The Southern Baptist Convention Annual Meeting Continues

SBC Tues Night-BlogThe Southern Baptist Convention Annual Meeting continues today. If you are unable to be with us in Columbus, watch live at sbcannualmeeting.net or delayed at 7:30 p.m. CST on DayStar Television Network.

Tuesday Recap

Yesterday, I was honored to be nominated and re-elected to serve as President of the Southern Baptist Convention for another year. Serving this past year has been an honor and privilege, and I look forward to the next year as we continue to ask God for the next Great Awakening in America and to reach the world for Christ.

Last night was a powerful time of prayer together. Thousands filled the room and we cried out to the Lord together for unity, persecuted Christians, the next Great Awakening, and to reach the world for Christ. I called upon pastors to devote an entire service to prayer, praying with our churches for these things and more. Our order of service from last night can be used as a tool to inspire your own prayer service.
