People Who Make a Difference

The elders here at First Baptist Church have been reading through the classic missionary book, Hudson Taylor's Spiritual Secret. We have been moved by Taylor's passion for God and his heart for China. That, coupled with this weekend's missions conference - the theme of which is "The Challenge of a World in Crisis" - brought to mind a 7-minute video clip of John Piper that every Christian teenager, senior, and everyone in between should watch. Listen carefully to this passionate plea. Don't waste your life. Be a person who makes a difference in the lives of those that you can impact for God's glory.

  2. "If there be any one point in which the Christian church ought to keep its fervor at a white heat, it is concerning missions. If there be anything about which we cannot tolerate lukewarmness, it is the matter of sending the gospel to a dying world...every Christian is either a missionary or an imposter."
    -Charles Spurgeon
