"It's my life, I can do what I want, when I want, with whom I want . . . as long as nobody gets hurt." This is what we tell ourselves. But what if it's not true? What if our desire to do what is right in our own eyes has major consequences for us, for the people with us, for the people who love us, and for the people coming after us? www.ridgechurchclt.org Facebook.com/ridgechu...

It's scary out there--no doubt about it. We'd all like to remove fear and uncertainty from our lives, but that's not always possible. Are we destined to live scared to death or can we discover a new way of dealing with anxiety and worry? www.ridgechurchclt.org Facebook.com/ridgechurchclt Instagram.com/ridgechurchclt Youtube.com/@ridgechurchclt Ridge Thrive

Ever wish you could talk someone out of being a “Christian”—just so you could invite them back into the real thing? In this message, we look at what it means to find our way home in faith. Through the Creed’s final words— “We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come” —we discover a hope that doesn’t discard broken things but restores them. Christianity isn’t about e...

Ever wonder why Christians can look—and sound—so different? From politics to denominations, it can feel like everyone’s claiming to represent Jesus but standing on opposite sides. In this week’s message, we explore what it means to be part of one holy, worldwide, unified church —anchored in history, committed to the future, and powered by grace. The faith isn’t fragile, and there’s a place for you...

In a world where “Christian” can mean just about anything depending on who you ask, in this series we’re trying to cut through the noise together. We’re exploring what it actually means to follow Jesus—beyond politics, opinions, and ideologies—and rediscovering the core of our faith through the lens of the ancient Nicene Creed. It’s about unity, clarity, and an open invitation to everyone still fi...

What if the story of Jesus didn’t end with the cross? The Creed reminds us: “On the third day he rose again…” The resurrection wasn’t just a miracle—it was a promise kept. And when Jesus ascended, it wasn’t about leaving, it was about taking His rightful throne and sending us His Spirit. This week we explore how the resurrection, ascension, and promised return give us unity, hope, and power for to...

Christianity isn’t about sameness—it started with a wildly diverse crowd united under one banner: Jesus. In this message, we unpack the Creed’s bold claim: “We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ.” His story is history, but it’s also an invitation—your story, my story, our story. www.ridgechurchclt.org Facebook.com/ridgechurchclt Instagram.com/ridgechurchclt Youtube.com/@ridgechurchclt Ridge Thrive

Christians can sometimes make Christianity confusing—angry, kind, judgmental, helpful, and everything in between. But at its core, following Jesus isn’t about politics or personalities; it’s about confessing who God is and trusting that He is enough. In this message, we explore the Nicene Creed’s opening line—“We believe in one God, the Father Almighty”—and why your faith is not fragile when ancho...

Christians look different—some serve the marginalized, some protest, some worship in suits, others on couches. So what does it really mean to follow Jesus? In this series, we're exploring the essence of faith through the Nicene Creed, a guiding rope connecting believers across history to the resurrection. From believing "that" to believing "in", we’ll uncover how Christian...

As we wrap up this series centered around the health of our spiritual and emotional heart, we have to make sure this checkup is a part of our routine. Do we care about the things that the people we care about care about? Sometimes it comes a little more naturally, but how can we make this a beat of our heart.  www.ridgechurchclt.org Facebook.com/ridgechurchclt Instagram.com/ridgechurchclt Youtube....

There is a very real battle between what we want now and what we want most, and we have a choice to make—will our hearts be set on NOW or LATER? www.ridgechurchclt.org Facebook.com/ridgechurchclt Instagram.com/ridgechurchclt Youtube.com/@ridgechurchclt Ridge Thrive

One way to test the spiritual condition of your heart is to listen to the words you say. In Matthew 15:10-20, Jesus teaches that the words we say reveal what’s in our hearts. Monitoring the nature of your words can help you monitor the condition of your heart. When it comes to your heart, do you hear yourself? www.ridgechurchclt.org Facebook.com/ridgechurchclt Instagram.com/ridgechurchclt Youtube....

It's a pretty mighty thing to know that God is FOR me and you. But it should always be followed by a comma not a period. He is FOR me, so I will be FOR others.  www.ridgechurchclt.org Facebook.com/ridgechurchclt Instagram.com/ridgechurchclt Youtube.com/@ridgechurchclt Ridge Thrive

Self-Control. That little compound word that seems like it's too much to handle. As we wrap up the conversation about the Fruit of the Spirit, we follow the example of Jesus and let the Spirit lead the way.  www.ridgechurchclt.org Facebook.com/ridgechurchclt Instagram.com/ridgechurchclt Youtube.com/@ridgechurchclt Ridge Thrive

Faithfulness stands out because unfaithfulness is all too common. In our conversation about the Fruit of the Spirit, faithfulness means being someone others can count on -- but what happens when someone isn't -- what if that someone is you. www.ridgechurchclt.org Facebook.com/ridgechurchclt Instagram.com/ridgechurchclt Youtube.com/@ridgechurchclt Ridge Thrive

Gentleness isn’t weakness—it’s strength that’s been trained to love well. In our conversation about the Fruit of the Spirit, gentleness is the ability to respond with grace when we could react with force. This kind of strength doesn’t come from willpower, but from the Spirit shaping us from the inside out. www.ridgechurchclt.org Facebook.com/ridgechurchclt Instagram.com/ridgechurchclt Youtube.com/...

Every July we take one week off to give our voluteers and staff an opportunity to spend more time with family. But take a listen to this incredible baptism story and revisit an important message for the series "Out of the Shallows".  www.ridgechurchclt.org Facebook.com/ridgechurchclt Instagram.com/ridgechurchclt Youtube.com/@ridgechurchclt Ridge Thrive

What's Good? Sometimes it's a casual remark, but the deeper you go the more you find it can be difficult to figure out. But we have a guide for life when we yield to God's Spirit. www.ridgechurchclt.org Facebook.com/ridgechurchclt Instagram.com/ridgechurchclt Youtube.com/@ridgechurchclt Ridge Thrive

The world’s got a lot to say about being a man—but most of it misses the mark. Jesus shows us a better way: strength with humility, truth with love, and purpose that lasts. Real manhood starts with following Him.  www.ridgechurchclt.org Facebook.com/ridgechurchclt Instagram.com/ridgechurchclt Youtube.com/@ridgechurchclt Ridge Thrive
