The B.B. Officers Dedication Service is led by the Reverend George Speers.
Preaching at a Boys’ Brigade officers’ dedication service, the Reverend George Speers turns to Psalm 78:4-7 to set out a “multigenerational mandate” for those who serve boys across the age sections. He identifies three duties for officers: to not hide the Lord’s deeds, to teach his word, and to labour for the Lord’s glory, drawing on writers such as Tim Keller, Sinclair Ferguson, Kevin DeYoung and Alistair Begg along the way. The sermon closes with a direct evangelistic appeal, urging officers themselves to have genuinely trusted in Christ before they can pass on that faith to the next generation.
