He has also received a Master of Theology and a Doctor of Ministry degree from Luther Rice Seminary in Florida (now located in Lithonia, Georgia).

Stanley joined the staff of First Baptist Church of Atlanta in 1969 and became senior pastor in 1971. In 1972, Stanley launched a half-hour religious television program called The Chapel Hour. In 1977, Stanley founded In Touch Ministries with the mission to lead people worldwide into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ and to strengthen the local church.The Christian Broadcasting Network began televising In Touch in 1978. The show has since been translated in 50 languages.
