The best of sermons from historic Galloway Methodist Church in Jackson, Mississippi. Galloway Methodist Church, the oldest worshiping congregation in Jackson, Mississippi, still sits on the acreage first provided it by the state legislature in 1837. Galloway has been blessed to have pastors who were men of courage, conviction, and compassion. Here is a sermon collection for the 50-year period from 1940 to 1990. The messages presented reflect the times in which they were written and continually show the concern the pastors had for their congregation and its spiritual growth. Galloway was one of the many churches in the South that at one time denied access to persons of some racial ethnicities. Thus, it became 'historic' for reasons other than longevity. The congregation was torn emotionally and physically by the decisions rendered at that time. Today, the Galloway Church family has determined to remain in its downtown location, with its motto, 'Open Hearts, Open Minds, Open Doors.' The motto reflects the change its members have committed to in order to serve the Jackson community.
