Will the solar system survive the election of two more Dems to the senate? The galaxy? The universe? Humanity and huwomanity? BBQ grilling? Gas lawnmowers? Sweet tea? Hundreds of millions of dollars are [ ]A Letter from Dr. Jamie Dew to the NOBTS FacultyDecember 24, 2020 by Guest Blogger 23 Comments We received this letter from a friend of the NOBTS community. It was addressed to the faculty of NOBTS which was circulated around noon yesterday. After receiving the letter we contacted Dr. Dew for permission to post it here. Upon our request and our encouragement to him that this is an important statement which we [ ]Top SBC news of 2020 (Part One, maybe)December 22, 2020 by William Thornton 31 Comments COVID-19 and churches. Need anything more be said? The seminary president’s statement on CRT/I blows up. This is ongoing as I write. Messy. Alaska Baptist state convention votes to destroy the Cooperative Program. Very poor move by one of our smallest state conventions. As Ronnie Floyd said in response, It s the CP program, not the CP cafeteria. [ ]Winter solstice today, thank GodDecember 21, 2020 by William Thornton 5 Comments No. I’m not having a pagan party to celebrate but might indulge in a swig of ridiculously sweet egg nog, sans hard likker, to celebrate. I mean, we’re only getting 9 hours and 53 minutes of daylight here. That’s not enough for civilized people. After 5:02 this morning we get a little more sun each [ ]Jill, don t worry about that doctorate at least from SBCersDecember 18, 2020 by William Thornton Seems there s some sort of dust up over the proper title of Jill Biden, wife of the PRESIDENT ELECT, Joe Biden. Some business about Dr. Biden being the proper designation rather than just Jill or Ms. Biden or whatever. I confess that I thought she was an M.D. rather than an Ed.D. She has a [ ]The Sufficiency of Scripture and Resolution 9December 16, 2020 by Mike Leake There is a phrase which I ve seen tossed around lately in all our talks about critical-race theory and other issues of social justice. The phrase is even one which has become a hallmark of the relatively newly launched Conservative Baptist Network (CBN) You can see the phrase in their Twitter tag-line: “Sufficiency. The Bible, alone.” That [ ]Response to Seminary Presidents’ Statement (Marshal Ausberry)December 15, 2020 by Guest Blogger SBC First Vice President and President of the National African American Fellowship of the SBC Marshal Ausberry, pastor of Antioch Baptist Church in Fairfax, VA, released the following statement this past Friday. You can also see the statement along with an interview with Baptist Press here. December 11, 2020 Over the last week and a [ ]Why I Signed Up for the Vaccine TrialDecember 15, 2020 by Adam Wyatt Like most people, 2020 has been a whirlwind of emotions, confusion, and stress.  Being a pastor during a pandemic has been the most challenging thing I have ever had to deal with.  In the early stages, just trying to make a sound decision on when or if to stop gathering for worship was difficult. No [ ]From Boys to Men: My Response to the SBC Seminary Presidents’ CRT StatementDecember 14, 2020 by Dwight McKissic “When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put aside childish things.” (I Corinthians 13:11 CSB) I am often asked the question, why do I remain in the Southern Baptist Convention? A recent joint statement on race [ ]Time to come together and pray for president elect BidenDecember 14, 2020 by William Thornton Our venerable Electoral College votes today in their respective states. Diehards still see options, probably extending to Inauguration Day and beyond. Let them exercise their first amendment rights loudly but peacefully, but Joe Biden won. Donald Trump lost and lost and lost and lost. One  need not agree with any of Biden’s positions, policies, appointments, or nominees but Christians [ ]What s YOUR Problem with Resolution 9 Be SpecificDecember 11, 2020 by Dave Miller I am going to do something a bit cumbersome and pedantic in this post. I have copied the entire text of the controversial Resolution 9 from 2019 which has been the source of so much argument. I am going to comment on it section by section and ask those who are so upset about it [ ]Does the future growth of the SBC depend on non-anglo congregations?December 10, 2020 by William Thornton For many reasons it appears so, and has for some time. Check the graph recently compiled by the SBC Executive Committee comparing various congregation types over the 1990-2018 period. You may find this and other data in Ronnie Floyd s recent excellent and informative article: A statistical analysis of growth in SBC congregations by race and [ ]Go to page 1Go to page 2Go to page 3Interim pages omitted Go to page 438Go to Next Page Primary SidebarFacebookRSSTwitter
