Mission Statement

Higher Dimension is dedicated to bringing men, women, and children into the family of God, developing Disciples of Christ by equipping saints for Church service and taking missions to the world while demonstrating love toward God and our Fellowman.

  Vision Statement

At Higher "D" our vision is to create a Spirit-Filled environment where believers can acquire the necessary stills, develop the Right attitude, and learn Godly wisdom. We recognize that in the Kingdom of God we are nascent saints. We have not arrived to our utopia, but like the Apostle Paul in Phillipians 3:14, we are pressing toward our higher calling. We believe God will continue to compel his saints to go a dimension higher in prayer, faith, giving, worship, service and praise.

  About Pastor Johnson

Pastor Terrance H. Johnson

A native Houstonian, Pastor Johnson is known throughout the country as a premier preacher with extraordinary gifts in biblical exposition, interpretation and proclamation. He is a graduate of American Baptist College in Nashville, TN where he received a Bachelor of Arts in Bible and Sociology. He is currently matriculating at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary pursuing a Masters of Divinity.

In early 1997, Pastor Johnson received a call from God to organize Higher Dimension Church. April 4, 1999, Higher D and its 29 founding members held its first worship service. Over 500 individuals were present to witness this monumental celebration. God has continued to enlarge Higher Ds territory at a phenomenal rate. Currently, a membership of over 9,000 saints gather each Sunday to worship. In December 1999, the church purchased 6.64 acres of land to erect a $4 million dollar edifice. One year later, Higher D burned the mortgage for the land. Under Pastor Johnson's leadership, Higher Dimension has continued to be an awesome display of what the Lord can do through consistent commitment, courage and continued prayer.

Houston recognizes Pastor Johnson as one of its top leaders. His thrust as a community pioneer in the redevelopment of impoverished areas is geared to meet the spiritual, social, physical and economic needs of its people.
