…I can't tell you the impact the Spirit of God had upon our time together... I am in awe as I listen to others tell me of their experience with God this past weekend, not to mention how God is working in my personal life as a result. The ministry God has given you is so vital and necessary…

It is incredible how someone in such a short time can have such a profound effect on a suffering church. You were like a breath of fresh air coming into our midst! (I know what you're thinking.....the breath of fresh air was God's Spirit...and you're right!) Thank you for allowing Him to use you in such a powerful way.

5 Principles of Unity

  • A small-group Bible study curriculum which explores Biblical interpersonal relationships in the body of Christ and the spiritual gift of peacemaking.
  • Published by the Texas Baptist Leadership Center, this study comes with both participants' workbooks and a facilitator's edition and has been used effectively by congegations across the country.

There are not enough superlatives in the English language to convey what my husband and I feel about the conference! The principles of unity of which we were made aware are so simple, yet so profound.

God's Church,

  • Explore topics such as accountability, forgiveness, Spiritual gifts, and consensus.

Blake Coffee teaching [God's Church, God's Way] raised the standard for our facilities expansion project. Our leaders were pleasantly surprised as Blake directed our energies into building the body as we expand our facilities. Blake taught us to use "Extraordinary Materials" when we build: Spiritual Gifts, Fruit of the Spirit, Divine Grace, Consensus Building, and Biblical Accountability.
