Bible Study
What is now known as No Walls Ministry began humbly in 2010 with a small men’s Bible study just a handful of men from different cultures, neighborhoods, and denominations who gathered with a shared longing: to truly understand and live out the gospel’s call to unity. They were captivated by the truth of Ephesians 2:14 that Jesus Christ “is our peace, who has made us one and has broken down the dividing wall of hostility.”
For generations, the church had been fractured by race, class, culture, and denomination, and those divisions caused real harm both to the witness of the church and to the people within it. We refused to accept that this was the way things had to remain. They yearned for something deeper and more Christlike. They wanted to taste the unity God intends for His diverse Body. They wanted relationships that crossed social lines, broke cultural barriers, and reflected the reconciling power of Jesus.
That same hunger for unity continues today. Week after week, people still gather to open God’s Word, share life, challenge one another, and grow together in Christ. Their fellowship has become a living example of what the gospel makes possible when barriers fall.
The group meets every Monday morning at 7:00 AM at Rivermont Evangelical Presbyterian Church, and all men are warmly invited to join them no matter your background, denomination, or story.
“How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity!”
Psalm 133:1
“There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.”
Galatians 3:28
Rise&Build
Pathway to Homeownership & Generational Wealth
Rise & Build is dedicated to helping individuals break the long-standing cycles of financial instability that hold so many families back. Through steady, practical, and relational coaching, we equip people with the tools they need to regain control of their finances and rebuild the structure of their lives. Our program focuses on three core pillars: strengthening financial discipline, building and repairing credit, and creating a solid life plan that supports long-term success.
For many participants, this journey is not just about numbers or budgeting it’s about reclaiming dignity, confidence, and the belief that a stable future is actually possible. Rise & Build walks with families step-by-step, helping them navigate challenges, establish healthy habits, and move toward milestones like homeownership, stability, and generational security. Each breakthrough no matter how small represents real progress toward a life with stronger foundations and renewed hope.
The impact of this work goes far beyond the individual. When someone gains financial stability, their children benefit, their household becomes stronger, and their future opportunities multiply. What begins with coaching becomes a pathway toward long-term growth, healthier decision-making, and the opportunity to build something meaningful for the next generation.
Your donation fuels this transformation. Every gift directly supports families who are actively working to rise above hardship, build credit, break destructive patterns, and create a legacy of responsibility, stability, and equity. By investing in Rise & Build, you’re investing in real people, real change, and a stronger future for our community.
