"There’s not a more important time for campus ministry and for churches to lead out in collaborative effort..."

In his last Annual Meeting as executive director of the Baptist General Convention of Texas, Dr. David Hardage addressed a full room in a Monday morning workshop entitled “Texas Baptists: Today and Tomorrow.”

“When you look at how Jesus did ministry a lot of times He asked questions. You don’t necessarily have to have all the right answers; you just have to know how to ask the right questions,”

“There is a big difference between believing in God and believing God,” said Tony Canady, pastor of Triumphal Christian Fellowship, a multicultural and multigenerational Texas Baptists church plant in Waxahachie.

The rally was a time of fellowship and worship for Millenial and Generation Z pastors and ministers and was held at a coffee shop in downtown Waco.
