FGGAM photo of Pastor Dewey Moede. Sharon and I spent three days in June ministering in Catron County. I am so very thankful to our Lord that Sharon travels with me now! Sharon makes our ministry much stronger! Glory! God gives us such joy! We so much love being a Great Commission ministry! A FULL HOUSE  at the First Baptist Church in Glenwood! Glory! God is so very good to us! Folks loved our TEAM JESUS shirt! We also just spent 12 days in Alaska in August! So much fun and many opportunities to share JESUS! Thank YOU LORD! You cannot beat sharing JESUS and having so much fun doing it! Love my Sharon! Two are one!

FGGAM Photo. We love sharing JESUS everywhere we go. We have a heart for young people! They are our future! Smiths grocery is an excellent place to share JESUS, as is the Post Office and Bank.

So many Churches are failing to baptize people and raise up strong, loving Christians. They are stuck. I see to much of this struggle, 10 to 25 in Church, no growth, no baptisims, no children in Church, no Children’s Sunday school, NO ADULT SUNDAY SCHOOL in some! WHY DON’T SOME CHURCHES MERGE WITH OUTER CHURCHES??? My goodness, you have a Church on every street corner here in Albuquerque and the city is falling into the pit of hell. The failure is mostly in not carrying out The Great Commission, The Church in America is at risk losing many folks because of this failure. Like I have said for years your not going to change the  world inside your Church! Hit the streets and share the love of JESUS with all people. The Great Commission is the foundation of FGGAM. We share the love of JESUS to one person at a time!

I have been a witness of this failure of many Churches now for 25 years. It just breaks my heart. The late Pastor Don Kimbro, my mentor, wrote about this failure: Butts, Bucks and Buildings!

When I was in seventh grade, the best ballplayer on my Deer Creek Junior High basketball team was Jerry McGee. Jerry was an amazing athlete for a 13-year-old, but in a game against our biggest rivals he got confused about which basket was ours. Jerry stole the ball and made a fastbreak layup … for the other team! The scoreboard didn’t lie. He had just scored two points for the other team. And then it got worse: He did it again.

Scoreboards Never Lie

A scoreboard never lies. Whether in basketball, baseball or football, it succinctly displays the outcome of the game. Similarly, it is essential for a church to have metrics that provide an accurate reflection of progress and impact. Without honest assessments, it’s challenging to gauge whether a church is winning or not. More Here
