Dear Pastors, Ministers and Clergy:

With a great deal of personal excitement and anticipated joy, I am extremely pleased to announce and

endorse the publication of The Metropolitan Atlanta Church Guide. This brand new quarterly publica-

tion will highlight the many outstanding achievements of pastors, church officers, lay leaders, and other

church associates within metropolitan Atlanta black churches. Through targeted distribution of its

printed guide and a powerful, but innovative and interactive online guide, the publication will present

a new and different way of introducing and sharing the achievements associated with your church and

ministries to all of metro Atlanta.

Throughout our history, the black church and the pastors of these churches have never received the ac-

colades and honors from the mainstream media and publishing world for what the black church has

done to define African American culture. Awards are constantly given that glorifies all varieties of

lifestyles and personalities. However, it is difficult to find in a single publication that focuses specifically

on the black church and the leadership contributions of its pastors and within the membership.

The publishers of this wonderful new guide are faithful members of the Antioch Baptist Church North

where they have added tremendous leadership to the ongoing growth and vitality of our congregational

family during the past 12 years. I have been amazed by their deep passion for ministry and for spreading

the gospel of Jesus Christ. As publishers, they are innovative communicators of God’s truths and have

a keen understanding of our culture as a people. The craftsmanship of this guide will be refreshing and

balanced with a focus on pastors, ministers, clergy and members within the black church regardless of

the size of the membership.

To my knowledge, there is no other similar publication that has built its foundation on a ministry such

as this. Therefore, it gives me immense personal satisfaction to recommend this publication to you and

to the members of your church.

Yours in God’s service,

We are continuing a series of ser-

mons which we are calling FAMILY

SECRETS. What are the secrets of

building strong Christian families?

We are looking for both principles

and examples to help us as we seek

to build better families. Today we

focus on the real heart of what it

means to be part of the family of

Christ.

"Johnny," said a teacher to one of her

young pupils, "do you think you

could explain to the class the differ-

ence between 'like' and 'love'?"

"Well," said Johnny, "I like my par-

ents . . . but I love Milk Duds."

Well, we who are parents can only

hope that we are at least as important

to our children as Milk Duds.

I must tell you, though, that one

Mom had a most revealing experi-

ence on her birthday. Her two chil-

dren ordered her to stay in bed. She

lay there looking forward to being

brought her breakfast, as the inviting

smell of bacon floated up from the

kitchen. At last the children called

her downstairs. She found them sit-

ting at the table, each with a large

plate of bacon and eggs. "As a birth-

day surprise," one explained, "We've

cooked our own breakfast." (1)

That says bundles, doesn't it? Who in

this world does more for us than our

Mom? And who is taken for granted

more than our Mom?

Our text for the day could easily be

about being a good mother or a good

father, but actually it is aimed at the

whole Christian family. Jesus is look-

ing to the cross. There he will glorify

God by his perfect obedience to

God's plan. Now he is calling his dis-

ciples to perfect obedience as well.
