Dr. Adrian Rogers is the founder and the president of Love Worth Finding Ministries. He is known as one of America's most respected Bible teachers.



Tracing back the works he has done and produced as a minister, we can see how he was able to come to this position and recieve such acclaim. Surely, it was not freely given to him.

In 2003, he was chosen to be part of Hall of Fame by the National Religious Broadcasters. He also has written numerous books, study guides, and other resource materials of Christianity.



Day by day, many people around the world are accepting Jesus as Christ by listening to his sermons through television and radio. LWF broadcasts 24 hours a day on the internet.



"I believe God wants us to proclaim the message of salvation in the power of the Holy Spirit by every means possible, especially through radio and television,” he said, “That's our commitment at Love Worth Finding and I am thrilled to be a part of this work!"



Dr Rogers is currently ministering Bellevue Baptist Church in Memphis, Tennessee. Bellevue Church has expanded from 9,000 members in 1972 to more than 28,000 today under his pastoral leadership.
