We are an interdenominational and multinational community of imperfect people who celebrate the surprising grace of God. Whether you come from a background of faith or not; whether you come with a particular belief system or not; whatever your spiritual journey or ethnicity or culture or marital status; whatever your successes or accomplishments, struggles or failures, everybody’s welcome here.
In this community we don’t judge one another because we’ve all got our stuff. All of us in this community have fallen short in one way or another, so there’s forgiveness for everybody. In this community we don’t have to hide, no pretenses, no reputation building, no need to impress anybody because we are all just sinners, saved and living by grace.
We believe God is real and active, and that through Jesus there is no problem that cannot be solved, no obstacle that cannot be overcome, and no limit to the joy that can be experienced in life. We believe that with God anything’s possible!
Our Ministry Leaders
About David Chrane
David Chrane loves Jesus, Donjalea, Kellen, Asher, and Rowan. He loves leading the Lake Highlands Church in praise and is blessed each week to be able to work with the many gifted musicians and artists in this community of faith.
He has a background in the arts (BA/design, ACU) and theology (MS/theology, ACU) and loves it when these expressions of worship come together in surprising and authentic ways.
David owns many nice suits and ties from his years working with Republicans and Democrats in the Texas Legislature and now enjoys coming to work in Birkenstocks and jeans.
About Donjalea Chrane
Donjalea Chrane is passionate about church. Not Sunday mornings sitting in a hard pew looking at the back of someone’s head, but real church, in real homes, with real, broken, imperfect, powerful people. Since 1999, she has helped equip Lifegroup leaders and members to function and minister in the power of God’s Spirit.
Donjalea has a BA in Theatre and Voice from ACU and is pursuing a Masters Degree in Biblical Theology from Regent College. A Dallas actor, Donjalea has played every shrew, witch and prostitute in the Shakespearean canon and insists it’s not type-casting.
She and David have been married since 1994 and they have three beautiful and perfect children.
