Member Spotlight: The Suggs'

So it's given me a much deeper love for the Word, and it's given me a much

bigger desire to study the Word, to dive into theology, to seek out those

secret and amazing things of the Lord that He's hidden in His Word.

It's given me a much better desire to seek that out, and to find who He is, and to know Him, and

to truly know Him, and as Brandon loves to say, to behold your God, and to

really seek after that, and to try to do that as best I can.

So I think one of the best things that I've seen at Heritage that's unique from different churches that I've been

to, or different churches that I've just visited or been a part of, is that everything that we do is

completely grounded in the Word.

There's not one thing that I've seen that is outside of the Word, or something that I've seen that is just a

good thing to do, but is not technically biblical, but everything we do here is completely

grounded, and is completely found in the Word.

And everything that we do completely points to the Word, points to Christ.

And other churches all should point to Christ, but this is one of the ones that I've been to that really is

founded in the Word, and is truly just all completely biblical.

There's nothing that's outside of the Word.

I definitely agree with the grounding in Scripture.

That's something that you always touch on at other churches, but here, my

spiritual growth has been exponential.

I think part of it is being married to Him.

We're coming on a year of marriage, and so I've been in my Word so much more, and that growth is here.

But the preaching alone, I've never had preaching like it.

But I think more than that is just the fact that everyone here,

we're so different, and yet it's like we know everyone, and the family aspect of it,

we really are known here, and you can see that the relationships that are built are genuine,

and they're true, and you can feel the love of Christ.

It's not just like, oh yeah, we're friends, we're family, cool.

It's like, no, this is Christ's love for His church, and it's poured out from the people here.

And that's something that was very, not necessarily new, but

definitely refreshing coming here, and growing in this church community.

I think just the exposition of the Word is something that really stands out too.

Because other churches, you know, they have like topical preachers, or things where you just get like, you never know

exactly what's going to be preached that day.

You might have an idea just based off of the sermon series, or whatever.

But here you always know what you're going to be preaching next, because it's going to be the next verse.

And so that's one thing I've really loved about this church, is that there's never a wonder of what's going to happen, or what's

going to be preached.

Because you know, He's just, He's marching through the Word.

He's just preaching what the text says, and that alone.
