It’s official MorganfieldFBC ended the year almost doubling our church goal and making history by collecting the largest @IMB_SBC Lottie Moon Offering in our church’s history. Plus ending the year over budget which means more money to the nations through our CP giving.
To date, Morganfield First Baptist has raised its second largest Lottie Moon Christmas Offering on record. Thank you church for your sacrificial giving so that those who have never heard may hear the good news of Jesus Christ.
Congratulations to my friend Jimmy Terrell and Countryside Baptist in Morganfield for being recognized as the Highest Cooperative Program giving per Capita of any church in Kentucky. I’m thankful for his sacrificial leadership to prioritize the nations in their giving.
My job as a preacher is not to be relevant, but to be BIBLICAL. The Bible will always be relevant, regardless if the culture likes it or not. A preachers job is not to give you good advice, but to help you fall in love with the Bible and help you to study the Bible for yourself.
You are only as successful as the people you surround yourself with. Are you surrounded by people pulling you away from Jesus, or people pointing you to Jesus?

Friend - when you and I act like we don’t need the church to follow Jesus faithfully; we demonstrate that actually we need Jesus and His bride more than ever.
