I was truly blessed and enriched to be able to spend a bit of time fellowshipping together with you this week in Montgomery. I am proud to count you as a partner in the Gospel as well. Alan,

I pastor a smaller SBC church in Montgomery and I can verify everything that David has said and more. FBC, led by Pastor Jay Wolf, also leads out in citywide initiatives. They are proud of their church, but they also bless other smaller churches and you always get the sense that we are all on the same team, instead of competing. Over the past 5 years, they have led the way in racial reconciliation in our city, leading the One Montgomery movement and being a key player in the 50th anniversary of the Montgomery Bus Boycott - partnering with other predominately black churches. Pastor Wolf always takes time to attend the ministerial meetings of both the local Baptist association, as well as the interdenominational monthly pastors meeting. He is truly incredible. He has an amazing vision for reaching the lost and I admire him greatly. I've met with him many times and our church partnered with FBC in disaster relief work down on the Gulf Coast after Katrina. I can't say enough good things about FBC. If every traditional church and every mega church in the SBC would act like FBC Montgomery, we would see a dynamism in our Convention that would shake the world. Good words, David.
