Join the HMC Bible Book Club! In an effort to encourage daily interaction with the scriptures we’ve started a Facebook group where we hope you will go to find motivation to do daily devotions, as well as opportunity to contribute to discussions about what you’re currently reading, and what has challenged you. Pastor Dave has committed to post to this group at least once a week and some good discussion is already happening. Please consider joining! Go to https://www.facebook.com/groups/HMCBBC/ to join. If you need a little help getting started, some guides are available in the foyer that will direct your reading.
