Description
The Ridge Roundtable Podcast is a ministry of Austin Ridge Bible Church. Hosts Joey Ruyter, Jeff Moore, and Lorri Winkcompleck tackle topics from everyday life and talk through how the Bible and our theology inform our understanding of the world around us. Life is full of questions, and we don't shy away from them.
Our hope and goal is to invite people to ask hard questions, and to wrestle through them together. We take our faith seriously, but not ourselves. We hope you laugh with us and learn with us, too! At the end of each episode, you will have a better understanding of how to talk about, think about, and live out your faith.
Ridge Roundtable Podcast is available wherever you get your podcasts.

We're excited to launch our new series, "I Don't Like That." Have you ever read a passage of Scripture or listened to a sermon on Sunday and thought "I don't like that!"? Some passages of Scripture can be difficult to understand and even harder to agree with because they come against our own opinions and desires.
