Highpoint Church

After Jeff resigned from Trinity Baptist, we felt it was still our church home until one Sunday in April. We both walked in and felt God telling us that our time there was over. We have lots of friends there and it was a hard decision for us, but we also know that when God tells us both something so clearly, we better do it!
Growing up in the ministry my whole life and then marrying a minister, deciding what church to attend was easy- where Dad and Jeff had a job! Searching for a church was something we dreaded so much. We wanted to make sure that it was going to be a place where we could be feed spiritually and we want our kids to grow up fully knowing the love and sacrifice of God. We had a long list (in our heads) of churches to visit. Some small, some large. Highpoint was first on our list so one Sunday in May, we took the plunge and we LOVED it! We both got in the car and talked about how it was everything we were wanting. In the middle of us talking about it, Preston interrupted us and said "God will never leave me". Well, that pretty much solidified our decision to stay at Highpoint. It has been a complete blessing to talk to Preston about what he is learning at church and to answer those millions of questions that he asks us about Jesus not to mention all the friendships he has developed. Yes, our shy little Preston actually talks in the classroom after we leave! We feel that God is going to use Highpoint to change our city in ways we can only imagine!

In October, we started attending a small group with 4 other couples. It was an instant match and we love them like they are our family! We have since added 2 more couples (and a babysitter :) :)) and look forward to that time every week.

That being said, we joined the church last night! Highpoint believes that in order to become a member of the church, you need to go through a class learning about the vision, direction, and beliefs of the church. We were fortunate enough to be able to have 2 of the staff members come to our small group last night and lead us through that class. YAY!! It just feels so right and we are so blessed to be a part of such a God fearing church!

Here We Go...

So I've decided to give this a shot. With having so many family members that live away from us, I thought this would be a good way for us to stay in touch and show off our "babies". I will try my hardest to keep this updated.
