Highlands Church Sermon of the Week

It's The End Of The World | 1 Peter 3 | Ps. Joe Aronson

What if the most important truth about your life… is the one we forget the most? The Bible tells us that nothing in all creation can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. But for many of us, God’s love has become something we assume rather than something we truly experience. In this message, we explore what Scripture reveals about the uncontainable love of God — a love that is wide eno...

In a world filled with anxiety, uncertainty, and constant noise, many people feel like something essential is missing. Despite all the progress and advancement of modern life, the human heart still longs for something deeper—peace. In this message, Lead Pastor David Johnson explores Philippians 4:6–9 and the biblical idea of shalom—a peace that goes far beyond the absence of conflict. It’s a peace...

Following Jesus Together | 1 Corinthians 12:12–20 What does it actually mean to be the church? In a world that keeps telling us to build our lives around ourselves, the way of Jesus calls us into something radically different—a shared life, a shared identity, a shared mission. In this message, Following Jesus Together, we look at how Scripture defines the church—not as a place we attend, but as a...

Why Would God Die? | Romans 3 | Ps. Trenton Mueller

Good Friday 2026 | The Weight Of His Cross

Easter 2026 — This Includes You 📍 Highlands Church HE IS RISEN. This Easter message walks through the greatest story ever told—the death and resurrection of Jesus—and what it actually means… not just historically, but personally. Because the truth is… Easter isn’t just something we observe once a year. It’s not just a story for someone else. This includes you. In this message, we explore: Why Jes...

What happens after salvation? For many, following Jesus can feel like the finish line—like we’ve been saved, forgiven, and now we’re just waiting for heaven. But Bible paints a different picture. Salvation isn’t the end of the story… it’s the beginning of a new one. In this message, we walk through Ephesians 2:8–10 and 2 Corinthians 5 to discover a powerful truth: you weren’t just saved from somet...

What if doing the right thing… still isn’t enough? In this message, we continue exploring life on the other side of salvation—what it actually looks like to live as people who have been changed by Jesus. Because while God saved us to do good work, the way we do that work matters just as much as the work itself. Too often, we pursue what’s good… in ways that aren’t good. We chase the right outcomes...

The Middle Of The Mission | Matthew 28 | Ps. Trenton Mueller

What if your story didn’t start when you were born… What if it started before the world even existed? In this opening message from our new series through the book of Ephesians, we look at one of the most powerful truths in all of scripture—that God chose you, loved you, and made a plan for your life before creation itself. This isn’t random. This isn’t reactive. This is intentional, personal, and...

What if God never intended your faith to stay shallow? In week two of our series through Ephesians, we explore Paul’s powerful prayer in Ephesians 1:15-23 and discover God’s invitation to go deeper with Him. Beyond surface-level religion… beyond routine… beyond comfort… God is calling us into a living relationship marked by hope, identity, intimacy, and power through the Holy Spirit. In this messa...

Your past is real… but it is not final. In week three of our series through Ephesians, we walk through one of the most hope-filled passages in all of scripture: Ephesians 2:1-10. In this message, we discover the overwhelming mercy and grace of God that meets us in our brokenness and gives us brand new life through Jesus. No matter where you’ve been, what you’ve done, or what still tries to define...

In Week 4 of our Ephesians series, we explore one of the most powerful truths in the gospel: Jesus didn’t just come to forgive sin. He came to form a new family. In Ephesians 2:11-22, Paul reminds us that through the cross, Jesus broke down every wall that separated people from God and from one another. What was once divided has now been made one in Christ. No longer strangers. No longer outsiders...

What if the church isn’t Plan B? In Ephesians 3, Paul reveals one of the most breathtaking truths in all of Scripture: before the foundations of the world, God had a dream. A dream of one forever family united in Christ. And through Jesus, that dream has become reality. This week, we explore God’s eternal plan, the mystery revealed through Christ, and the incredible truth that every believer is pa...

At Highlands Church, we believe following Jesus isn’t just about what we believe — it’s about how we live. In this message, Taylor Schultz walks through Ephesians 4:1–6 and explores what it means to “walk worthy” of the calling God has placed on our lives. This sermon dives into: What it means to live a life worthy of God’s calling The biblical idea of “walking” as a lifestyle of following Jesus H...

Through Every Generation | Ephesians 3 | Ps. David Johnson

What happens after you become a Christian? For many people, salvation is viewed as the finish line—our sins are forgiven, heaven is secure, and now we simply wait. But that’s not the picture the Bible gives us. In Ephesians 4:7–16, the Apostle Paul reveals that salvation is actually the beginning of something much bigger. Jesus doesn’t simply rescue us from our past—He transforms us from the insid...

You say you’ve been saved… but have you actually left your old life behind? In this message from Ephesians 4:17–32, Pastor David Johnson explores what it really means to follow Jesus after salvation. While Christ completely forgives our sin and makes us new, many of us continue living with one foot in the past—held back by old habits, old identities, old wounds, and old ways of thinking. The Apost...
