I inherited treasured books and sermons from my grandfather, Rev. E. S. Flynt. He graduated from Mississippi College in 1918 and from Southern Seminary in 1921. He pastored for 55 years in Kentucky and Mississippi, and he planted five of the churches he pastored. His last pastorate was Second Baptist Church in Biloxi, MS.
On Tuesday of this past week, I donated most of these books to the Southern Baptist Historical Library and Archives. Director Taffey Hall and past director Bill Sumners came to my office to see the books. They said my collection of books and sermons dated 1880-1950 are literally a history of Southern Baptists during that time period. I am thankful to have donated more than 100 books and a couple hundred sermons.
