 Welcoming
We are praying everyday that God sends people just like you into our lives. And just as God has done with us, we seek to take people wherever they are in their walk with God. You will be greeted with a smile and a warm latte at our coffee bar (Higher Grounds).
Whether you need space or want to engage in meaningful conversation, we seek to be responsive to your needs. If you are looking for deeper relationships, we also invite you to check out one of our connection groups.
God and Christ Centered
Our worship focuses on what God has accomplished through Jesus Christ. We praise him by telling of all of his wonderful nature and all of his mighty acts of creation and salvation. We talk to him by offering up prayers, and through Scripture readings and messages from the word of God we listen to him. Through our giving we thank him and acknowledge his rule over all of our lives.
 Spiritual
When we gather together, we believe that God himself is present through his Holy Spirit. We offer up spiritual songs using our voices, and we seek to show that the Spirit is indeed among us by demonstrating the characteristics of the Spirit--love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. We celebrate the Lord's Supper each week, there encountering the risen Christ and remembering his death and resurrection.
Culturally Relevant
In today's culture, multimedia is a way of life, and so appropriate video, slides, and songs that enhance and illustrate the biblical message are used each Sunday. Our Internet based culture is also highly interactive, and so people share their stories or testimonies of faith, with questions being asked during the message to engage the members. Messages offer practical help for daily Christian living at work, in the family, and in the church.
Children Fri endly
Jesus said that unless we become like little children, we cannot enter into the kingdom of God. One of the favorite parts of the service for young and old alike at High Pointe is our "Children Helping Children" section, in which children stream down to the front during a children's song and give a small donation that goes towards helping needy children. Their giving hearts teach us about God.
To help both parents and children worship, there is a "Kidzone" section of worship for children age three to second grade. A twos nursery is also provided for Sunday morning worship.
Uplifting
Through focusing on God, our faith is built up for service to others throughout the week. We serve each other in our "worship service" by providing opportunities for fellowship, sharing, confessing, prayer requests, and responding to God's word. People are welcome to be outwardly expressive in their worship or not, each as God has made them.
