The word advent means "arrival" or "coming," and for the Christian, the advent season is marked by both remembrance and anticipation. This year we'll be examining the life of John the Baptist - a man who's calling perfectly reflects the idea of advent. Even before he was born, John was chosen by God to prepare the way for His promised Messiah, the Savior of the world.
Where did we come from? Why are we here? Why is the world the way that it is? Sometimes to understand the big picture, we have to go back to the beginning. Genesis provides big answers to big questions as it tells the story of who God is and His plan for the world.
Our faith isn't meant to be hidden away inside us. Jesus' command to 'go and make disciples' means we have a responsibility to pass along what we know as we live our faith out in everyday life. As we grow in faith, God will use us to encourage others toward a faith in Jesus, and model what a relationship with Him looks like. 2 Timothy is the Apostle Paul's faithful encouragement to Timothy to 'walk this way'.
The world constantly challenges us with claims of truth, but truth is not subjective. The letters of John will show us how the truth of Jesus can set us free from a world trapped in darkness, so we can walk in the light as children of God.
From messages about being involved in a church family to messages about mothers, fathers and more, this is the place to find all of our sermons that aren't a part of a regular series.
The book of Ephesians is a letter from the Apostle Paul that explains how we've been made new through Jesus Christ, and encourages us to live out our new life in all we do - from our jobs to our marriages, families and more. We've been made worthy to walk worthy.
We are blessed to be able to welcome guest speakers on occasion who visit Highlands to present Bible-based messages that inspire us and challenge us to grow our faith.
