I have spent the last few months talking and interviewing with people about helping High Point Church get to the next level. It is kind of funny for me because I live in a reality that doesn't exist. People come and see High Point and they see what is. They look around and see the kids that are their and see what the set looks like and they will see who is volunteering and they see all that we are. The funny thing when I talk with them is that I don't see that. I know that sounds so strange but it is true.
When I see High Point I don't see what is because what is has never been my reality. When it was Elizabeth and I and we had no graphics, no Courtney, no Theatre and not even a name I saw a picture that looked similar to what we have now 3.5 yrs later. I would talk to people all the time like we had a church of a couple hundred with a staff and awesome worship and engaging connection groups. People who could see what I saw jumped on board. People who couldn't see it... never called me back. That was years ago but it hasn't changed for me. Every time I walk into High Point now I see what Could Be and what Should Be.
Do you want to see what I see?
I see a section of Youth that worships God with all of their heart in the front of the church. I see two services that are full to the gills with people and we have to have to ask regular attenders to give up their seat for new visitors. I see connection groups all over this city full of people who are growing in their relationship with God. I see us in a building that gives us ample room for our Kids to be transformed with as much room as they need. I see Lost people found. Depressed people set free. Broken Homes restored. Floundering people Living Their Potential!
Do you See what I See? We are on the verge of the next level of High Point Church. We are about to go to the preferred future that I SEE. Can you see it? As I have talked with a bunch of people these last few months most haven't seen it. But the ones that have... OHHHBOOOOYYY! They are going to see God do something Great in this place for this City! We are going to see an amazing future at High Point. What I See, I am convinced is just around the corner.
