Welcome to Highrock Online
We are a vibrant spiritual community that worships, serves, learns, and laughs together.
Do you want the good life? (Acts 14:21-28)
Who that you know is living the good life? What even is the good life?! Depending on how we answer those questions, we might be disheartened to hear Paul teach, over and over, that we *must* suffer to enter into the Kingdom of God.
Bottomless pit of misunderstanding (Acts 14:8-20)
In an epic case of mistaken identity, the people of Lystra believe Paul and Barnabas to be someone else - in this case, the Roman gods Zeus and Hermes!
When success looks a lot like failure (Acts 14:1-7)
What looks like failure in Iconium for Paul and Barnabas ends up as the first stage of success in the long run. Where do you experience opposition or apparent failure in your efforts to be faithful?
Family fights and when to walk away (Acts 13:44-52)
Like Paul's opponents, do we resist changes that bring in new folks or that change the look and feel of our familiar spaces? Do we push people away rather than stay involved in difficult but vital conversations?
Hurry up before it's too late! (Acts 13:26-43)
The law had been at the center of their faith for centuries but in Christ, Paul and Barnabas urged reliance not on religious rules, but on the gracious love of God.
Building bridges to common ground (Acts 13:13-25)
Building bridges across old divides is always challenging. Paul's approach can show us the way forward in today's divided world: start from common ground and build upon what others already believe.
Courage, conflict, and spiritual blindness (Acts 13:1-12)
The world's reliance on self-serving power is always going to see a Jesus-serving church as an imminent threat. Do we seek to speak and serve with the same courage and love?
Pride goeth before a fall (Acts 12:20-25)
Herod Agrippa was treated like a god, but was undeserving. Jesus deserved glory but came as a servant. Today's text is a reminder that humility leads to life and pride leads to death.
Pray like nobody's listening? (Acts 12:6-19)
Peter is miraculously freed from prison and his escape is so amazing that he doesn't believe it at first. Peter then attempts to rejoin believers who are praying for his release, and they can't believe it either!
Lord Jesus vs. King Herod (Acts 12:1-5)
It's easy to see Herod as a villain while remaining blind to the same temptations in ourselves. Rather than denying that we have these negative impulses, how do we consciously move toward Christ rather than Herod in us all?
What's in a Name? (Acts 11:19-30)
This is the first time that followers of Jesus are called "Christians". Whether or not this name was originally intended as an insult, it points to the goal of being like Christ.
Daily Devotional - May 21
Finding new friends among their "enemies" (Acts 8:5-17) Fleeing from Saul, Philip and the other believers find refuge in Samaria, a place of traditional hostility with the Jews. But instead of hostility, they receive a warm welcome...
Daily Devotional - May 20
Good news and bad news (Acts 8:1-4) In our own lives, might our fixation on bad news be blinding us to the good news into which God desires to lead us?
Daily Devotional - May 19
Stephen, a faithful witness to the very end (Acts 7:54-60) The word "martyr" means "witness". Are we ready to witness to what we have learned, seen, and experienced in Christ?
Daily Devotional - May 18
The good old days were never that good. (Acts 7:39-53) Good things, even great and holy things, can be turned into idols! Are there good things to which we cling? Are there things that once connected us to God that now stand in the way?
Daily Devotional - May 17
Stephen reminds his accusers about Moses, whom they also rejected (Acts 7:20-39) Could it be that they were once again rejecting the one whom God had raised to lead and save them?
Daily Devotional - May 7
Fearful crowds, shadows that heal the sick -- what is going on?! (Acts 5:12-16) Despite what the crowds hear and see, most of the people are afraid to join with the believers -- but why?
Daily Devotional - May 6
Are the temptations of money and image really that bad? (Acts 5:1-11) In Acts 5, we glimpse a darkness that threatens to undermine the life of the early church's aspirational covenant community.
Daily Devotional - May 5
God's great blessing was upon them all (Act 4:32-37) To be like the early church, we must consider how each of us can build a life of encouragement, trust, and the empowering presence of God's Spirit.
Daily Devotional - May 4
When life drives us to our knees, how should we pray -- and act?! (Acts 4:23-31) Could it be that our prayers lack power because we don't know how to pray or why we should pray?
Daily Devotional - May 3
The benefits of having been with Jesus (Acts 4:13-22) The good things that come from knowing Jesus must always point back to him. He can't be left out of the story - even if others demand it!
