Christmas At Ridgepoint
During this four-week Christmas series we'll take a deeper look at the four words historically associated with the Advent season: Hope, peace, joy, and love.
Joy
December 17, 2023 • Andy Owen
A lot of the songs we sing around Christmas time talk about joy. We often think of joy as "happiness," but true, biblical joy is a lot deeper than that. This week Pastor Andy talks about joy that comes from the Holy Spirit, and our responsibility to put it on display to the world.
Peace
December 10, 2023 • Pastor Brent Warkentin
The Bible describes three types of peace: relationship peace, fellowship peace, and situational peace. Throughout Scripture, God promises to give us peace, but sometimes that calm, tranquil feeling can be very elusive. What does it mean for Jesus to be the Prince of Peace, and how can we actually experience it in our day-to-day lives?
Hope
December 3, 2023 • Pastor Brent Warkentin
Kicking off our Advent teaching series, Pastor Brent focuses on the theme of hope. We all wish for things, but biblical hope is confidently anchored in God and His perfect plan. By definition, hope requires waiting. But while we wait, we can rest in the promises of Scripture.
