Who is your next?

We preached a series called NEXT in #LHStudents.  The first sermon during the NEXT series was - WHO IS YOUR NEXT?

We asked the question who is next for you to reach out too?  Who has God put in your path or on your heart that you need to share Christ with this year?  We were all someone's next may we now find out next.  

Hear this story of a girl who saw her NEXT give her life to Christ the week after we preached this sermon.

THE CHALLENGE TO BAPTIZE 12 STUDENTS IN 2014. YOU IN?

There are 46000+ South Baptist Churches in the U.S. 

Out of the 46,000 churches we have on average been baptizing the past few years 75,000+ students.  That is 1.6 students a church is being baptized a year. 

I want to throw the challenge out there that IN THE YEAR 2014 may ALL SBC CHURCHES take on a 12 a year challenge. 

The 12 A YEAR CHALLENGE IS SIMPLE THIS:

That every church in the Southern Baptist Convention commits to winning one teenager a month to the Lord then following up with that teenager in seeing them get baptized and plugged into their church. 

IF WE DO THIS:

We will baptize 552,000 students and over ½ a million teenagers will have a different story than they had in 2013.  It will be a story of life change. 

WILL YOU TAKE THE CHALLENGE? 

Over the years I have written a few post about this:
