Life Classes BEGIN this Sunday at 9:00 AM

While preaching is central to the life of our church, it is not enough. We must also study the word together and learn to apply it to ourselves and one another. For these reasons, we offer opportunities for you to grow in your understanding of the word.

 Life Classes begin this Sunday at 9:00 AM, and they serve to equip you for life as a Christian in this world. We encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity and join us. This session, we are offering the following classes from January 28 to March 10:

• A Survey of the NT from Acts to Revelation (Livingston Room) | This class will explore the New Testament from Acts to Revelation under the theme of the king and his kingdom. This class will provide us with a general knowledge and understanding of the early church, important theological themes, and how it applies to our daily lives.
• Panorama General del NT: Hechos – Judas (East Training Room) | Una clase para equiparnos con un conocimiento general de los libros acerca de la Iglesia primitiva, explorando temas teológicos importantes y como impactan nuestras vidas diarias.
• Kids Life Class (Overflow Room/Old Mission Room) | 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”.
• Membership class (Old Library) | Our Meaningful Membership Class is offered on Sunday mornings as well.

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.

On-Call Pastor
To better care for you, High Pointe, we have an “on-call” pastor available for emergencies after office hours and on weekends. To reach the on-call pastor, call 512-837-7725, extension 1.
