The old ways and days are past. We are facing a new day and we need to embrace God’s Word and God’s Way for a new day. We must not try what we have always done, but wait on God, embrace a new way, God’s way, for our day. This is a vision that God would have us embrace that we might see Him work mightily in us and through us.
This project A NEW DAY—GOD’S WAY has been developed by prayerful thought through the work of Pastors Jerry Hopkins, Robert Horn, Tim Rule. John Worley, Ivy Shelton, Barney Bryant, Director of Missions Dr. Gerald Edwards, SBTC Field Strategist John McGuire, BGCT Director Tim Watson and Evangelist Larry McFadden.
