Glory to God for souls saved, lives touched

“To God be the glory, great things He has done!” was sung by the SBTC Executive Board when the Crossover report was given during our meeting on Oct. 28. Over 500 people prayed to receive Christ on Tuesday night, Oct. 27 at a special outreach session of the Southern Baptists of Texas Convention annual meeting. These precious souls filled out decision cards, allowing them to be discipled by local churches. God’s grace was on display. God used many to make this possible. Southern Baptist churches in the Lubbock area, messengers and guests from all over Texas, the SBTC staff and thousands who were not present but prayed, were the human instruments.

I sensed the presence of the Spirit of God even before my plane landed. Throughout the entire time, a spirit of anticipation was in the air. The small amount of business was conducted in a Christ-honoring way. Great preaching, inspiring singing and heart-touching testimonies were abundant. Attendance was phenomenal.

I simply say, “Thank you.” Thank you to the Lord. Thank you to His fine people who serve Him. May God continue to smile upon the SBTC.
