The Heights Church - Sermons

When discipleship feels like a fight, it’s because it is one. You’re in a spiritual war—even if you don’t see it. This week, we begin by learning to wake up to the war and stand strong in God’s strength.

To follow Jesus is to reorient your entire life around him. It’s not self-love, absolute freedom, or chasing desires—it’s self-denial, binding commitment, and daily surrender. He invites us not just to believe, but to walk closely with him into true abundance.

This week, ministry apprentices Will Read talks about the why and how behind choosing to turn to Jesus.

In this engaging conversation, Ben Virgo, a speaker at The Heights Church, explores the profound grace of God through Jesus Christ. He discusses Romans 5:1-11, emphasizing justification by faith and the peace that comes from a relationship with God. Ben reflects on John Wesley's transformative encounter with grace, the historical consequences of idol worship in Israel, and how faith leads to true fulfillment. He encourages listeners to seek purpose and joy through personal connections with Jesus, highlighting the essential nature of faith in everyday life.

We all feel the ache of a broken world. Genesis 3 shows us why—and more importantly, how God responds. Only Christianity gives us both raw honesty and real hope: Jesus pursues us, promises victory, and provides covering through the cross.

Sin isn’t just breaking rules—it’s rejecting God’s design for life. This week, we explore how deception, desire, and destructive opportunity unravel the beauty of God’s plan and why we need something greater to restore us.

God designed you for joy, relationship, purpose, and dependence on Him. This week, we’ll dive into Genesis 1:26 and discover that true life is found living inside the beautiful design of our good and generous Creator.

Easter isn’t just a story — it’s a personal invitation. In Acts 9, Saul moves from thinking the resurrection is ridiculous to realizing it’s real. Jesus meets us in our pain, sends us companions, and calls us to new life. Conversion is possible.

In Acts 8, we meet two men on different journeys who model one thing: simple obedience to Jesus. Whether you’re a seasoned disciple or brand new in faith, God’s invitation is the same — hear Him, trust Him, and follow.

In Acts 8, we see that everywhere Jesus goes, joy follows. This Sundays message unpacks how ordinary people bring revival to unlikely places.
