A spiritual formation focus has been emerging at Highland for many years. This intentional emphasis on participating in God's transforming work is at the heart of discipleship. Jesus calls us to a discipleship that lives with the expectation of changes of the heart; a discipleship not lived apart from but within the world releasing the kingdom from within; and a discipleship that transforms us into the image of Jesus. Every individual, and everything we do, is called into this process of spiritual formation.
Spiritual formation is an intentional life-long process of being conformed to the image of Christ for the sake of others.
