SUNDAY’S 10AM SERVICE AT THE FIREHOUSE
Noah strickland leads us in worship
When we finished up lunch last Sunday, Noah and I had a few moments to talk at the table. It ranged from Sunday’s service to plans for the week. It was a moment that was stiller than usual in a typically busy house-hold. He then grabbed the guitar and started plucking as background music to our conversation.
He started playing some riffs from Breakfast Choir songs - riffs I am not good enough to play - and it sounded great. Then, he asked if he could lead the church in a worship service one Sunday. I was so moved, Highland. My son, who has been raised at Highland, is hopeful to lead us in corporate-worship. It was a moment I will cherish forever! Not only is my son playing well and loving Highland-classics like, “Walk with Me, Lord”, but he is also a young man who seeks to personally walk with the Lord. The integrity and sturdy faith he displays makes me so proud of him! What more could a dad ask for than for his son to walk personally with Christ? There is no other who satisfies.
As Noah leads us this Sunday in worship, realize that we have all shared a part in raising him, Highland. We will all join with the Psalmist who said: “One generation commends Your works to another; they tell of Your mighty acts” (Psalm 145:4).

I hope you all had a joyous Thanksgiving!

I love you, Highland.
See you Sunday,
Rob
