The American Christian has enjoyed an unprecedented life of ease. Out of all the followers of Christ over the last 2000 years, I am not sure what percentage of those would be 19th, 20th, 21st century Americans. Let’s say 15%. In that other 85%, it has been hard to be a Christian. There has been a great cost to following Christ, which He warned in Luke 14 when He said NOT to follow Him before counting the cost. Did we have to weigh any cost to become His follower? I believe it will begin to cost to follow Christ in America.

The Heights Strategy in Partnering
April 28, 2024 • Rev. Wes Rose
Today is the culmination of the last three weeks coming out of Easter. And we are going to address one of the most significant aspects of missions at our church. And that is partnerships. When possible, we develop partnerships for a variety of reasons, and we base our partnerships on Relationships, trust and common purpose or goal. Both overseas and local partners have skills, resources and an expertise that may not have or need to have because of our partnership.
Missions Strategy for The Heights
April 21, 2024 • Rev. Wes Rose
I need (or we need as a church) to have a strategy. Not trying to sound business like or corporate, but there are a lot of needs and people out there and there is a limit on time, people and resources it would be impossible try and do everything. And somewhere along the way I am trusting that God has a plan.
He's Alive, So Love
April 14, 2024 • Dr. Randall T. Hahn
Already two weeks past Easter, but you remember we ended our Easter service asking the question, 'How does someone who possesses the good news that Jesus is alive, that I have been saved from sin, death, and hell; live?' What is the appropriate response to this good news? Last week we heard Jesus say, 'I am alive, go tell, go share.' And today we will hear Him say, 'I am alive, go love.'
