My subject today is: “5 POWERFUL THINGS THAT HAPPEN WHEN YOUR BURDEN IGNITES YOUR VISION.” These things become evidence that something is happening in a special way. Obstacles are removed, and circumstances change. I cannot wait for you to hear me talk about this with you today.
But before I do, I want to share some personal things quickly with you. First, as many of you know, I have been spending most of my Sundays recently with the Grand Avenue Baptist Church in Fort Smith, Arkansas. I am still preaching away from this church on some of these Sundays and will do so a few times in the next few weeks. But this church in Fort Smith has just elected its Pastor Search Committee. Please pray that they quickly discover who God may be calling to their church. If you want to recommend a pastor to them, or if you are a pastor who wants someone to recommend you to this church, please visit their website at gabc.church/pastorsearch This is a great opportunity for someone to come and join them in their vision of reaching metro Fort Smith, Arkansas, America, and the World. Approximately 180,000 people are right here in this immediate region, so the need is great.
Next, later today, I will be flying to Birmingham, Alabama, to attend the graduation of one of my grandsons, Parker Floyd. Parker was a 7A All-State Football Linebacker, an All-Star Linebacker in Alabama, and was just named an “Academic All-American.” More than any of t these, he is a great young man with a passionate heart to follow Jesus as Lord.
Finally, regarding preaching away, this Thursday, May 21, I will be preaching the Commencement Message for the 150 graduates of Louisiana Baptist University and Seminary. This is a remarkable opportunity, so pray for me.
Now we are ready to get into the podcast. I am going to have you join me right now as I speak our subject today: 5 THINGS THAT HAPPEN WHEN YOUR BURDEN IGNITES YOUR VISION.
