Jerry Rankin – författare

For years, International Mission Board president Jerry Rankin has begun each day by reading and meditating on a Psalm. “The Psalms reveal the nature and character of God,” he explains. “The graphic, picturesque language evokes images that stir our emotions and strengthen our confidence. To know that God is our rock, our shield, our fortress and our strong tower all convey an understanding we need each day.”

In the Secret Place gathers devotions and prayers written by Rankin for each of the one-hundred-fifty chapters in the book of Psalms. Personal yet universal, they reflect an openhearted journey of faith and deepening love for God to which the reader will aspire

Great Commission Obedience is a resource for pastors that will inspire them to preach boldly on missions and spark an evangelistic resurgence. It features messages compiled by veteran missionary and retired International Mission Board president Jerry Rankin-each one packed with personal illustrations and practical examples of how God is at work around the world today. As the Southern Baptist denomination rallies toward a Great Commission Resurgence, these messages help clear that path and unite volunteer mission teams being sent out by the church.
