Highland Park Baptist Church, once the largest congregation in Chattanooga with some 57,000 members, will become Church of the Highlands as it holds its first services on Sunday at Camp Joy, property the church has owned since 1946.
"It's a replanting more than a relocation," says first-year pastor Dr. Jeremy Roberts. "We're adopting a more progressive philosophy of ministry. We're really able to have a fresh start in our church life as a result of this movement of the Lord."
Highland Park Baptist, under longtime pastor Dr. Lee Roberson, began Tennessee Temple University, Union Gospel Mission and WDYN radio. Roberson retired in the 1980s.
As of last fall, the church attracted some 370 people in worship attendance.
On Sunday, Church of the Highlands will hold a "classic" service at 9:15 a.m. and a contemporary service at 10:45 a.m., both in the Camp Joy cafeteria
