Ben Whitley
Elder
I aspired to become an elder to care and love the congregation of Risen Hope Baptist Church, and to help keep our ministry focus centered on the gospel as we move into the future.
My prayer for Risen Hope Baptist Church is from Ephesians 3:16-18. “God, according to the riches of your glory may you grant us to be strengthened with power through your Spirit in our inner being, so that Christ may dwell in our hearts through faith—that we, being rooted and grounded in love, may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that we may be filled with all the fullness of God.”
