Jodi and I have enjoyed getting to know @JaredcWellman in the past several years and we have prayed consistenly for him as he has provided leadership in the convention.

I am hopeful for the future of the SBC as I’ve gotten to know young pastors like him.

[Morris H. Chapman @morriscode21]

@bartbarber @NOBTS @JamieKDew Praying for you and NOBTS. I’m in Fort Worth at our alma mater today. Preach the word, Dr. Barber.

[Morris H. Chapman @morriscode21]

I covet your prayers today. 

Will you join me in the prayer God has given me from Col. 3:16?

“Let the Word of Christ dwell in us richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in our hearts to God.”

[Southwestern Seminary @SWBTS]

We are excited to hear from @morriscode21 this morning in #SWBTSChapel. Are you making plans to join us?

“Until I come, DEVOTE YOURSELF to the PUBLIC READING OF SCRIPTURE, to PREACHING and to TEACHING.”

1 Timothy 4:13

[Morris H. Chapman @morriscode21]

Will you pray for me as I prepare to preach tomorrow at @SWBTS? Pray also for the SWBTS family that God will prepare hearts and minds for a challenge from God’s Word:

“As it is written: ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’”

[Morris H. Chapman @morriscode21]

@OSHawkins @SWBTS Thank you Dr. Hawkins. It will be good to be back home on seminary hill. It’s been too long. Jodi and I are praying for you, @DannyPRoberts, and @davidsdockery as you lead our alma mater.

[Morris H. Chapman @morriscode21]

Jodi and I are praying for Dr. Barber and FBC Farmersville’s ministry among the Bayot people of Senegal.

[Bart Barber @bartbarber]

I'm leaving today for Senegal. I make no promises about what/when/where I will be posting. This month marks a decade that @fbcfarmersville has been at work alongside @IMB_SBC in the Casamance region among the Bayot people.

[Morris H. Chapman @morriscode21]

Praise God that NO Southern Baptist seminary graduate is indebted because of their ministry training at Southern Baptist seminaries.

And we can all thank the @SBCCP .

Without the Cooperative Program, it is impossible to estimate the burden of debt our graduates would carry.

[Tennessean @Tennessean]

About 32% of Tennessee borrowers owe less than $10,000, according to federal data. Another 20% owe $10,000-$20,000 in student debt. https://t.co/LI4zJndXDf

@tommelzoni @macbrunson Mac, an insightful analysis of one of many weaknesses among the brethren. God help us to preach His Word with power and let others see Jesus in us.

[Morris H. Chapman @morriscode21]

@BobMcCartney_ @BaptistBlogger Bob, thanks for your kind comments.
I periodically run across articles and
comments you have written and enjoy
them. I hope all is well with you.
It's apparent the church family loves
you and commends you. Blessings.

[Morris H. Chapman @morriscode21]

@MusingsOnChrist Thank you Dr. Yarnell.

Pastor Slade served us well. Pastor Wellman will lead with integrity.

[SBC Executive Committee @SBCExecComm]

Please join us in showing gratitude to @pastorrolland for his leadership as EC chairman over the last 2 years.

Thank you for your service to Southern Baptists!

[Morris H. Chapman @morriscode21]

@AdamGreenway Thank you Dr. Greenway for calling Southern Baptists to greater unity in the gospel. Jodi and I are proud Southwesterners.

[Morris H. Chapman @morriscode21]

Thank you for keeping Jodi before the Lord this week. Today, the doctors released her to come home. Her breathing has improved remarkably, and we anticipate a full recovery in the coming weeks.

Knowing of your steadfast intercession has strengthened our faith!

1 Thess. 5:16-18

[Morris H. Chapman @morriscode21]

I want to update everyone praying for us while Jodi is recovering. There’s been a marked improvement in her pulmonary function, and the doctors are encouraged.

We are still looking at a few more days and tests in the hospital. The Great Physician is our comfort!

Isaiah 42:5

[Morris H. Chapman @morriscode21]

Over the coming months I will pray intentionally and specifically that God will direct the path of our new Executive Committee presidential search team until they find the next leader for this critically important Kingdom assigment.

Proverbs 3:5-6

[Morris H. Chapman @morriscode21]

@RonaldLHarris Thanks Ron!

[Morris H. Chapman @morriscode21]

Today I have taken my bride of 58 years to receive medical treatment for complications arising from a chronic pulmonary irritation.

Jodi is the strongest woman I know and she’s doing great. Our doctors are very hopeful about this precautionary step.

Prayers appreciated.

[Morris H. Chapman @morriscode21]

@Pastoradron Thank you, Pastor Adron.
