Share Your Faith Workshop @ HFBC
Saturday September 28th

One of the main reasons believers don’t share their faith is that they feel ill-prepared. Through the Share Your Faith Workshop, the hand becomes a simple memory tool you can use to share the Gospel story. This workshop provides the basics of sharing the Gospel as well as practical application.




Let's Serve Together!

To learn more about FLOURISH, RSVP to our informational meeting Sunday, September 8th and Sep 29th below.

Ignite the Fire!

Wherever you are in your journey, the God of the universe is excited to help you take the next step. Join together with other men for an action-packed time of adventure, inspiration, and connection at the beautiful Pineywoods Retreat Center located in Woodlake, TX – about two hours north of Houston. This retreat is for men 18 years and older from any of our campuses – and guests, too.
The theme this year is “Ignite the Fire!” and we’ll unpack it together in three keynote sessions and some impactful Ignite Group sessions where men of all ages connect together.
Our retreat speaker for the weekend will be Kenny Luck, the Pastor at Crossline Church in Laguna Hills, CA.
The prayer is that every man will discover:
  • a refined vision for his life
  • a restored commitment to courageous living
  • a renewed connection with each other
  • a set of practical tools to journey ahead
