For each student at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, Great Commission ministry looks different. For Seth Taylor, it requires an arduous amount of effort; it can be painstakingly slow; and it is always through uncharted territory.
But his ministry to a group of people called the Speller Bros is a testament to God’s grace and a celebration of the all-surpassing worth of the gospel.
“I always knew about God because of my parents,” Seth shared as he spelled out his story. “Even before spelling, I listened to them read the Bible, and I learned all about Jesus. One day mom read to me the plan of salvation from a homeschool book. I realized I need to be forgiven, so I asked in my mind for Jesus to save me. He did, and now the Holy Spirit helps me try to live for him, even though I still can’t talk.”
From a young age, Seth experienced the world very differently than those around him.
