  A True Disciple Pastor’s Post for November 2024 Newsletter Oswald Chambers in his devotional entitled, My Utmost for His Highest writes, "A true disciple is one who has his new name written all over himself-interest, pride, and self-sufficiency have been completely erased." Pride is the sin of making "self" our god.”  A disciple is someone who learns from someone else.  Much like a student from a teacher or an apprentice learning a trade.  As a disciple of Christ we are to learn from Him.  This is accomplished by reading His word (The Bible) and applying it to our lives.  As you experience God throughout the month of November, make a conscious effort to learn from Christ.  Learn how to be humble, thankful, determined and loving towards others.  Make spending time with your heavenly Father a priority and make your focus to please Him and love others before meeting your needs first.  Our world is filled with enough people who claim to be a di...

  Saturday, October 27th at 6:00 PM Each year our church invites families from our community to stop by for some friendly faces and candy.  Tables will be set up in the Family Life Center (FLC) for children to walk by to get their treats. For Those Wishing To Participate: Dressing up and decorating your table is not a requirement to participate, but is always appreciated. As you can imagine, there is a large demand for candy as well. If you cannot attend but would like to donate candy, please bring it to the HPBC Bible Study Office when you come to church. If you would like to reserve a table please contact the church office office@homelandparkbc.org / (864) 296-9751.

  Hey everyone! As of now, we still have power at the church, so we're planning to hold our regular services. Bible study starts at 9:30 a.m., worship service at 10:30 a.m., and choir rehearsal at 4 p.m. If the internet is still down, we might not be able to stream the services. I know many of you, like Donna and me, still don't have power, and it'll be tough to make it, but I know that God will honor your efforts. In times like these, we need our church more than ever, and our church needs you for love, support, and prayer. See you Sunday! - Pastor James

  This Sunday, embark on a journey through the prophetic words of Malachi. In this timely book, God calls His people to return to Him, exposing the troubled areas of a world that has wandered astray. Join us as we discover the path back to God's heart. 

  Our church is pleased to offer a seminar to other local churches on how to establish a Church Safety Team. Church safety is everyone's responsibility, and it's unwise to assume it could never happen to us. Lt. Todd Caron is an expert at equipping churches for safety, and we're privileged to host this event. The seminar will be held on October 12th, from 10 AM to Noon in our sanctuary. It is free and open to any church that has or is considering starting a Safety Team. To register, please email tcaron@andersonsheriff.com
