The High Place

Throughout the Bible, high places were places of worship. While some were built to honor God, many became places where people slowly drifted away from Him, replacing wholehearted devotion with compromise. Today, those high places are no longer built from stone, but they still exist. They take the form of pride, fear, success, relationships, comfort, control, and anything else we allow to occupy the place that belongs to God alone.

In The High Place: Tearing Down What Competes with God, Tara Jordan takes readers on a powerful journey through Scripture, revealing how the ancient high places of Israel mirror the hidden idols that still compete for our hearts today. With biblical teaching, personal reflection, and practical application, this book gently challenges readers to examine what they have unknowingly elevated above Christ and discover the freedom that comes from complete surrender.

Whether you've been walking with God for decades or are longing for a deeper relationship with Him, this book will encourage you to move beyond surface-level faith and into wholehearted devotion, because God has never desired a part of your heart. He desires all of it. The time has come to tear down every high place and allow Christ to take His rightful place above everything else.
