“Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you” (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18).
As the SBCV approaches the 25th anniversary of our cooperative partnership for the Gospel, we have many reasons to pray with gratitude. On behalf of so many souls that you may not meet until we get to heaven, thank you for partnering together to reach across our communities, state, nation—and indeed, around the world. As we keep pressing on as ambassadors of Christ, let’s pray with gratitude, and let’s pray with dependency on the Lord, urgency in the mission, and unity as His people. The world needs Jesus, and we must tell them. The worlds need transformation, and Jesus changes lives. Let’s be the Church, boldly proclaiming Jesus is Lord, seeking His face in prayer, reaching our neighbors and the nations with the Good News!
Your brother in Christ,
BRIAN AUTRY
