I am reminded of Proverbs 22:1 “A good name is to be chosen rather than great riches, loving favor rather than silver and gold” when it comes to Frank Cox. He is a humble servant of God that has a GOOD name among men. I believe that he is the right man for times such as now to lead our convention. I truly believe that we have challenging days ahead. We, as Southern Baptist, need a man to lead us in this challenging time. I am certain that we must invest in our churches large and small. The best way to do this is the cooperative efforts of all churches. Frank has a proven track record of leading North Metro to an outstanding giving level of 13.1%. I am eager to cast my vote whole heartedly for Dr Frank Cox and look forward to many more delegates following suit.

Blessings,

Frank Cox and I have been friends for 22 years. I had the privilege to serve with him as an officer in the Georgia Baptist Convention and on several committees afterwards. He is so knowledgable of Baptist life and convention polity. Yet, he is so personable and down to earth that even someone like myself who was raised in the housing projects of Columbus, Georgia can build a life-time friendship with him. He loves the Lord and loves people.

I have had Frank preach in all three of my pastorates and my people were so impressed they wanted him to come back in every church. He preaches the Word with passion, conviction, and fire. The harvest was always great and the people were encouraged to live Godly lives.

With two young preacher sons, I am thrilled that Frank Cox is a present role model for them. He has personally spent time with them in their development in becoming excellent preachers.

I strongly encourage messengers to vote for Frank Cox as president of the SBC. We are so fragmented as a convention at the present time, and I cannot think of anyone better than Frank Cox to lead the SBC back to missions and evangelism. Join with me in Indy as I will proudly cast my vote for my dear friend Dr. Frank Cox.

It was not all that long ago that I had no knowledge of who Frank Cox was, but those who have known him for years sure speak highly of him. It doesn’t take long to find out that Frank Cox has proven himself to be a godly man and a great leader. I have been glad to see people from all across our convention endorsing him.
