A Life of Eternal Impact
Highlands College
Grow exists to help churches break growth barriers that leaders encounter on their journey to reach more people. Churches can and should only grow at the pace of their leaders’ growth. That need is what birthed the vision of Highlands College. Founded in 2011, Highlands College is designed to fulfill Jesus’s charge in Luke 10:2:
“The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”
To put it simply, Highlands College was built for you - where leaders are holistically developed with the spiritual depth and hands-on training they need to be able to plug into your team and make an impact from day one.

Frequently Asked Questions
ETERNAL IMPACT CAMPAIGN
1. What is the Eternal Impact Campaign?
At Highlands College, we believe in launching ministry leaders, debt-free, into the harvest field. The Eternal Impact Campaign was created as a way to accomplish this vision. This multi-phased, comprehensive campaign has two priorities: transform the current Church of the Highlands Grandview campus into the new Highlands College campus and fund 1000 Endowed Student Scholarships. We are currently in Phase I with the goals being to remodel the existing Grandview facility and fund 500 endowed tuition scholarships.
2. Can my church fund an Endowed Student Scholarship at Highlands College?
Yes! When your church funds an Endowed Student Scholarship at Highlands College, you will have the opportunity to send a student from your church to receive that funded tuition scholarship.
3. Who benefits from gifts made to Highlands College?
Current and incoming students receive anonymous scholarships through contributions made to the Maxwell Circle. Future students will benefit from contributions made to the Eternal Impact Campaign, which will help to fund scholarships until Jesus comes back.
4. How can I give?
1. If you would like to invest in the Eternal Impact Campaign, we have some tangible ways you can do that. Through your missions giving, you can contribute to a general scholarship fund which is called The Maxwell Circle. You can fund an annual scholarship for a student, or you can endow a seat which will fund tuition for one student annually, in perpetuity. You can also make an unrestricted gift to the campaign, and your contributions will be used to fund the overall vision of the college.
