For Review Only For Review Only ENGAGEFM-512PPI.indd All Pages 6/28/19 2:06 PM For Review Only “Chuck Kelley’s heartbeat is evangelism, and this book reflects the powerful focus of his life.” —Dr. Robert E. Coleman, Distinguished Senior Professor of Evangelism and Discipleship, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, former dean of the Billy Graham International Schools of Evangelism, director of the Billy Graham Center Institute of Evangelism at Wheaton College, and author of The Master Plan of Evangelism “Dr. Chuck Kelley has set an example of urgency in personal evangelism throughout his entire ministry. I’ve been with him numerous times when he began a conversation to share his hope in Jesus. His commitment is exemplary to all of us. In this book written in honor of Dr. Kelley by several faculty members who have served under his leadership at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary, the authors lay out practical tools to help you share the gospel with your friends, family, coworkers, and neighbors.” —Dr. J. D. Greear, lead pastor, The Summit Church, Raleigh-Durham, NC, and president, Southern Baptist Convention “I am extremely honored to endorse this book Engage: Tools for Contemporary Evangelism because of several reasons: 1. The book is dedicated to Dr. Chuck Kelley, who is retiring as president of NOBTS, the longest-serving president of this seminary. If you cut Dr. Kelley, he bleeds evangelism. He has taught it, preached it, wrote about it, and lived it all his life. 2. Because of my relationship with the authors and their desire to see lost sinners come to repentance. 3. This book truly has all the tools necessary to equip anyone to be effective in evangelism. Whether they live in the inner city or in the suburbs this book—if applied and practiced—are the ABCs to reaching this generation. I highly recommend Engage: Tools for Contemporary Evangelism to everyone who is serious about changing our society through evangelism.” —Fred Luter Jr., pastor, Franklin Avenue Baptist Church, New Orleans, LA, and former president, Southern Baptist Convention “If the gospel we believe is true, then what could possibly be more important than to be able to effectively share it with others? Yet most believers never do. This wonderful book will be the resource you need to help you Engage others with this life-changing message and introduce them to a life-changing Savior. You will find in these pages more than information—you will find real tools to help you share the good news in this challenging and changing culture. I’m so thankful for this powerful tool for my own life!” —Dr. John Avant, president, Life Action “These pages include a firm view of the role of the Holy Spirit in evangelism that is often missed. The faculty at NOBTS has given us a volume filled with solid biblical theology and urgent evangelistic strategy. It is up to us to share the gospel in every possible way, and we have been given a remarkable path to follow.” —Dr. Jimmy Draper, president emeritus, LifeWay “What a terrific compilation of teachings on evangelism! Engage: Tools for Contemporary Evangelism provides strong biblical and historical reasoning for reaching people with the message of the gospel. It also addresses many of the theological issues that have kept Christian leaders from winning people to Christ and helping them to grow in their walk with him. However, it doesn’t just provide theoretical conclusions. It gives practical help in doing evangelism. It’s a great resource that needs For Review Only to be in the toolbox of every pastor and Christian leader. What a great honor for Dr. Chuck Kelley to have this compiled as a gift for his service in God’s kingdom through New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. And what a great gift to the body of Christ at this moment in history! Read it, and be blessed. Then apply it and reach the world for Christ!” —Dr. Sammy Tippit, author, international evangelist, and president of Conference of Southern Baptist Evangelists “I love this book! Engage: Tools for Contemporary Evangelism is a tremendous resource for anyone interested in the Great Commission. It is well written, engaging, and practical. In a time that desperately needs to reclaim the value and importance of evangelism, this book shows us how we can be involved in God’s great work of saving sinners. Read this book and benefit from the guidance, scholarship, and passion that it provides. I’m praying God uses this book to make an eternal impact!” —Dr. Doug Munton, senior pastor, First Baptist Church, O’Fallon, IL, author, and online professor of preaching and evangelism “Evangelism, as an academic discipline, began among Southern Baptists shortly after the turn of the twentieth century. From that time to the present, names like Scarborough, Autrey, Drummond, Leavell, Fish, and Miles have become synonymous with evangelism in Southern Baptist academies, churches, and the Convention. Without a doubt, Dr. Charles S. Kelley Jr. belongs among these men’s ranks and reputations. Just as with Drs. Drummond, Fish, and Miles, faculty members and former students have determined upon Dr. Kelley’s retirement that his evangelistic ministry, writings, and work are so monumental that they have complied essays in order to compose a Festschrift entitled Engage: Tools for Contemporary Evangelism. Engage is a comprehensive resource on evangelism that will fuel the fire of passionate soul-winning, assist believers by presenting the gospel and then declaring to unbelievers, ‘Here’s hope,’ and elicit in readers, as it did in me, an exuberant, ‘Wow!’” —Dr. Matt Queen, associate professor and L. R. Scarborough Chair of Evangelism (“The Chair of Fire”), associate director of doctoral programs, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, Fort Worth, TX “It is fitting that a Festschrift in honor of Dr. Chuck Kelley represent the clear passion of his life—evangelism. Each essay displays Dr. Kelley’s passion tied to the local church, taught by his colleagues, and tethered to an invitation—Engage! I strongly recommend this book as a valuable and practical resource for training in church evangelism.” —Dr. Thomas P. Johnston, professor of evangelism, Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and Spurgeon College “With the rapid change of culture, scholars in the academic classroom as well as congregants in the local church long desperately to possess a resource for engaging their culture through the Great Commission. Continuing in the evangelistic zeal of Dr. Kelley, this timely Festschrift, writ- ten in his honor, provides biblical and historical foundations necessary for effective soul-winning, addresses theological issues germane to the modern-church, yet delivers practical assistance to the local church. Engage: Tools for Contemporary Evangelism rightly underscores the unity between the motivations for evangelism and the practice of it. After reading this work, you are sure to have the necessary tools to engage in contemporary evangelism.” —Carl J.

  • Lady Antebellum Feel the Emotions of Ocean "What If I Never Get Over You" Hits Top 10
    (11.18.19) - http://www.cmt.com/news/1814806/lady-antebellum-feel-the-emotions-of-ocean/ Lady Antebellum Feel the Emotions of Ocean "What If I Never Get Over You" Hits Top 10 Lady Antebellum decided to take it back to the start with Ocean, a brand new album that echoes their earliest work. Their familiar harmonies and heartaches are on full display on the Top 10 single, “What If I Never Get Over You.” After more than a decade together, Lady A partnered with a different record label and producer to bring Ocean to life. In the video below, band members Dave Haywood, Charles Kelley, and Hillary Scott tell CMT.com about their latest project. CMT: How does Ocean compare to your previous albums? Scott: All of our albums have felt very personal, for sure, but this one I think is the most present. Kelley: The most vulnerable. Scott: Vulnerable, where we are in our life right now, talking about our families and our children. You know, our deepest, darkest inner struggles. I mean, we just really bare it all in these songs. CMT: Where did the title, Ocean, come from? Scott: An ocean brings up so many emotions. You can feel so small standing on the shore, and scared because the waves are crashing around you. You can feel free, you can feel so many different things. And this record I think touches on all of those emotions. Kelley: In waves. There are a lot of ups and downs on this record. Also, too, we really wanted an art piece.

  • Planes, Trains and Automobiles. Lady Antebellum Has Spent Plenty of Time in All Three
    747 Planes, trains and automobiles. Lady Antebellum has spent plenty of time in all three. Driven by the need to continually evolve, the country trio always seems to be in transit, pushing toward a newer, bolder sound one minute and hitting the road for a worldwide tour the next. Sometimes, those two things happen at once. With 747 , Lady Antebellum's fifth album, the band captures the speed and spirit of its critically- acclaimed live show in 11 new songs. Bandmates Charles Kelley, Hillary Scott and Dave Haywood may have formed the group in Nashville, with all three singers harmonizing for the first time around Haywood's piano, but they earned their stripes on the road. That's where Lady Antebellum truly came alive, mixing the rootsy stomp of forward-thinking Country music with the swooning, sweeping sound of three voices that were born to mesh. As the shows got bigger, so did the band's ambition. Written during the 2014 Take Me Downtown Tour, 747 — whose title rustles up the image of a fast-moving plane bound for bigger, better places — doubles as a metaphor for the group itself. After spending years at the top of the Country charts, Lady Antebellum is ready to pull up the wheels and climb even higher. "We started discovering more of an 'in your face' sound that we'd never explored before, so we began writing towards that mentality," says Kelley, who remembers walking into a dance bar after a Lady Antebellum concert and feeling the need to compose faster, fiercer songs that could live in that environment.

  • The Kelley Newsletter Part 4
    The Kelley newsletter part 4 The 1940 Reunion The reunion will be held this year in Washington Park, Washington, Pa. I have not learned the arrangements aout the dinner but I suppose it will be the usual clan dinner. Bring your own cups, plates and silverware. Also bring lots of victuals (excuse me for trying to be funny). I have received the following letter from clan president William Lynn Kelley:- "We have had reserved for the Kelley reunion on September first the use of a new shelter just being completed in Washington Park. This shelter is just to the left after entering the park gates. The first road to the left leads up to it and it is easily seen from the entrance. We think that there will be ample room here and that it is an ideal place for the dinner and the meeting." Hot coffee will be furnished. Bring your own coffee pots. Many Thanks. The historian appreciates more than tongue can tell the twenty five dollars given by the clan for helping the magazine work. The printing and the postage amount to about six dollars on each issue. This is the third issue since the 1939 reunion so I have about six dollars on hand now. ********************** THE KELLEY CLAN MAGAZINE PUBLISHED OCCASIONALLY BY: JAMES O.
