Adrian Rogers or Charles Stanley (I
can't remember which) once said that he thought that Bertha Smith, who died in
1988, did more than any other human being to orient Southern Baptist pastors to
the Holy Spirit. (Smith was a contemporary and missionary friend of Martha
Franks.)
I believe that since Ms. Smith went to
heaven, that mantle fell to Henry Blackaby. Few resources have had the massive
impact on God's people in the Southern Baptist Convention like Experiencing God: Knowing and Doing the Will of God by Henry Blackaby. I doubt if there
is any one living person whose life-message has impacted people in the SBC more
the last 23 years.
Lifeway Films, a new division of Lifeway Christian Resources, is about to
release their first documentary - one about the impact of EG in the Southern
Baptist Convention and beyond.
