would be honored to pray for you and encourage you. Maybe yesterday didn't go so great and the temptation to throw in the towel is strong...but it might not be time to do so, brother.
To lift Him up, to preach His name, and to invite souls to love Him and to follow Him is the highest, heavenliest privilege of human life.

The hardest thing I’ve ever done, but totally worth it. Thanks for trusting our team with
#sbcpc22
, Southern Baptists. It was a joy to make much of Jesus with you on Sunday and Monday, and I plead with you to stay, to endure, to persevere. It’s worth it.
I think pastors can be the worst listeners. We're so used to speaking, teaching, giving answers. We must learn to be quiet, quit being so verbal, learn to pay attention to what's going on, and listen.

The legacy of the SBC Pastors’ Conference:
It is my prayer that a conference designed to unify us around our call to proclaim Christ will not be derailed by divisive behavior but lead us to devotedly follow hard with Christ after the lost.

#sbcpc22
When we gather in Anaheim, we will have an opportunity to bless the pastors who came before us or the widows they left behind. But we don't have to wait until then:
In the midst of a very severe trial, their overflowing joy and their extreme poverty welled up in rich generosity. For I testify that they gave as much as they were able, and even beyond their ability...
2 Corinthians 8:2-4
The countdown is on!
We are 100 days out from the 2024 SBC Pastors’ Conference!
In the coming days/weeks, we’ll:
• Announce the speakers
• Release a new app
• Unveil a short series designed to give actionable tips on preaching
All of that can add a heavy burden to a busy season a lot of people find challenging (not to mention during a pandemic). If you need an ear, DM us. But if it's all just too much to bear, please don't hesitate to make use of
@NAMB_SBC
's Pastoral Care Line: 1-844-PASTOR1.

Thank you Southern Baptists for entrusting me with the opportunity to lead next year’s Pastors’ Conference. Above all, I covet your prayers as we prepare a conference that will make all Southern Baptists proud. Here is a few things to know about next year’s event
#sbc22
#sbcpc22
Hey pastor of an established church, reach out to church planters in your area. Take 'em out for coffee, hear their story, dream with them, pray together, and discover ways to help one another. Be their biggest Barnabas as y'all labor to advance the Kingdom in your town.
Pastors, get involved in
#churchplanting
. Over the last 10+ years I’ve gotten to know some AMAZING church planters through
@NAMB_SBC
@sendnetwork

Make plans join us Sun @ 4pm to Mon @ 9pm because our team of SBC pastors has worked hard finding great SBC preachers to lead us verse-by-verse through Colossians. If you'll be in and out, don't miss the vote (SBC pastors only) for next year's president @ 3:50pm on Mon.
