Alumnus of the Year

AiG is thrilled to be able to congratulate our Director of AiG’s Worldwide outreach, Dr. David Crandall, for receiving the honor of being named “Alumnus of the year” by the Baptist Bible College and Seminary–Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania. Dr. Crandall wrote to me:

I am very much honored that Baptist Bible College and Seminary alumni have selected me as alumnus the year. Thousands of alumni vote every year on this selection. On October 10th I will be honored at a special banquet on Campus. All four of my children are flying in for the event---it is the first time in years that all four have been with us at the same time. Only problem---10 grandchildren at the same time.

I praise God that He has chosen to use me in His ministry. I am especially thrilled to be with you and AiG and to see the global impact that is being made.

--David (Philippians 1:21.)

FLORIDA FEEDBACK

Last Sunday I spoke at a large Baptist church near Tampa, Florida. We continue to receive some wonderful feedback from that time down there, such as:

Thank you for coming to Idlewild Baptist Church. Your visit was an answer to one of my heart's prayers. I first saw you over 20 years ago at the University Baptist Church.

Please keep up the good work. You really made an impact. I hope you can return and present a weekend seminar as the Lord leads. Several people in the Sunday class I attend are hoping you can come back and present a seminar.

Thank you very much.

Devotion

Made affinity

(1Ki 3:1) And Solomon made affinity with Pharaoh king of Egypt, and took Pharaoh's daughter, and brought her into the city of David, until he had made an end of building his own house, and the house of the LORD, and the wall of Jerusalem round about.

We are to be in the world, but not of the world and we daily make the decisions as to whether or not we compromise by making an affinity with this world.

Thanks for stopping by and thanks for praying
