African American Pastor Meeting - 6.3.20

Barry Calhoun with IMB led our devotional time and prayer by drawing our attention to Habakkuk and challenging us to Move From Doubt to Faith by Looking to God, Listening for God and Believing in God. After brief comments by Dr. Richards addressing the current crisis in America and inviting the pastors to check out his statement on our website, we gave the bulk of our time to Dr. Mark Croston; National Director, Black Church Ministries with LifeWay Christian Resources. His topic was Who Are You Preaching To? And How Is Your Follow up? As much of preaching has now gone virtual, pastors have to adjust models and methods to adapt to a changing time. They must learn to preach beyond those who were in the pews. “Whoever is on your mind when you preach will determine how you preach”. Take a listen, we hope it is helpful to your ministry.
