Life Classes - Sunday 9:00 AM

Life Classes | Sundays at 9:00 AM
Life Classes are meant to equip High Pointe for life as a Christian. Though classes began a couple weeks ago, we encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity and join us. This session, we are offering the following classes:

• How People Change | This class will explore the biblical answer to why change is needed and how change actually happens. We will seek to answer the question: What does it take for lasting change to take root in your life? This class is for anyone who desires to change or who would like to help others through a process of change.
• Following Jesus: The Basics of Christianity | This class will cover some of the basics of Christianity, such as Bible reading, prayer, attending church, and walking in obedience. We will seek to answer the question: How do I live as a Christian? This class is designed for new Christians and those considering Christianity.
• Las Ultimas Cosas Primero (Escatologia) | Estaremos estudiando la Escatología, que es el estudio de los últimos tiempos, basados en las Escrituras. Estudiaremos como la escatología es algo que nos afecta personalmente y ahora. También presentaremos las diferentes posturas escatológicas para que podamos tener información concreta e imparcial de lo que cada postura expone.
• We also offer childcare and a Life class for Kids, K-5th grade, that uses The Gospel Project, a study that “helps kids dive deep into the big story of the Bible – God’s plan to rescue His people through His Son, Jesus Christ”.
• Our Meaningful Membership Class is offered on Sunday mornings as well.

Men's Ministry at High Pointe
At High Pointe, we desire to see all men have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and grow in that relationship in order to look more like Him. We desire to help men in that process and provide opportunities for discipleship. As Christians, we are called to be students of Christ and then to show our fruit of that salvation, which takes the help of a church community. As men of High Pointe, we desire to come along one another to encourage, pray, sharpen, and ultimately point each other to the beauty of a life conformed to the image of Christ. We endeavor to develop these brotherly relationships among the men of High Pointe.

Three Areas of Focus: (1) Men’s Events, (2) Discipleship Groups (DGroups), and 1:1 Discipleship
(Mentoring). You can check out the available DGroups by clicking HERE.

To receive information about Men’s Ministry at High Pointe, email men@highpointeaustin.org
or call the church office: 512-837-7725. Join us, men!
 
Sunday Rhythms at High Pointe

• Prayer Gathering (2nd and 4th Sundays at 5:00 PM) Sunday night prayer gatherings are our family nights. That’s when we not only pray for one another, our city, our state, our world, but we also learn about one another. Make every effort to join us as we pray together as a church.

• Children’s Catechism Class for 3 year olds – 5th Graders (2 and 4th Sundays at 5:00 PM) While parents are praying together, our children are learning God’s word and biblical truths through a question and answer method. To register for our CCC, click HERE.

• KidsPointe Sunday Mornings, During our Morning Worship Gathering! KidsPointe kids are studying The Gospel Story, which includes a detailed look at how each of the Bible stories, beginning in the Old Testament, connects to the gospel and to God’s larger plan of redemption. Each K-5th grader attending must be registered or complete a visitor slip at drop off. To serve in KidsPointe, please contact Erin Wyman.

 
Giving at High Pointe
God is generous, and so he calls us to be as well. What we do with what God has given us shows the world where our hearts are and helps proclaim the gospel. We want to glorify God in every area of our lives, including what we do with our finances. But as you may have noticed, we do not take up a collection on Sundays at High Pointe. Consequently, we’ve been receiving questions as to how to give. There are several ways you may give:
1. Offering Boxes in Auditorium – You may place your offering in an offering box.
2. Mail – You may mail your contribution to the church office.
3. Text/Online – You may give by texting 84321 (it will require a first-time setup).
4. Your Bank – You may give through your own bank via Bill Pay or ACH.

If you have any questions, go to this LINK. Our financial staff is also available to help or answer your questions. You may call the church office at 512-837-7725.
