I was with Dennis Jennings, Missions Dir for the BBF today. He's on a no-named diet but supervised, and has lost about 2 lbs a week for about 30 weeks. He has about 20 lbs to go.

He said, this will work or I will die fat and young. "I'm not going to keep going in and out of diets."

Good for Dennis - looks like his eating plan is working. I was glad to hear it wasn't anything too kooky. The controversy, if any, is that it includes drinking 12 glasses of water a day, whether he's thirsty or not.

Before being Missions Director, he was pastor of Park Crest Baptist, Clearwater.

I knew him when he was a bus kid, circa 1974.

You must have attended Temple Baptist in Titusville FL. I was saved under the ministry there in 1988. Brother Jennings has done a great job whatever he has done.

Sure he's lost a lot of weight, but he can still put away the bar-b-que!
