I AM SECOND

When the I Am Second campaign rolled out last December, I was so happy to see the interest that it piqued. You couldn’t miss those black and white billboards, simple, with just a person’s face, the words I AM SECOND and iamsecond.com.

Since then, the website (which features video testimonies from various folks) has gotten more than 1 million visits from people all over the world. Nathan Sheets, a Prestonwood member and vice president of e3 Partners Ministry, and Norm Miller, chairman of Interstate Batteries ... the men behind the campaign ... will be guest speakers at PowerLunch at Prestonwood on Tuesday, Sept. 22.


This week, I Am Second launched a second round of billboards and videos. And my story is one of them. By providence, the billboard with my picture is in Fort Worth, less than one mile from my boyhood home. I invite you to watch my film.
And if you live in the Dallas area, come to PowerLunch to hear more about this amazing campaign.

Some would say, "what could Pastor Graham have to say on I am Second"? but knowing your family story about loosing your dad makes perfect sense that that would be the most sorrowful
thing in your life to talk about, and how you overcame the sorrow and grief. Thank you for sharing your story and i believe that your forgiveness and hope will be an inspiration to others who watch you on I am second who maybe have had some kind of deep hurt as well... Katherine Robertson

I heard your message today on Power Point,and was so touched.I gave a child back to God back in 1995,and God drew me so close to Him,that I was able to say,"whatever He gives me,if He is okay with it,then I'm okay with it too." What a contented way to live, Pastor Jack!I'm now able to have other Mom's come together at my beach house,twice a year and share our pain and allow the healing to begin. Yes,He is first,and He's allowed me to be His reflection,and a reflection is second to the first and original item!
Thanks for telling me about this and for your Power Points!
Becky Lock :p)
