Ridge Students have officially arrived in Gulf Shores, and we couldn’t be more excited for what God has in store this week!

As you look through these photos, would you join us in praying for our students and leaders? Pray that God would move powerfully in the lives of our students, draw them closer to Him, and use this week to make an eternal impact. Pray for our leaders and volunteers—that they would have wisdom, opportunities and energy (especially after the overnight drive!) to encourage and disciple every student this week.

We are so excited to see how God moves in the lives of everyone at Beach Camp 2026!

How close to the fire are you getting? This week we explored the story of Samson and Delilah from Judges 16—a cautionary tale about the slow erosion of strength through compromise. Delilah's manipulation and Samson's arrogance remind us that no matter how spiritually strong we think we are, toying with temptation is dangerous.

Even after devastating failure, God isn't done with us. He offers restoration and renewed strength when we turn back to Him.

This week, assess your vulnerabilities. Stop playing with fire. Get close to God instead.

"Re|engage helped change the way we communicate and gave us the tools to prioritize our marriage during a busy season of life with little kids." – Brandon & Shelby Grace

One of the things Brandon and Shelby appreciated most about Re|engage was the weekly accountability, meaningful conversations, and the opportunity to grow alongside other couples who were pursuing Christ-centered marriages. Along the way, they built lasting friendships and experienced real growth together as husband and wife.

Whether your marriage is thriving or needs a fresh start, Re|engage offers a place to strengthen your relationship and connect with other couples walking the same journey.

This week we explored the story of Cain—the first villain of Scripture. His story isn't just ancient history; it's a mirror reflecting the brokenness that resides in all of us. Genesis 4 reveals how small seeds of ingratitude, entitlement, and anger can escalate into life-altering sin.

Are you harboring bitterness? Clutching things too tightly? Living with unconfessed anger? Here's the hope: no matter how grievous the sin, God's grace goes even further. Don't label those seeds as insignificant—bring them to Jesus before they take root.
