"The Greatest Thing That Ever Happened To Me" by Dr. Jerry L. Spencer:  


As a young man Jerry was an active sportsman. He was an all-star 4-year letterman in baseball, boxing, track and field, and football. He attended college on a baseball scholarship. He was a Golden Glove boxing champion in the Mid-South. Today he enjoys golf and fishing. For four years he had his own TV fishing show called, Timeout.

In the Ministry since 1957

1988-2000, Pastor for 12 years of the of the 3,000 member Ridgecrest Baptist Church, Dothan, AL

Jerry has had the honor of preaching in some of the leading churches of America:

First Baptist, Dallas, TX; First Baptist, Jacksonville, FL; First Baptist, Orlando, FL; Prestonwood Baptist, Dallas, TX; Bellevue Baptist, Memphis, TN; Thomas Road Baptist, Lynchburg, VA; First Baptist, Woodstock, GA; First Southern, Del City, OK

He has conducted over 1,500 Revivals and over 100 Area-wide Crusades in over 20 foreign countries. In India alone he has seen over 250,000 souls saved. In the last 14 months he has conducted Crusades in the Philippines, Costa Rica, Africa, Nicaragua, Jamaica, and India. Over 15,000 precious souls were converted during these Crusades.

One of his most effective ministries is conducting Pastor’s Conferences around the world. He has spoken to thousands of pastors motivating them to reach the lost with the Gospel, plant new churches, and live powerfully by the Word in the anointing of the Holy Spirit.

His special thrill is to see young people catch the vision of serving joyfully in the Kingdom of God and knowing the fulfilling excitement of being involved in Evangelizing this generation . . . Worldwide.
