Outreach Events:

Higher Ground would love to be a part of your next outreach event. It is imperative that we "go into all the world and preach the good news." We do that through our Family Fun Fests and Movie Premiere Events as well as when we partner with churches and other groups to show love to a specific community. Our partnership role has been everything from leading craft times and songs with kids to doing mini-concerts during carnivals to doing a full concert to end a great day of fun.

Retreats/Conferences/Camps:

The ministry of Higher Ground is a great addition to any marriage retreat, ladies' or men's retreat or conference, family camp, or pastor's conference.  Robbie and/or Denise will work with your event organizer to create Christ-focused worship times, focused sessions on marriage and family, as well as a concert set if desired.  Pulling from Higher Ground's own repertoire, special request cover songs, and praise and worship music, they strive to create an atmosphere where Christ is exalted and the people are edified and prepared to receive God's Word.  Speaking topics for sessions include the following:  "A Biblical View of Parenting," "Seeking Him in the Silence," and "Press On with Passion."

Parenting Seminars:

Are you looking for an innovative way to reach out to young families in your community?  Offer a quality Christian parenting seminar to young families in the church and community from a licensed therapist.  Denise earned her Master’s in Social Work in 1999, has taught many parenting classes for young parents, and was a child and family therapist for 5 years.  Robbie's background as an educator and technology trainer for over sixteen years brings a different viewpoint. Together they bring a wealth of professional and personal experience to the seminar, but most of all, they bring a new understanding of what God’s Word says about parenting. "Teaching Families how to S-S-Stick Together in Today's World using Today's Tools: Helping family members feel Safe with each other, Spend time being real, and Speak each other's language in a meaningful way."

The internet is a wonderful tool that can be used to bring families closer together, and Robbie knows just how to do it.
