I’d like to welcome Chris Hodges to digital publishing. Chris pastors Church of the Highlands a top-notch church in Birmingham, Alabama. While in college, I attended Church of the Highlands and became a part of the living legacy of the church. Highlands was born in 2001 and God has miraculously blessed the church with abundant spiritual and physical growth.

This past January, Chris cast vision for a new paradigm at Highlands—a focus on the inner-city of Birmingham. I believe God will continue to do wondrous things at Highlands and I am excited that more of my friends will hear first-hand the unique work that is happening there.

Chris is one of the finest church leaders in the world today! He takes no credit for the success of Highlands, but I believe the church wouldn’t be what it is today without a pastor who gets on his knees and humbly prays for Birmingham to come to Christ! May we all find inspiration in his words to help us reach people for Christ in our own cities. If you have a moment today, pray for Church of the Highlands, Chris Hodges, his team and the city of Birmingham.
