Coffee and Conversation at 16th<\/sup>Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama<\/p>\n\n\n\n


\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Featuring Special Guest: \u00a0Rev. Arthur L. Price, Jr.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love this church.\u00a0\u00a0I love its heartbeat.\u00a0\u00a0This is hallowed ground where evil once struck; yet the love of Jesus Christ continues to resound triumphantly in the lives and ministry of this precious congregation.I was privileged to sit down with Rev. Price over a cup of coffee and listen as he shared his redemption story, as well as his unique perspective as Pastor of this historic church that was challenged 56 years ago \u201cfor such a time as then.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0I think you will agree that his testimony of grace and wisdom is relevant \u201cfor such a time as now.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0But my greatest takeaway from this marvelous conversation is this:\u00a0\u00a0the main attraction of 16th Street\u00a0Baptist Church is Jesus Christ.\u00a0\u00a0And just like Jesus, they have answered nails with gospel truth, love, reconciliation, and forgiveness.\u00a0\u00a0That uncommon witness is \u201cfor such a time as always.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
