Ridge: Students. Note to Parents: Our strategy is to walk alongside parents to help them disciple their student(s). We do this by equipping students to know, love, and follow Christ. Part of how we do this is to create a community where students think deeply about Christ, glorify God in all things, and by taking the Gospel to the nations. ​ Gatherings There is no formal "check-in" for the student ministry. On Wednesday nights and Sunday mornings, students will go to our student space to spend time in community, bible study, and prayer. ​ Connect Each month there are numerous opportunities for students to connect with others outside of weekly scheduled gatherings. See the events section below to explore how your student(s) can connect with us. Sundays : 9:30am | Wednesdays : 5:30pm Curriculum The Book of Habakkuk — Wednesdays and Sundays There is a section of the Old Testament from Isaiah to Malachi that are known as the Major and Minor prophets. Each book tells us of a different person whom God used to tell specific group of people to repent from their sin and turn to God. The Book of Habakkuk is known as one of the minor prophets of these Old Testament prophets. Among his experiences, Habakkuk was grown troubled over God's apparent tolerance of injustice. We follow a conversation between God and the prophet Habakkuk over the question of injustice, idolatry, and the rising threat of Babylon. In this conversation, we hear Habakkuk's complaints over this injustice and God's responses. This dialogue leads us to see God's righteousness and justice in the midst of our apparent observations of what we see. For us today, the appearance of injustice is a common. We hear and read about events of apparent injustice. This is something that many of us have in common. Even more for students, how can they make sense of those who seem neglected, ignored, or mistreated. The book of Habakkuk gives us help in seeing the apparent injustice and inspires us to hope, trust, and rejoice in God's faithfulness to His promises.
