I've never been here however by accident started listening to an older gentleman (who i would find out was Dr. Stanley nearly 5 years later) 14 years ago now. The videos can be viewed at vimeo.com/sbcthisweek or in the #MyLottieStory Facebook video album at facebook.com/SBCthisweek. In 1971, Dr. Charles Stanley was called to serve as senior pastor when the church was located in downtown Atlanta at Peachtree and Fifth streets.

The associate pastor Anthony George is also amazing.

All of these ministries are provided with the sole intent of touching the world with the Word of God, motivated by a passion for God and compassion for people.…. I have never felt so many warm and loving people in a church body. This should be the time we are united and together.I also greatly hesitate to say I attended Sunday School and saw some, not all with a holier than thou attitude.

Anthony George has a good message, but can get political at times which I do not appreciate. I think I have been spoiled on my pastor that really teaches the Word in depth and gives me many ah ha moments. No one is perfect. He said, "Okay." Don't let the age thing get to you on the Sunday School class list on. He is so knowledgeable about the Bible! As someone who has ADD this is very helpfull to me. One night 5 years later I have the TV on and it's the same man, but this time I got his name.. and it was Dr. Stanley the same man who I'd been listening to without knowing. In this day and age so often are churches segregated among races.

I interpreted that as him saying that he'll park my car for me.

I love them both and have never heard anything but the truth of God's word preacher here!

In 14 years, I've never questioned his integrity or commitment. Under Dr. Stanleys leadership the church outgrew its building and purchased 55 acres and a building from the Avon Corporation in Dunwoody. “If someone wants to submit a video, all they have to do is post it online to Twitter or Facebook with the hashtag #MyLottieStory,” Howe said. var now = new Date().getTime(); Other than that, the greeters, chorus, and band were great. He led me to the front so I could drop my grandmother off and then said, "I'll park you." Bible centered teaching. In these years I've moved and I have found other churches that I have called home but Dr. Stanley is so clearly obedient to the Lord and God has continued to speak so timely and pointidly to me through Dr. Stanley that I always listen to his sermons and the daily devotionals.

Stanley requested that the congregation be seated in order to hear the proposal in its entirety. It's always a treat to hear him preach. God has provided the best of everything here: top not preachers, lots of licensed pastors on staff, free professional Christian counceling for members and paid professional Christian Counceling to nonmembers, just about every ministry you can think of, Women's Bible Studies on Tuesdays, exercise classes, top notch security that is always there, hidden cameras all over the place, the Word is never watered down here.

Among the two dozen videos received to date are Lottie stories by Ronnie Floyd, pastor of Cross Church in northwest Arkansas and former SBC president; Danny Akin, president of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary; Jason K. Allen, president of Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary; J.D. At one point during Stanley’s presentation of the succession plan the congregation spontaneously stood and applauded to register approval of a seamless transition to ensure that the church remains healthy and viable into the future. We have always kept our phone number unlisted, and I couldn't understand what was up until I finally asked the last caller why we'd been selected for all the promotions. Music was wonderful.

This church had a  nice sized store for those of us that want to actually look at books. var minutes = Math.floor((distance % (1000 * 60 * 60)) / (1000 * 60)); Charles Stanley is the best teacher of the Word Of GOD! I have never felt so many warm and loving people in a church body. But if history is to be included, it really should be the truthful, factual account, not the one that makes a certain element feel all nice and cozy while disregarding the all too many lives damaged or even destroyed in the all-encompassing Euro greed  which once used God's name in vain to secure it's ill-gotten gain here. I love this church. var days = Math.floor(distance / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24));

As a regular attender,  I think I can give a good perspective on this church. 25 reviews of First Baptist Church Atlanta "If you want to experience a true teacher FBA is the place to go. Most churches are either all-white or all-black. He is a Mississippi native who holds an undergraduate degree from Criswell College in Dallas and master’s and doctoral degrees from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in North Carolina.

Thank GOD for Dr. CHARLES STANLEY'S biblical teachings. As a regular attender,  I think I can give a good perspective on this church. I try to make sure I never miss this one on TV. People here are very welcoming and friendly on the most part. BGCO Executive Director-Treasurer Anthony L. Jordan said he “cannot think of a more critical time in the struggle to protect the unborn. The church continues to restore and build as God leads in order to meet the growing needs of its many ministries. . OK - I don't see anything in the Bible to back the patriotism thing, although it does say to respect the authority of those who possess it.My problem with InTouch/FBA is that Dr. Stanley is clearly woefully misinformed about this nation's history, and when he gives talks based on this misinformation it creates confusion at the very least. I remember that was the beginning. I interpreted that as him saying that he'll park my car for me. It’s not just my Lottie story. Howe is director of strategic initiatives in the president’s office of LifeWay Christian Resources; Whitfield is director of marketing and communications at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. Is that he doesn't filter what he says just because he is scared to hurt someone's feelings.

I love Dr. Stanley. That said, there is one thing about this ministry that really does bother me. Hopefully it will continue to be blessed, as it has been a blessing to many of us. // Display the result in the element with id="countdown" The service is a nice mix of traditional and contemporary. The sermons are good and the people are friendly (in Sunday School). In addition to providing two Sunday morning services, Sunday school classes for all ages and discipleship classes throughout the week, FBA supports 100 Faith Promise missionaries internationally and sends out more than 100 members on short-term mission trips each year. Though Stanley became pastor of First Baptist in 1971, he first came to the church as associate pastor in 1969, the same year George was born.

// Get today's date and time That is why it is called a church. I always enjoy the sermons no matter who is preaching.

FBA additionally provides Biblically based counseling, pastoral care ministries, a full-size Christian bookstore and various events for the community such as the annual First Family Christmas program.

We would like to visit next Sunday April 15
