    May 11, 2025TOPIC: Show Me JesusVERSES: Philippians 2:5-11 PASTOR: Great Sea Initiative Ministry PartnerThis blessing is for the whole world and we need a vision to match. But who is up to such a task? Jesus sent us to the people of every region, language, and culture on the planet to bring the blessing he died to give. How do we do this? It will take a mindset like Jesus's. This week our ministry partner, the director for the Great Sea Initiative for Converge International Ministries will be sharing about the importance of being like Jesus. Because when they hear us talk they are going to say, "Show Me Jesus." #NorthRidge #Jesus#churchonline WELCOME PAD / MY RESPONSE -- Use this link to respond to the sermon, request prayer, or to give tithe/offerings online: https://northridgefellowship.churchce...I'M SAYING YES TO JESUS!https://northridgefellowship.churchce...

    May 4, 2025TOPIC: Harvest TimeVERSES: John 4:27-38PASTOR: Ben McEachern, with church plant guest speakers, Kevin Drehmel, Harvest Church Pastor, Neil Eukel, Harvest City Church PastorThe harvest, in today's text, refers to a moment when people are ready to listen and they are gathered together around Jesus to receive the blessing. The model is Jesus. He went to a town, had a conversation with a woman, and gathered together those who would receive him. But the purpose of the harvest is to feed people. The gathered now feed. This week we hear from a couple church planters we are supporting, Kevin Drehmel (Harvest Church) and Neil Eukel (Harvest City Church). Maybe it's "Harvest Time?" #NorthRidge #Jesus#churchonline WELCOME PAD / MY RESPONSE -- Use this link to respond to the sermon, request prayer, or to give tithe/offerings online: https://northridgefellowship.churchce...I'M SAYING YES TO JESUS!https://northridgefellowship.churchce...

    April 27 - Driven by Love 2 Corinthians 5:11-21 Paul SchoolmeestersLove changes everything. It is the secret sauce of those who bring the blessing because it changes the way we view ourselves and the way we view the people we interact with. Today's text encourages us to think of ourselves as "Christ's ambassadors." It's only an experience of his love that will make us embrace that identity. Then we will be people "Driven by Love." #NorthRidge #Jesus#churchonline WELCOME PAD / MY RESPONSE -- Use this link to respond to the sermon, request prayer, or to give tithe/offerings online: https://northridgefellowship.churchce...I'M SAYING YES TO JESUS!https://northridgefellowship.churchce...

    September 22: Meeting God Exodus 3:1-22 How do you know you can trust God? After all, he doesn't always do what you want. Can you trust him to lead you? This is a big question and the answer hangs on the nature of his character and his power. So much is unknown. Do you know him? Today, God calls Moses to an impossible task. He starts the conversation by showing him (and us) who he is, because trusting God starts with "Meeting God." #intotheunknown #Jesus#churchonline WELCOME PAD / MY RESPONSE -- Use this link to respond to the sermon, request prayer, or to give tithe/offerings online: https://northridgefellowship.churchce...

    September 15: The Way of the Wilderness Exodus 2:11-25 When we start the journey of faith we all come with many opinions of what God should do and how. There is a way that seems so clear you wonder how God could miss it! So you help him out. If that's you, you're in good company. Moses had an "I'll do it my way" moment. So God hit reset and led him on "The Way of the Wilderness." #intotheunknown #Jesus#churchonline WELCOME PAD / MY RESPONSE -- Use this link to respond to the sermon, request prayer, or to give tithe/offerings online: https://northridgefellowship.churchce...

    September 8: Waiting on God Exodus 1:1-2:10 Life was going so well, until it wasn't. We've all been there when circumstances change and it's just not fun anymore. What do we do? Where do we go? Where's God? Maybe you're there right now. Today we start a journey of faith. For the next 3 months we will learn how to live by faith, by walking with the descendants of Jacob as God leads them out of slavery toward the place of blessing they do not know.

    September 1 - Trustworthy, by Brax Carvette, Youth Minister Matthew 25:14-30 It's such an honor when someone you love trusts you with something that matters to them. I find that very motivating and a joy. This week's parable is a reminder that the God we love has entrusted us with his stuff so we can be part of his bigger story. This week, come be inspired by the privilege and joy of our Father's trust. #Biggerstory#Jesus#churchonline WELCOME PAD / MY RESPONSE -- Use this link to respond to the sermon, request prayer, or to give tithe/offerings online: https://northridgefellowship.churchce...

This week, Jesus tells us a parable that says just the opposite. If you are part of His story you plan accordingly. You know you will see Him face to face and that causes great anticipation.

    August 18 – Who's Listening? by Dana Olson, Senior Pastor Faith Baptist Fellowship, Sioux Falls, SD Author of "Praying the King's Agenda: 21 Days of Focused Prayer" Luke 18:1-8 This week, we answer the call to the NorthRidge family to pray for the ministry season we are about to kick off in September. It is part of God's bigger story and I am asking you to pray like everything depends on it, because it does. But let's be honest, prayer doesn't always feel like it matters. In this week's parable, Jesus challenges us to keep praying by reminding us of who's listening. #Biggerstory#Jesus#churchonline WELCOME PAD / MY RESPONSE -- Use this link to respond to the sermon, request prayer, or to give tithe/offerings online: https://northridgefellowship.churchce...

    August 11 - The Secret Sauce Luke 14:7-14 It's ironic how God's bigger story is lived most effectively by people who are okay with being small. Humility is the secret sauce of the kingdom of God. Humble people are free. This week's parable is a description of how humble people operate. Freed from the need of the affirmation of others, we can step more fully into God's story. As we enter week two of our 21 Days of Prayer, let us pray for this kind of attitude for our ministry together. #Biggerstory#Jesus#churchonline WELCOME PAD / MY RESPONSE -- Use this link to respond to the sermon, request prayer, or to give tithe/offerings online: https://northridgefellowship.churchce...
