Why are thousands of people following Gayle Rogers Foster on Facebook?
Is it because of her daily faithfulness in posting things from Think On These Things Ministries, which she founded in 2022? Do people log in for a daily boost from such posts as: “YOUR TOP DAILY PRIORITY” or “WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU ARE DISCOURAGED, DISILLUSIONED, OR DEPRESSED”? Could people be interested in a women’s conference at which Gayle might be speaking?
Maybe it’s her middle name—ROGERS. After all, Gayle is the daughter of one of the most beloved and oft-quoted pastors in the world, Dr. Adrian Rogers. Like her dad, Gayle goes straight to the Bible in preparing her forthright posts and teachings; she possesses the apple of “holy boldness” that falls straight from the family tree. Then again, Gayle has her own distinct writing and speaking style and a sense of humor that has kept her and others laughing through decades of rearing a family and serving as a former Diamond Executive Director with Premier Designs Jewelry.
Truth be told, her secret sauce is not in any of the above.
People follow Gayle because Gayle follows Jesus.
Gayle introduces herself on Facebook simply as “A Christ Follower,” and her LinkedIn profile follows suit:
There are many things that I am passionate about, but first and foremost, I am a passionate follower of Jesus Christ. Everything else is secondary. But after that, I am a lifelong student and teacher of Biblical leadership principles. I want you to have the mindset that you are a full-time Christian minister regardless of whether you perform that ministry on a church staff or in a secular job. Your calling is not in your ministry title or job description but in your own personal commitment to make a difference for Christ with each person you come into contact with in the course of your job, whatever that job may be.

You might also be interested in her brand new 30-day devotional book, "Front Porch Moments," published through Love Worth Finding.
In this warm devotional, she invites her readers to grab a glass of iced tea, pull up a chair, and get ready to start a journey of laughter, love, and life-changing encounters with Jesus. Gayle weaves humor and wisdom into every daily reading, provides key insights from her father, Pastor Adrian Rogers, and encourages women to prioritize a closer relationship with God: "There is no more important request than the one God makes in Psalm 27," Gayle says, "My heart has heard you say, 'Come and talk with Me.' And my heart responds, 'Lord I am coming'"(Psalm 27:8).
Wherever you find Gayle—whether at a conference or curled up reading her devotional—you’ll find a friend…someone you can laugh with, and someone who desires not just to speak but to speak into your life with God’s love.
