The Baptist Leaders podcast is back! . Join us at 3pm ET today for a special livestream with @dmichaelclary as we talk through his analysis of SBC 2025, the “four groups” he sees at work in the SBC (Platform, Normies, Loyalists, and Reformers) and where we go from here!

RT @Pasquat2: Great article, good eye for the root of the issue. Thanks @jonharris1989 and @BaptistLeaders for sharing it.

"It was striking to me that three churches of varying sizes and locations faced remarkably similar challenges. In each case, the changes began with the arrival of a new pastor and the influence of individuals tied to Southern Baptist networks.". @jonharris1989 debuts at CBL.

> FBC Naples was destroyed by a woke mob.> McClean Bible Church's independence was subverted by David Platt .> FBC Knightdale was almost ruined by Summit Church's takeover attempt. The common thread in each case: SBC Elites. @jonharris1989 breaks it down.

While Eastern Orthodox and Rome poach young people seeking tradition, the SBC is foolishly following the siren song of a watered down, non-denominational-lite approach of downplaying our Baptist heritage. @bethanyymmiller warns this only leads to decline.

RT @merelyjwright: That pull quote is interesting. If your church is named for whatever was paved over to build it ("Willow Brook") or some….

“In a time of confusion, let’s offer clarity. In a time of compromise, let’s hold fast to conviction. In a time of division and drift, let’s unite around truth. The task is challenging, but the reward is great: a renewed Baptist witness that shines like a city on a hill.”.
