HBA to Launch On-Line "Sermon Shop"

    Beginning February 1, HBA will be offering a new on-line service to pastors called "The Sermon Shop."   Pastors will be able to upload a text, topic, outline, or complete sermon manuscript and will have the opportunity to collaborate with and receive input from other pastors in HBA.  The goal is to share insights, helpful resources, application ideas, and illustrations.  This service will be similar to HBA's on-line "Sermon Space," which is devoted to collaborating on a particular text.  For more information or to sign up to participate, contact Jim Gatliff at 903.454.2690.
