In 2025, The Hills is entering a year-long initiative we are calling "Together," in which we are asking our entire church family to be fully invested, "united in spirit," and "intent on one purpose" of seeking, pursuing, and embracing all that God would call us to be and do as His people and His church. We believe this year of shared prayer, commitment, growth, and sacrifice for the vision and mission God has prepared for us will lay an important foundation for the next five years as we move toward 2030. Every person who is part of The Hills family is invited to join us on this journey we are taking "together."
Take a few moments to hear from Pastor Jacob about the heart of this important time in the life of our church:

FOR HIS GLORY
FOR THE MISSION
Declare His glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all peoples!- 1 Chron. 16:24
Our prayer is that all we strive to do will ultimately be for no other goal than the glory of God and His renown in our church, in our community, and in the world. May we have surrendered hearts,
lives with kingdom priorities, and an unquestioning "yes on the table" with God.

"All this is from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation." - 2 For. 5:18
We want to live purposefully and intentionally - but not for ourselves or our own agendas. We must live for God's purposes and God's mission of reconciling the world through Jesus Christ and the good news of the Gospel. This will require living "sent" where we live, work, and play; generously funding the mission work, and collaborating for church planting efforts around the world.

FOR HIS CHURCH
FOR THE FUTURE
"Let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together... but encouraging one another." - Heb. 10:24-25
We believe that the church is the hope for the world because it is the body of Christ, the bearers of the gospel as the extension of His ministry in the world. Such a high value and commissioning by god demands that we as well make it a priority in our gathering together faithfully, growing together in groups, serving one another in ministry, and following godly visionary leadership.

"Now to Him who is able to do above and beyond all that we ask or think according to the power that works in us - to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen." - Eph. 3:20-21
We look forward into the future with hope because we believe God has great plans for His people who are dedicated to His mission in the world. We want to multiply campuses, leaders, groups, and everything that will bring Him glory in the ministry and work of the church.
