Summary	God has worked marvelously in the Baptist General Conference in the 1980s. In world missions we experienced miraculous growth. In 1981 we cooperated with 503 churches overseas with 28,461 baptized believers. In 1990, the number grew to 780 churches overseas, having a total of 54,341 baptized believers! Bethel College and Seminary made significant advances, although the college drew from a smaller pool of students. In 1990, 2300 students filled Bethel with life and spiritual fervor. In home missions, we experienced an outstanding decade of church planting. Twenty-seven percent of our existing churches were begun during the 1980s, and by 1990, 13 ethnic groups were represented by about 100 churches in our fellowship. In the latter half of the decade, BGC leadership forged a vision statement of Aggressive Evangelism and Church Planting. While multitudes of ministries about in our churches, district offices and at Bethel, the heart of our work is evangelism and church planting. We place our plans, priorities and budgets against this grid. Our vision and plans are based on the clear teaching of the Scriptures. Because they are the fully inspired, inerrant Word of God, we take them as our authority in determining the direction of our fellowship of churches.
