To God be the Glory!

Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the Lord be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of His servant. Psalm 35:27


We want to thank the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ for His matchless love and mercy. He has used His people to bless our lives and we're eternally indebted to Him and His service.

We appreciate your prayers and thank God for using you to intercede for us as we traveled the roads of Louisiana and Mississippi sharing the Gospel of the kingdom. My brother Jeremy and his family housed us for over a week, and it was a treat to spend time with him and his precious family. They sacrificed their time and treasures to take care of us while we were with them. We also were encouraged and equipped to press on in our journey as we worshipped our King with both Richardson Baptist Church in Franklinton, La. and Ben's Ford Baptist Church in Bogalusa, La. It was a privilege to preach in the pulpit of both the churches and a very high honor to stand before these two great congregations. Bro. Jimmy and Bro. Lynn are two men of God that He is using in a significant way to impact His kingdom and reach people for His glory. Each of these churches was used by the Lord to do exceedingly above and beyond all that we could imagine or ever ask, in every aspect, as He met our needs through them. It is a beautiful thing to see Jesus invade people with His grace and free them from the lies of this world! We pray that we were as much as a blessing to them as they were to us.

This past Sunday I preached at Bethany Baptist Church in Whynot, Ms. Bro. Marvin went on trip down to Louisiana to spend a week in fellowship with a good pastor friend of his, Bro. Mardy Guidry, in Lockport, La. while they seek God's face for revival. Some of you remember Bro. Malcom Ellis. His pastor from Texas is preaching for Bro. Mardy this week and they invited momma and Bro. Marvin to come stay with them for a couple of days. I always find it a joy to be with the folk at Bethany for they are like family.

Sunday night, the 16th, at 6pm. we'll be in Wiggins, Ms. at Berean Baptist Church with Bro. Leonard Smith. Berean Baptist is on Hwy. 49 in Wiggins. This will be our first time to open the Word of God together so pray that the Lord will use us to raise up some champions for the truth while we're with them. Sunday, the 30th, we'll be with Pleasant Hill Baptist Church in Quitman, Ms. Bro. Robert has invited me to fill the pulpit for him while he is out. This is also the church that Chris and Elizabeth serve. We are looking ahead and anticipating a great day in the Lord in both of these churches.

Thanks again for going before the Most High God, in the beauty of holiness, and asking Him to use all of us to be dangerously strong for His truth upon the earth. All men are guilty of rebellion toward Jesus until otherwise proven innocent. The fields are white but the laborers are few. Ask God to use you in His harvest. Ask Him to use our new book, (which is now out) Magnify the Lord, to launch out saints into His work, and also to lovingly introduce sinners to the Lord of glory.

Go Rescue the Perishing,

If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death, and those that are ready to be slain; [12] If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not He that pondereth the heart consider it? and He that keepeth thy soul, doth not He know it? and shall not He render to every man according to his works? Proverbs 24:11-12
