Pastor John Jenkins Built Glenarden Into A Giant — What Comes Next?

How did Pastor John K. Jenkins Sr. take First Baptist Church of Glenarden from about 500 members in 1989 to more than 11,000? In this video, we trace his journey from a 15-year-old licensed minister to president of Converge, the first African American to lead the 170-year-old organization, and chairman of the board of the National Association of Evangelicals. You’ll learn about his early years pastoring in King George, Virginia, the mentor whose passing brought him home to Glenarden, the disciple-making culture he built, and the community work of SHABACH! Ministries. We also take an honest look at the question many people are asking: what’s next for FBCG? #JohnJenkins #FBCG #FirstBaptistGlenarden #PastorJenkins #Converge #ChurchLeadership #ChurchGrowth #Legacy #ChristianLeadership #BlackChurchHistory
