Ministry Programs

ministr3Though I am free and belong to no man, I make myself a slave to everyone, to win as many as possible. To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law, I became like one under the law (though I am not under the law), so as to win those under the law. To those not having the law I became like one not having the law (though I am not free from God’s laws but under Christ law). So as to win those not having the law. To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all men so by all possible means, I might save some. I do this for the sake of the Gospel that I may share in it’s blessings.

I Corinthians 9:19-23

“Hollis Conway possesses a unique blend of qualities that make him an outstanding communicator to any age

group. Young or old, kids or adults, city schools or country schools–no matter where we went, Hollis had a relevant, inspired, and appropriate message. He was both convicting and funny, challenging and light-hearted. What a great combination of gifts! Kids and adults alike totally opened up to him and his powerful message.

More than anything else, all who heard him could see that he had a changed life because of his surrender to Jesus Christ. What a great picture–a tall, lean African-American guy holding up two Olympic medals and lovingly sharing his faith!”

Bill Buckley – Mississippi FCA Area Director

 






ministr2“Hollis did a fantastic job when he spoke to our church. Hollis is the classic true life story of a man that went from obscurity to the world stage and then lost it all through a career ending injury. That injury became the vehicle God would use to change the course of his life. He is motivating, inspiring, practical, relevant and accurate. Hollis speaks in a way that every person can understand. I highly recommend this gifted communicator to your church or organization.”

Bill Dye – Senior Pastor North Monroe Baptist Church
