RADIANT WOMEN

"Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame."

Psalm 34:5 (NIV)

Women Who Shine with Purpose

Radiant Women is the Women’s Ministry of River of Life Church in Jacksonville, North Carolina. We are a growing community of women—young and old—who are passionately pursuing Jesus and boldly proclaiming the Gospel near and far. In a world full of noise and distraction, we believe God is raising up a generation of women who are captivated by His voice and determined to follow His call.

Led by Pastor Miriam Phillips, Radiant Women is more than just a ministry—it’s a movement. Together, we encourage one another, grow in faith, and run with purpose to make Jesus known in our homes, city, and the world.
