Prayer Request for the GCR Interim Report on February 22

Feb 18th, 2010 by Daniel Akin Print This Post

Monday evening February 22 will be an important moment in SBC life as Dr. Ronnie Floyd will make an interim report from the Great Commission Resurgence Task Force. We had hoped to live stream the presentation but we were denied that request. However, Dr. Floyd will post a video that contains the substance of his report immediately following his presentation at the Executive Committee. We are excited and hopeful about what will be shared. Again, this is an interim report. We will have additional recommendations that will challenge every Southern Baptist on the heart and personal level when we release our final report in May. We realize that the GCR is DOA if individual Southern Baptist do not get excited about our report and buy in to its vision. This report will highlight both our “Big Vision” for the future as well as those actions we will recommend Southern Baptist adopt for implementation in Orlando that effect our national entities and strategies. Please read the request for prayer from Dr. Floyd and lift both Ronnie and Dr. Johnny Hunt up to the Lord in prayer as they speak to the EC on Monday night. I am praying that it will be a historic event. I am praying God will visit us.

(Note: The following is written by Dr. Ronnie Floyd and is reproduced from the Pray4GCR weblog. The original post is available here.)

I am most thankful for the ever growing number of you who are joining us as GCR Prayer Partners. I do not know of any time in our process where we need prayer any more than for our presentation on Monday night in Nashville, Tennessee. Please encourage others to join us as Prayer Partners at www.pray4gcr.com. Again, we need prayer support. On Monday night, I will be giving a Progress Report to the Executive Committee of the Southern Baptist Convention, as well as to the representative leadership gathered from around the Southern Baptist Convention.

As I deliver this Progress Report, I need your prayers. Many hours of preparation have been spent on writing this report. Preceding this point, our entire GCR Task Force has spent countless hours in meetings, on phone calls, doing research, responding to correspondence, and having personal dialogue with many individuals and groups. The price has been paid to get us to this point of sharing some of our initial vision with you. As we unfold a substantial part of our vision, we ask you to join us with excitement over what God is doing.

We realize that many of you have an interest in hearing the Progress Report. Therefore, if you will visit our website at www.pray4gcr.com on Monday night at approximately 9:30 p.m. CST, we will have the report on video for you. I am going into the studio sometime before Monday so I can share with all Southern Baptists what God has put on our hearts. Once I sit down from making this presentation on Monday night, the video will be online at www.pray4gcr.com. Please share with others that they can view it online.

Finally, more important than anything, let’s pray for God to move mightily on Monday night in Nashville. Gather people to pray for this important night. I humbly appeal to you, please pray for me.

1,000 Thank Yous …
