Southern Baptists have always been a gospel people; God-willing, we always will be. The gospel is, as Paul said, “of first importance” (1 Corinthians 15:3). I pray that we will constantly and loudly and unashamedly talk about the gospel. Chief among my passions for the SBC at this time is that we reinforce our identity as a gospel people, putting the gospel above all.

Imagine if every member of your church could answer that question with the name of a person—a person they’re praying for and sharing the gospel with. Lead your church in this intentional personal evangelism effort.
Every believer has a role to play in reaching the world with the gospel. As a college student, you have a unique opportunity to commit your first two years after graduation to work somewhere strategic for God.

The Church is supposed to declare the diversity of the kingdom and reflect the diversity of the community. We are meant to be an undivided example in a divided world.
