We welcome Dr. Glenn Jonas to The Ridge for an autumn study on issues surrounding church and state. Dr. Jonas has taught at Campbell University since 1994, teaching courses in the area of Church History. He has served as department chair and Associate Dean of the College of Art and Sciences. He’s also published a number of books and articles, and he regularly serves as an interim pastor and guest preacher. Dr. Jonas will bring a wealth of information about the history of Baptists and their views on American government, from the birth of our country to the present day.

Our study will take place in the music suite October 18th, October 25th, and November 1st with a light meal at 5:30 and the session to follow at 6:30. All are welcome and we hope to see you there!

Make your way over to The Ridge to discover handmade crafts and arts from a number of our home-grown makers. Rain or shine, we hope you’ll join us for a day celebrating all things crafty!

Rise Against Hunger, an international humanitarian organization, is growing a global movement to end hunger by empowering communities, nourishing lives and responding to emergencies. We are thrilled to play a part in their mission by coming together to pack meals that will be used globally.

Make plans to join Ridge Road on Wednesday, February 18th, at 6:00 PM in the sanctuary for a traditional Ash Wednesday service. This year, we’ll also take part in the ritual of communion as we reflect on life, sacrifice, and community at the start of Lent. Please join us for this powerful and contemplative time together.

You’re invited to worship at Ridge Road Baptist Church for a special tradition we call “Three Songs”. We’ll contemplate melodies, harmonies, and tempos as we consider how music speaks to our faith in ways that words alone cannot. We’ll also consider tunes that don’t traditionally make their way into worship experiences.

Join us for a community-wide, brain-quizzing trivia night in the chapel. We’re serving up soups and sides before the game begins to keep you warm on these cold nights. Teams of 6 will compete to win gift cards to Two Roosters ice cream. Just met your teammates? Don’t worry! Each member of the top two teams will win their own gift card! See you in the chapel at 5:30PM!
