I'd not heard of Doctor Rogers .. I'm of an independant Baptist background- not Southern Baptist.

From what you are saying and the website of the ministry sounds as though he was a marvelous man of God!

Prayers for his family and those under his ministry.

Dr. Rogers was president of the So. Baptist Convention more than once.

Our Daughter worked for Love Worth Finding a number of years ago.

Not only was Dr, Robers a great man of God, he was greatly responsible for Ronald Reagan's election to President.

I am not a Baptist, but a native Memphian.
I knew how well respected Dr. Rogers was throughout
the area.
May God be with him.

Laugh..
I'm Southern Baptist NOW... in fact my pastor's wife and I have been discussing the history of the SBC lately. It's really very interesting - not coming from a "denominational" background.. ;)

We're a VERY tiny church.. not a "typical" "First Baptist" place. We've only been there a few months but knew the first Sunday we visited that we were finally "home" in a church!

I take it then he was one of those responsible for the Southern Baptist swing back to the right?

Welcome, Dr. Rogers was our Pastor, but we have a new one, that I think will be great.

Even though this is a Mega church, I grew up in "tiny" So. Baptist churches in So. Calif.

Yes he was one of those who brought the denomination back to where it needed to be.

We're seeing a changing of the guard! We've recently studied Moses transferring leadership to Joshua and then on to Caleb.

Dr. Rogers has gone on and Dr. Vines is retiring. Dr. Falwell has been struggling with his health for the past year too.

Pray the Lord will Bless us with fearless men of God who will proclaim the Word and live it before us as an example.

Typical of the Memphis media.... The Commically Appalling is running way behind us... it's 7:15 and they haven't made mention of it yet....

On a different note.... he was a wonderful man. Full of life and passion for his vocation. (I'd talk with him on his morning walks at the local "mall" where his wife and he would exercise.)

Be at peace, my faithful and humble servant.
