Our History

“On a bare hill, raise a signal, cry aloud to them, wave the hand for them to enter…”Isaiah 13:2. The vision for HighRidge began with a dream given to HighRidge Lead Pastor, Jeff Klingenberg, one night in January 2000. In his dream, Jeff was seen planted on top of a bare hill calling out and waving in the people to enter, "Hear God’s Word and be saved!" 

HighRidge Church began as a replant of Benbrook Christian Fellowship. Benbrook Christian Fellowship began on the sofas of the Klingenberg’s living room in 1995. The Church grew quickly necessitating a relocating and revisioning that became HighRidge Church.

After several years of raising money, planning and constructing the new church building, HighRidge Church opened its doors for the very first time in October 2007. Once the new building was open, the worship center quickly filled with people hungry for God’s Word leading to HighRidge starting a second Sunday service to meet the growing need. The growth has continued requiring a third service on Saturday night.

Our Future

The hope and desire of HighRidge Church has not changed throughout the years. We continue to exist to strengthen people for life through the love and encouragement of Christ. As the chapters of our history continue to be written, we pray that God allows us opportunities to further His Kingdom by reaching people of all social, economic, and ethnic backgrounds. We desire to build up one another and serve the needs of those who attend our Church.
