How do we recognize greatness in the service of our Lord?  This week, Tallowood’s first pastor, Russell Dilday made his journey home to be with the Lord at the age of 92.  After he completed ten years at Tallowood, he went to serve as Pastor of Second Ponce De Leon Baptist in Atlanta.  From there he became President of Southwestern Seminary at the height of its enrollment and influence.  Russell served as the President of SWBTS and handed me my diploma when I graduated.  Then when I was talking to Tallowood about coming to serve here, he called me and encouraged me greatly.  We mourn his passing but we give thanks for his faithfulness.  Who will take up his mantle?  Who will receive a double portion of his spirit?  Who will serve the God Russell served and proclaimed?
