At the SBCAM, a man came up to introduce himself. It was @evanlenow, the new President of the @ERLC! I didn't recognize him and he could've avoided me as one who's called for the end of the ERLC. But he chose to initiate a conversation. That speaks volumes about his character! I was encouraged by the conversation and have good hope that the ERLC will gain our trust under Evan's leadership.

Pastors, we are simply to sow the seed of God’s Word in faithfulness. We neither get blame for those who don’t receive the Word nor credit for those who do. Faithfulness is our calling and the results belong solely to the sovereign work of God!

A church shouldn’t baptize anyone that it doesn’t take into membership in order to make them a disciple of Jesus Christ by teaching them to obey all the He commanded.

I could not be more thrilled that @WillyRice was elected President of the SBC. There couldn’t be a better man for this hour in SBC life!

Our children’s ministry had a “get to know your pastor” night and tonight was my week to be interviewed. One kid asked, “how many people have you baptized as a pastor?” I responded, “I don’t know, easily hundreds.” Another kid blurted out, “Hundreds? But you’re only 80!”

🚨PRIDE MONTH🚨 The Texas Rangers are the ONLY MLB team not acknowledging “Pride Month.” The Rangers are again not hosting an LGBT night event. Instead, on June 18, they will be hosting a Faith and Family Night. According to their website, the event will feature “personal testimonies from Rangers players Wyatt Langford, Josh Jung, Cody Bradford, Jacob Latz, Jalen Beeks, and others, sharing how faith impacts their lives both on and off the field.”

Every church must beware of catering its message or its ministries to the shallow and weed filled soils that Jesus warned about in Matthew 13. May our churches never be a place where those actually outside the Kingdom of God are made to feel like they are safely in it.

We were told that Madison would never talk. Now she sings worship songs to the top of her voice.
Madison is outside waiting for a friend to pick her up. Her sweet voice is drifting in as she’s singing with all the gusto the song deserves. I’m reminded of how blessed we are as she had very little chance of speech. The surgery to give her any hope resulted in 30days 1/3

A coffee truck and a snow cone truck were set up for our church’s picnic celebration. Take a look at the names of the companies. I promise it was a complete coincidence!

FBC Lindale had a great morning of worship celebrating our 150th anniversary. @ColeHefnerTX joined us and presented an official recognition from @GregAbbott_TX, a resolution by Cole and @SenBryanHughes honoring FBC, and a Texas flag flown over the Texas State Capitol.

When John Bunyan read 1 John 4:17, he wrote that God was effectively saying: “Sinner, thou thinkest that because of thy sins I cannot save the soul, but behold my Son is by me, and upon him I look, and not on thee, and will deal with thee according as I am pleased with him.”

In sexuality, God designed by nature for men to desire women and women to desire men. In the expression of sexuality, God designed by order for the union of one man to one woman in marriage.
