LYNN GREEN's address Saturday - Baptist Assembly '24 PENTECOST

General Secretary and Keynote speaker Lynn Green addresses those at Baptist Assembly '24. The address comes after our annual Ministers and Mission Workers commissioning ceremony, focusing on Acts 2:16-21.
No, this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel: “In the last days it will be, God declares, that I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams. Even upon my slaves, both men and women, in those days I will pour out my Spirit; and they shall prophesy. And I will show portents in the heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood, and fire, and smoky mist. The sun shall be turned to darkness and the moon to blood, before the coming of the Lord’s great and glorious day. Then everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

LYNN GREEN's address Friday - Baptist Assembly '24 PENTECOST

"Here we are, gathered together in one place, reading scripture about the first disciples, who were also gathered together in one space." Lynn Green opens Baptist Assembly '24 with an address which focuses on Acts 2:1-15, reminding us about the importance on waiting and praying. A theme which Baptists Together has been focusing on over the 1st quarter of this year.

The Sam Sharpe lectures seek to broaden and advance the legacy of Sam Sharpe by exploring subjects in mission, race, class, and injustice. They have become an important fixture in the calendar of community events marking Black History Month. The best of them have sought to create a community event where scholars, social activists and religious leaders share their vision for a just society. This short video explains more.

Bishop Mike Royal - Baptist Assembly 2023 Sunday Morning Address

On Sunday morning of the 2023 Baptist Assembly, Mike Royal preached on John 17: 13-23 But now I am coming to you, and I speak these things in the world so that they may have my joy made complete in themselves. I have given them your word, and the world has hated them because they do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world. I am not asking you to take them out of the world, but I ask you to protect them from the evil one. They do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world. Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth. As you have sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world. And for their sakes I sanctify myself, so that they also may be sanctified in truth. I ask not only on behalf of these, but also on behalf of those who will believe in me through their word, that they may all be one. As you, Father, are in me and I am in you, may they also be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. The glory that you have given me I have given them, so that they may be one, as we are one, I in them and you in me, that they may become completely one, so that the world may know that you have sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.
