Getting Started

What does it mean to be a man?

Have you ever considered what it really means to be a "man" today?  We know what the world says about men, and the statistics only help confirm what many people believe.  Can we rise above it?  Is there a vision for manhood that is compelling to our generation and inspiring our children?  Join our annual "Men's Fraternity" program as we together pursue a Quest for Authentic Manhood.  This program is a great starting point for new visitors and members to connect with other men at The Ridge.

VIRTUAL STUDY:
Many men in our body travel frequently.  Others with scheduling difficulties just can't make it to a weekly study.  We have created a study option just for you!  The virtual study is a satellite program of the 24-week Men's Fraternity study (Quest for Authentic Manhood), and will progress along the same schedule.  You can log-in and watch or listen to the sessions from literally anywhere with an internet connection, and participate in group discussions via message boards, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.  While attendance at the live session is not required, those participating online will be assigned as "virtual members" to small groups of men meeting in the live program at church, so they can attend whenever possible to fellowship with their group and personally connect with other men.  The message board will be updated weekly, and postings will be facilitated by a businessman at the Ridge who has been leading virtual studies of The Quest for Authentic Manhood for over three years.  To get the most out of virtual discussions, the message board will be open to previous graduates of the program, as well as those participating in the live weekly sessions at church.  

To register for the spring semester, please contact Shiloh Coleman (scoleman@sectorsupply.com) (individual session viewing fees are TBD and due at a later date).
