Jesus compares the Holy Spirit to wind. This is not only a powerful metaphor, but also it gives us a slogan to strive for. As Christians, we are striving to "Catch the Wind".

Catch the Wind

Slogans are meant for identity. A good slogan becomes a mantra that reminds us of something (who they are, or what they are selling). A Godly slogan, then, becomes a Godly mantra that reminds us of Godly truths (our identity). And that is what this series is about.

Be the Branch

This is the final installment of our series focusing on the journey of finding purpose and direction by talking about our destination. Some may say this is "heaven" or "hell" (which is not wrong), but it might be better explained as "with God" or "without God."

The Destination

One truth about our spiritual journey is that we are all going to get off the trail of following God. But the real question is... are we going to get back on track?

Getting off the Trail

We talk about the need to help people, but when the rubber meets the road, we don’t often take the opportunities when they are clearly present. Jesus has a story for us to consider.

Stop and Help

Along the journey of life, God beckons us to "stop and look" at what He is doing. Whether through a burning bush, a cloud of his presence, or maybe even in the beauty of His creation. But all-too-often we miss it.

Stop and Look

On any journey there are certain preparations that need to be made. This Sunday, we will look at how we should be prepared for our spiritual journey.

Preparing for the Unexpected

Before any journey, we should “take stock” of what we have and what we need. On our spiritual journey a good evaluation is also needed.

Taking Stock

Sunday morning lesson by Dane Gentzler and Don Keene

Focusing 2020

Barton W. Stone (one of our forefathers in the Restoration Movement - churches of Christ, etc.) had strong convictions about the unity mentioned in scripture. So much so that he encouraged everyone to "let unity be our polar star".

Our Polar Star

Out of the Trenches

Christmas time is always full of expectations… it always has been. But all-too-often we get stuck in the traps of either expecting too much of Christmas or not enough of Christ.

In the Air There's a Feeling of Christmas

In the song “Silver Bells” there is a line that says, “City sidewalks, busy sidewalks.” This seems to be a pretty accurate picture of our world during this season. But God steps into our story with the glory of his presence wrapped in swaddling cloth. And "God with us" changes our whole story.

City sidewalks, busy sidewalks

Sunday morning lesson by Rusty Sherry, Adam Marshall, and Mitch Wiggains. During this service we officially install 4 new elders for Western Heights.

Recognizing Our Elders

We are in the process of recognizing additional elders to work with our congregation. And this begs the question of why. Why is it important to have elders? Join us Sunday as we look at a story in Acts 15 where elders were needed to solve a conflict.

Why Are Elders Important?

We believe the Good News is worth sharing, so here is a collection of the sermons preached on Sunday mornings.
