Challenge 2025

ABOUT

As believers we are challenged to live out our faith in our daily lives through evangelism and discipleship. As pastors, I know that you face intense challenges and hardships as you seek to advance God’s Kingdom right where He has placed you. We know as Florida Baptists we can do more together than we ever could alone.

Baptisms. Church Plants. Church Revitalizations. Mission Engagements. Maguire State Missions Offering. Cooperative Program Giving.

These aren’t just checklist items. They are indicators of the feet on the ground working for the glory of God.  No one person, no one church can accomplish all that God has called us to.

So we work together. We challenge and sharpen one another. We encourage our brothers and we pick each other up when it is too hard to go it alone.

Gather with us on February 27 for a time of facing our challenges, addressing our ministry contexts and struggles and equipping one another to continue the fight for the advancement of the Gospel.
