Pastor Poleon L. Griffin
Oak Grove Baptist Church
Jackson, Ga. 30233
Subject: Oak Grove Baptist
Church: "New"
Audio/Visual Conferencing Software
Greeting!
This is pastor Poleon L. Griffin from Oak Grove Baptist. In
response to the poor and unacceptable conferencing presentation last Sunday I
offer my apologies. Last Sunday we experienced some issues beyond our control
such as: people in different meeting rooms and could
not hear, presenters’ presentations audio fading, constant conferencing
application dropouts and the inability to Live Stream on Facebook. All of this was frustrating to me and I can only imagine how
many of you felt.
I am pleased to introduce a "NEW" Conferencing
Application from Cisco Called WebEx. Perhaps some of you are
familiar with this Conferencing Application and know that it is one of the Top
Leading Conferencing Applications in the world. It is widely used in
Corporate America, Government, Military, and Academic institutions. As result I
am please to present it to the Oak Grove Family and our Social
Media Audience. I am confident Cisco WebEx will meet the level of
quality this ministry and patrons deserve.
In the interim, practice logging in as soon and as often as you
can and if you have difficulty give us a call. During your practice you can
only reach the WebEx Conferencing Site, but you cannot enter unless an
active meeting is in progress.
Below you will find all the information needed to join us on:
- Tuesday's at 7:30 PM Bible

- Thursday at 7:00 PM Intercessory
Prayer
- Sundays 9:45 AM Sunday

In the words of the Apostle Paul:
- 2Co 4:8-10 KJV
We are troubled on every side, yet not
distressed; we are perplexed, but not in
despair; (9) Persecuted, but not
forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; (10)
Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life
also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.
Sincerely,
Pastor Poleon L. Griffin

A Word of Encouragement.
It has been said that those who forget the past will repeat it. Maybe, for a moment we forgot! And that is what I want to speak about because there are somethings we must remember.
We must remember:
1. There is redemption in suffering.
2. There is exaltation in humility.
3. There is reaping in sowing.
We must remember our teachings, in suffering, in humiliation and in just plain mistreatment. We must remember these teachings because it is those teachings that brought us where we are today.
I have learned that at the end of the day reciprocation such as; an eye for eye and tooth for tooth leaves all of us blind and toothless.
Jesus said: "Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth."
Simply put; Good things come to those who wait and endure. As I travel across
the South where Antebellum once ruled and was admired, I see broken and empty homes
and communities all but forgotten. Their season has come and gone which is a
reminder that: “tough times don't last, but tough people do.”
So, do not give in to hate, bitterness and strife which only adds fuel to the fire. This is the season for spiritual toughness. So, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might and put the WHOLE ARMOR of GOD which is the only way we can STAND. If, we do that, then we as a nation shall overcome.
