Making A Connection

I’ve spent the last couple of days in Cleveland/Akron Ohio visiting and speaking to our PowerPoint call center. We partner with an outstanding ministry business named Infocision in receiving the hundreds of calls each day from the messages heard on radio and television. I was very impressed with the quality of the operation and the mission focus of this group. When people call in with a prayer need, a spiritual decision, or a request for teaching resources, like CDs, DVDs, and books, they are received by dedicated Christians who personally respond to each request. These “communicators” then let us know at PowerPoint and enable us to build a relationship with people who need on-going ministry. Scott Seal, Executive Director of PowerPoint, and Josh Graham, our Director of Operations, joined me for a great time of fellowship along with a book signing of my book Life According to Jesus. It was good to connect with the people who provide invaluable assistance to our ministry as they help us talk to people one on one. PowerPoint continues to grow and is making an impact for the Kingdom.

I spoke to the group regarding our commitment to proclaiming Christ and the Gospel and teaching the Word of God effectively. Please pray with us that we will be faithful and that God will give this outreach success while bearing much fruit. PowerPoint is so named from one of my life verses.

For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the POWER of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. Romans 1:16

The influence of Prestonwood all starts during our weekend services and then advances through our personal and cooperative witness. I can’t wait for the opportunity at both our campuses this Saturday and Sunday as together we fulfill the mission of the church.

“Our mission at Prestonwood Baptist Church is to glorify God by introducing Jesus Christ as Lord to as many people as possible and to develop them in Christian living using the most effective means to impact the world, making a positive difference in this generation.”
