On the Road Again

Last night I began the first of three nights of preaching in Whichita, KA. The revival services are being hosted by Pastor Terrace Floyd and the Mt. Gilead Missionary Baptist Church. The congregation is slightly over three years old. But there seems to be spiritual unity, willing service, and great expectations among the membership. And Pastor Floyd is a goldy man who loves his congregation and desires to grow as a preacher. This is a great atmosphere in which to nurture a young church. In other Whichita news... Not far from my hotel, the sentencing of the "BTK" strangler is in process. I don't think non-residents, like myself, can relate to the deep impact these serial murders has had on this community.
