Tribute to Dr. Adrian Rodgers:
Dr.
Adrian Rogers, one of the greatest preachers and
Christian leaders of the 20th century, died November 15,
2005. Like Ezra, the great leader of ancient Israel, Dr.
Rogers committed his life to one overarching purpose:
the preaching and teaching of God’s Word.
Dr. Rogers succumbed to pneumonia after battling cancer
that was diagnosed soon after his March 2005 retirement
from 32 years as pastor of the Bellevue Baptist Church
in Memphis Tennessee. One of America’s largest churches,
Bellevue has more than 29,000 members and a ministry
that reaches around the world. The church grew and
thrived under the dynamic preaching and loving pastoral
care of Dr. Rogers. He was named Pastor Emeritus of the
church at his retirement.
The family kindly requests that any memorials be sent to
the “Adrian Rogers Pastor Training Institute” (PTI), a
division of Love Worth Finding Ministries, to go toward
the continuance of his ministry and vision to train
pastors for the furtherance of the Gospel here and
around the world. Gifts may be sent to the “Adrian
Rogers Pastor Training Institute,” c/o Love Worth
Finding, 2941 Kate Bond Road, Memphis, TN 38133. Or call
(901) 382-7900.
