Sharing the Love, SpivadinQ the Joy!
riarwood Baptist Church
is planning a way for people
to nourish their souls and
deepen their spiritual roots
at the beginning of the New Year. On
Sunday, January 12 the church will
host Stuart Hall as the event speaker
and the Brown Family will be the
guest musicians. Two service times
will be offered in the morning (8:50
AM and 11:00 AM) and there will be
one combined service that evening at
6:00 PM. Stuart Hall is a dynamic
communicator with the Echo Group
in Duluth, Georgia. He has preached
all over the U. S. and in several for
eign countries. The Brown Family
consists of the father, Mark and
daughters, Erin and Meagan. Their
music is a beautiful blend of tradi
tional hymns and contemporary
Christian worship music.
Mark (the dad and leader of Brown
Family Ministries) explains their
ministry like this: “Since the begin
ning of BFM, we knew our love for
music would have a vital role in this
ministry. God has given us the abili
ty to play many different styles of
music which has opened doors for us
to minister to various groups of peo
ple — both within and outside the
church. We have been privileged to
lead young people in worship
through retreats like Disciple Now
Weekends and also connect with col
lege students and singles at events
such as the LifeWay Singles Retreat.
We’ve led worship for church
revivals and have also enjoyed reach
ing out to the senior adult groups
within the church. Leading marriage
retreats has been an interesting addi
tion to the ministry of BFM. We
never expected to serve in this way
and have been so encouraged to see
how God has worked in couples’
lives as we’ve shared our personal
trials and lessons learned with them.
We are all on this journey together.”
Brown Family Ministries has also
led at the Billy Graham Training
Center at The Cove as conference
worship leaders. They have been on
the program with speakers such as
Dr. Henry Blackaby with his son Dr.
Richard Blackaby, Dr. Lloyd John
Ogilvie, Pastor Jim Cymbala, and
Chip Ingram.
Stuart Hall provides vision and
leadership for two highly effective
non-profit organizations (XP3: A
Division of the Rethink Group &
DASH INC), works to develop spiri
tually influential students that engage
culture, partners with organizations
like the Fellowship of Christian
Athletes to develop students as lead
ers, travels and speaks to thousands
of students and leaders each year, and
has coauthored three books (The
Seven Checkpoints: Seven Principles
Every Teenager Needs to Know,
MAX Q: Developing Students of
Influence and Wired: For a Life of
Worship, Leaders Edition).
Nathan Wright of North Cobb
Christian School summarized the
time Stuart spent with them this way:
“This week has been fantastic for us.
I have never received as much posi
tive feedback from students, teachers
and even parents. Stuart really con
nected with them and they were
glued to his words.
The theme for the day represents a
heartfelt prayer for God to awaken
hearts that have become cold and dis
tant in their relationship with Him.
People from all walks of life are
invited to come to the “Refresh”
One-Day Event. For more informa
tion call (706) 769-7660.
