Our Weekly Update

Our Spiritual warfare series

“Many shall purify themselves and make themselves white and be refined, but the wicked shall act wickedly. And none of the wicked shall understand, but those who are wise shall understand.”

— Daniel 12:10

Highland, as we concluded our series through Daniel earlier this year, this passage continued to resonate within my prayer-life. Recognizing that, according to the angelic-being speaking to Daniel, that “those who are wise will understand”, our study of spiritual warfare would allow us to see and yield to the wisdom in God’s Word.

As our hearts are enlightened through this study, it is my hope that we will firm up our grip upon God’s Word, as it relates to spiritual warfare. Handling His Word like a sword, let us learn to disentangle ourselves from the talons of the evil-one. I am praying, too, that we learn to discern truth from the lies of the enemy, which we so often assign belief, thereby soiling our hearts.

The only way to cleanse and purify our hearts is through the wisdom of God’s Word. I am praying that we gain a richer understanding of how to, in the Holy Spirit, navigate through the valleys of wickedness, according to the light of His Word. Therefore, here are our goals for this Topical Series:

  • To define Spiritual Warfare Biblically

  • To better understand the power and the work of the Holy Spirit in the life of the repentant-sinner

  • To understand our enemy, the devil, creating Biblical tactics to stand firm against our enemy.

This upcoming Sunday, we continue to understand how Scripture sheds light on spiritual warfare. We will take a look at how Jesus defines our enemy, then take the time to look at how we handle temptation as well. I look forward to seeing you. By the way, last week’s sermon is available through our audio page.

Happy Memorial Day

"Those who have long enjoyed such privileges as we enjoy forget in time that men have died to win them." –Franklin D. Roosevelt

Land of the free because of the brave resonates with us all today, as we honor our fallen. Happy Memorial Day, Highland. We will be closed in observance of Memorial Day.

Our Weekly Update

Riding into summer

Highland,

As we near the end of the school year, I hope that everyone is gearing up for an adventurous summer. Our family welcomes a little slower pace to life.

We will spend some time in Orlando with my family. My parents have a place down there chock full of amenities! Additionally, thanks to the generosity of my family, we will be able to attend Sea World while we’re down there, too!

We also will be in Tennessee a good bit. We will catch a concert in Nashville and fish the Hiwassee River in Reliance, too! I hope to spend as much time traversing Standing Boy Trails which is just a stone’s throw from our home. What a gift that place is to Columbus!

Wanna Grab Coffee?

Please know, though, that if you’d like to grab coffee over the summer, reach out to me. I would welcome the chance to meet you at Highland and sip a cup of coffee over conversation with you.

Help Us Host Youth Groups?

Finally, we will host two youth groups this Summer. They will be here doing missions work. We could use your help as we host them. Both groups will be here in July. If you’re interested, please let me or Megan know, thanks!

Communion — Repentance & Rejoicing

Recap of last week’s Sermon

As we held Communion last Sunday, we examined our own hearts in repentance, while rejoicing over God’s forgiving-heart. Being heartbroken over our own sinfulness always results in jubilant celebration over His mercy and forgiveness, Highland. Yielding to the Lord does not result in us having a better life or becoming better versions of ourselves, it results in us being made new, according to His holy nature. As Chambers tells us, only the Lord can accomplish this eternal and wondrous work in our hearts. See his statement below:

“Repentance means not only sorrow and distress for the wrong we’ve done, but the acceptance and the atonement of Jesus, which will make me what I have never been – holy.” — Oswald Chambers

In the slide above, you see how Paul lays out this understanding of repentance in his instruction to Titus. May we continue to foster, Highland, fruits consistent with repentance, leading us to raise our hands to the Lord in adoration and surrender of His Name. For He is our salvation. He is our strong tower.

Our battle tactic: “Therefore lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees, and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be put out of joint but rather be healed. Strive for peace with everyone, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord” (Hebrews 12:12-14).

sunday morning Series for the Summer

Starting this Sunday, we will begin our new Sermon Series. I do not actually have a title for the series, but the topical-series will be centered on spiritual warfare. Years ago, I read a book by Warren Wiersbe (another author that has had a tremendous impact on my life) called “The Strategy of Satan.” While he is most known for his commentaries, this book is his more personal study on spiritual warfare. Though we rarely do a series closely connected to a book, this book will serve us well, Highland. Services begin at 10am.

Our First Agape Feast

what a joyous occasion

To those who helped make Sunday’s Agape Feast such a life-giving experience for our Highland family, thank you! Willow Point, you went above and beyond, wow – thank you! I am already looking forward to our next one; we will hold Communion and our Agape Feast once a quarter.

Our Weekly Update

communion & Agape Feast this sunday

Highland,

This Sunday, we observe the Lord’s Supper. Our 10am service will center around examining our hearts in a spirit of repentance, while rejoicing over what Jesus has done for us, exalting His name, as Redeemer!

As we complete our service, we will then transition into our Agape Feast. As presented last Sunday, this meal is one in which we want the entire church to take part. The invitation serves to deepen our love for one another, resulting in strengthening the fibers of our Highland-Family. This recap of the meaning of the word, Agape, I hope refreshes our hearts and minds:

Meaning of Agape

  • This is the most common word used for love in the New Testament.

  • It is a love not motivated by feeling but rather by choice.

  • It is unconditional in nature (to include those who would be considered despised, unlovely, excluded or an enemy).

  • In the plural form it means “Feasts of Love”, a public banquet started by the early church and connected with the celebration of the Lord’s Supper/communion. They were intended to be an exhibition of the unconditional love that is required and exists within the Christian faith.

Make plans to join us, please!

On a practical note, once Communion concludes, please ensure that you pick up your child(ren) from the nursery so that families can eat together during our Agape Feast. Also, we will allow those who ride our van to be served first, so that riders can eat, then the van route can start immediately after our riders finish their meal.

Thanks, Willow Point!

This Agape Feast meal will be provided by Willow Point Dental Office and how thrilled I am that they are willing to serve us. To all at Willow Point who are taking part in providing this Agape Feast, thank you! We are incredibly grateful to each of you.

Our Weekly Update

We acknowledge & Celebrate our Mothers

“Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. “Honor your father and mother” (this is the first commandment with a promise), “that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land.”

— Ephesians 6:1-3

This Sunday, we honor and express our mothers. The Lord promises that those who honor their parents will experience His blessing! Highland, let us foster a culture that celebrates our parents, in this case, mothers. Mamas, know that you are valued beyond measure.

Last Sunday’s Sermon

David’s sermon was one that I savored all week! Getting a clearer picture of what authority versus power looks like was eye opening for me. We now are able to record and post our sermons, thanks to a little help from our friends. In the meantime, check out David’s sermon. It’s an excellent meal for our souls.

This Sunday, we will highlight our plans for Lord’s Supper as we move forward. Though we will hold Communion May 19th, we will do a little prep work for our hearts this Sunday. In addition to that, we will honor mothers by way of a Mother’s Day devotion.

Finally, we will do a little housekeeping. We need to discuss our needs for at least two more van drivers. It is our goal to get a person to drive in the morning and a person to drive in the afternoon, lightening the load for everyone. Let’s work together so that we can care for those who need us most, Highland.

our Sunday SERVICE IS HELD AT 10AM

This season of testimonies continues to bolster with life! To celebrate Christ as Conqueror with all of you exalts Jesus, while drawing us deeper in relationship with one another.

This Sunday, we continue with testimonies, including a baptism! Joshua Klaus has come to the knowledge of Christ as Lord. He will be making his public profession this Sunday, followed by his baptism. At the end of our service, we will invite Joshua and his family up on stage and hear from them. We will then all proceed to our lawn, just in front of the dining facility.

Once out there, I ask you all gather round the baptismal and be prepared to celebrate Joshua being raised in the newness of life, in Christ Jesus! Once the baptism is over, our service will conclude.

A Few Ways You Can Help

We are hoping to reinforce our van-driving team. Currently, our team’s incredible – wow, thank you, van drivers. It is our hope, though, to help divide and conquer. We are hoping to get enough drivers to create a morning team and an afternoon team of drivers. Please contact us if you are willing to help strengthen our van route.

We do ask that you also help us clean up after service, too. To assist in the process, we have created a Signup Genius to help organize our efforts. Please sign up by clicking the link below.

Highland Cafe’

Each weekday, we open our cafe to those who want to stop by and grab a free cup of coffee. The hours will be 8:30am-11:30am. We need willing volunteers to come and greet our coffee drinkers. Take this opportunity to pray with those who enter, to spend time with one another over a warm cup of coffee. Another way you could assist is to help us stay stocked with coffee supplies – things like K-cups, sugar, cups, spoons and cream. As the weather warms up, water bottles and snacks are great additions too! You can make a donation to “Neighborhood Missions” through our website or consider just bringing items by the church throughout week. Coffee goes a long way in expressing our love to our neighbors! Thanks for helping us care for our community!

OUR RIBBON CUTTING CEREMONY this thursday

Our Ribbon Cutting Ceremony is this upcoming Thursday, at 11:30am. All are invited to come and celebrate with us. Plan to park in the gravel parking lot, along Sixth Avenue, just beside our dumpster-facility. Our actual parking lot will be used to host food trucks. After the ceremony, please help yourself to a meal, on us!

Lending a Helping Hand

We have had four families reaching out to us asking for help with living room furniture. If you are willing and able to help, please contact the church at (706) 249-9424.

In Closing

As we continue to settle, Highland, I want to point out to you three simple ways we will go deeper:

  1. Staying together: Let’s continue to foster a love for one another that’s rooting in staying-love. Let us strengthen our relationships with one another and with the Lord, especially through trying circumstances. One way we will foster this will be holding Communion, the holding an Agape Feast following communion four times a year. Highland’s Board discussed this plan last Sunday and our first Communion/Agape Feast event is scheduled for Sunday, May 19th. Let’s spend this time together, expressing our resolved commitment to Christ and to one another, Highland.

  2. Serving together: When we serve together, we get to know one another and connect in deeper ways. Let’s continue to do so and cultivate ways to continue to do so. Just looking at this email, there are multiple ways to serve; jump in! Let’s serve one another and connect with one another.

  3. Studying together: May we continue to foster ways to study together, both organically and systematically. I intend for us to start a church-wide study this August, Sunday mornings, at 9am. It’s a 13 week study that will serve both our children and our parents. More to come as the time nears.

I love you, Highland.

Grateful for you,

Rob

our Sunday SERVICE IS HELD AT 10AM

Thank you for your patience with me as the dust continues to settle throughout our transition. You may have noticed that we have been attempting to make some adjustments to our service. In so doing, we are attempting to hone in even more on the fostering of corporate worship through: 1. corporate-singing, 2. opening God’s Word together, 3. through praying together, 4. then giving. As it stands for now, offertory is being held at the end of service. It is my hope we conclude with our Offertory Declaration, then give as leave. Let’s see how the Lord orchestrates His plans for us as we pursue Him, Highland.

To those who are helping after service, thank you! It makes such a difference. To those who are offering to, I want to thank you as well. We are hoping to get a system in place in which we can get all of the spaces tidied up after service (restrooms, kitchen and dining facility and the gym). One of the ways you could help is, if you spill in the gym, please clean up that spill. Also, we now have two trash cans placed in the gym. We ask that you throw away any trash that’s found in the gym. Little things go a long way!

Testimonies continue this Sunday, Highland. As we share life in Christ together throughout this season, it serves to embolden our confidence in Christ and to strengthen the fibers of us, as His people. To those who’ve shared, thank you! To those sharing this Sunday, we look forward to hearing how the Lord has ordered your steps.
