Christmas time is always full of expectations… it always has been. But all-too-often we get stuck in the traps of either expecting too much of Christmas or not enough of Christ.

In the song “Silver Bells” there is a line that says, “City sidewalks, busy sidewalks.” This seems to be a pretty accurate picture of our world during this season. But God steps into our story with the glory of his presence wrapped in swaddling cloth. And "God with us" changes our whole story.

Sunday morning lesson by Rusty Sherry, Adam Marshall, and Mitch Wiggains.

During this service we officially install 4 new elders for Western Heights.

We are in the process of recognizing additional elders to work with our congregation. And this begs the question of why. Why is it important to have elders? Join us Sunday as we look at a story in Acts 15 where elders were needed to solve a conflict.

Too many people consider the phrase "I'm praying for you" as an exit to the conversation rather than an invitation to join in the struggle. This Sunday, we will continue sermon series on encouragement with a look at prayer.

One of the best ways that we can encourage someone is to simply show up. This Sunday, we will be talking more about what that looks like, and why it is so powerful.

The Bible puts a strong emphasis on the practice of encouragement and so should we. According to scripture, to encourage is to motivate others in the direction of Jesus.

Sunday was the end of Daylight Saving Time. That means that you kinda get an extra hour... but for what? How are you going to use your time? Or maybe the better question is, how are you going to redeem the time that you have.

This is the last of the Lord's Supper series looking at a few questions about this meal that have caused division in the church over the years.
