The vision at The Ridge is to do whatever it takes to reach our community for Christ. We believe that God has prompted The Ridge to interact with people in a way that points them toward Jesus and encourages them to surrender everything to him. This series is based on Acts 1:8 and how we are called to do whatever it takes in our homes, in our church, in our community, and in our world. One of the biggest areas of impact is through financial giving, and this series will combine the importance of doing whatever it takes with the importance of generosity. We are generous because Jesus was generous with us. 

Have you ever thought about what it would be like to catch a meal with Jesus? It would be amazing to sit down with him over a slice at your favorite pizza joint to talk about your life, hopes, dreams. Jesus often used meals with unexpected guests to teach important lessons. He sat down with liars, cheats, prostitutes, rich and poor, outcasts and leaders alike. What would you learn if you got to sit down and have dinner with Jesus?

How do we know if our relationship with Jesus is legit? We want the type of genuine faith that is put into action, producing real things in our lives, not a dead faith derived from dead people from centuries ago. This faith is the kind of faith that makes a difference. This summer, we’re going to talk about the type of roll-up-your-sleeves and get-your-hands-dirty type of faith that comes from a legit relationship with Jesus.

One word can sum up Christianity: grace. And grace is the solution for everything.

People were attracted to Jesus. Early Christianity was attractive. Why? Because of grace. Whether we realize it or not, grace is what we crave. It’s difficult to understand why everyone would not want Christianity to be true. This series helps us understand grace, as Jesus shows us what grace is (and is not) through His interactions with others.

Nothing is more attractive than grace. The solution for everything.

There’s no limit on hope. Because of our hope in God, we can discover a whole lot to smile about if we know where to look. This series will help us to live in the hope, and fight the urge for life to get us down. Stay joyful. Stay hopeful. And stay positive

Cynicism and negativity may be the easy choice, but they're not the best choice. If we seek what’s good, we’ll see what's good. This 3-week series will help us learn to be thankful and excited in spite of all the negativity we experience in this world. Weekly topics include hope/optimism, confidence in God, and encouragement.

Life is complicated. We don’t need to complicate it more with unwise decisions. How do you get it right? The Book of Proverbs tells us how to make life work. The advice from Proverbs has been tested for centuries and tells us how to put God’s wisdom into action!

The message of Christmas is that God is with us (Matthew 1:23)! Many of us need to hear that during the holiday season. We are never alone. God is with us in every moment; when we are hurting, anxious, or alone, but also when we are experiencing joy and celebrating. Perfectly suited for the Christmas season, “God With Us” (Immanuel) provides inspirational reminders of the impact of Christ’s birth.

What happens to you when you die? While some find this unpleasant to think about, it is something that all of us consider. Additionally, most people have many questions about the after-life! This series addresses what the Bible says about the after-life and the questions we have about it.
