Dr. Billy Graham once told Larry King that he hoped he would one day hear from Jesus "Well done thy good and faithful servant." However, in humility he was afraid he might not hear Him say these words. I bet he just did.

First Baptist Gulf Shores Christmas Music Celebration-Dec. 4th, 10:45. It will be incredible. Jim VanMatre is a Master Worship leader.

Enjoying awesome VBS at FBC Gulf Shores. Pat Lee and FBGS ministerial team are awesome!

The Father provides HOPE when we Humble ourselves, Obey what Jesus said, Pray (by speaking and listening) and Evangelize the lost.

"If we lose the South, then we eventually lose nearly everything." Hope Chuck Kelley's quote from 3/17 "Alabama Baptist" wakes us up.

Zacharias’ doubts shut his mouth. Mary’s faith set her future. Our challenge: Believe and be God’s voice.

Trump at debate: "I never forgive." Jesus: "If you won't forgive others...your Father won't forgive you." Truth: "Leaders learn to forgive."

3/2/15 IMB video showed Ukraine people "Standing on their Knees" for 365 days. 10/7 is day 585. Still "Standing"!

English and Russian versions of MAL. Awesome work by the translators.

God has done an amazing work here in Kharkiv Ukraine. Many followed Jesus. More Abundant Life is now published in Russian. God is glorified.

It is good to hear the voice of God. He spoke at the Georgia Baptist conference yesterday and He will speak at Bethany in Andalusia today.

[Lawrence Phipps @lawrencephipps]

Looking forward to speaking at GA Baptists SS/Small Groups mtg. Aug. 29. See http://t.co/BFL8zaZm24 for details.

Great interim start at Bethany in Andalusia. Super Staff; awesome Church. Props to Josh Wilson for five power-filled years of leadership.

Great Men’s Weekend at Jefferson BC, Baton Rouge. Awesome leaders, great Pastor (Dr. David Goza), incredible church.

[Lawrence Phipps @lawrencephipps]

Pumped about preaching in “Vertical” at FBC Gulf Shores 3/1. Teaching TEAMS at 4. Great to see churches re-building small groups ministries!

[Lawrence Phipps @lawrencephipps]

Looking forward to training “Fishers” at South Luverne Baptist this Sun.-Tues. Encouraging to see churches improving their Acts 1:8 witness.

[Lawrence Phipps @lawrencephipps]

From the Presidency to the Patriots, winning at all costs seems prevalent. Now, if we could just translate that mindset to the church...

[Lawrence Phipps @lawrencephipps]

Be encouraged when you see churches placing reaching above ritual. We can show that JESUS put love over legalism. HE alone wins over jihad.

@drjvan7 @lawrencephipps Glad to be here
