely resemble a church. If this is a house of God, it's most definitely desecrated.
It looks to me like that "church" is worshiping the world and not God.
