The church consists of six sites: HTB Brompton Road, HTB Onslow Square (formerly St Paul's, Onslow Square), HTB Queen's Gate (formerly St Augustine's, South Kensington), HTB Courtfield Gardens (formerly St Jude's Church, Kensington – officially in the parish of St Mary of the Bolton's but part of HTB). It is also the home of the St Paul's Theological Centre, HTB St. Francis Dalgarno Way, and St Luke's Earls Court. It is where the Alpha Course was first developed.[2]
The church buildings accommodate courses, conferences, meetings, and ten services each Sunday. HTB's stated aims are to: "play our part in the evangelization of the nations, the revitalization of the church and the transformation of society."[3]
Nicky Gumbel took over as vicar of HTB from Sandy Millar in July 2005, followed by Archie Coates in September 2022. The associate vicar is Katherine Chow, who took over from Nicky Lee and Martyn Layzell.[4]
