Brent Leatherwood is a leader with integrity, courage and humility. I am grateful for his service in leading the ERLC, arguably the most challenging leadership assignment in the SBC.

Illegal alien encounters at the border are down 94% thanks to President Trump's leadership. @POTUS is making America SAFE again!

Thankful for Southern Baptists!
Rolling out! Urgently needed supplies have left our rapid response warehouse and are making their way to sites all across the devastated Southeast. Your gifts make this possible! Thank you!

Isaiah 2:22 Stop trusting in mere humans, who have but a breath in their nostrils. Why hold them in esteem?

I deeply appreciate everyone who has reached out, especially our trustees who were absolutely bewildered at what took place yesterday and jumped in to set the record straight. More to come.

Just had the opportunity to meet Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. I let him know that Israel has—especially after the horrible attacks of Oct. 7th—the fervent prayers of so many Southern Baptists.

PRESS RELEASE: “In a democracy like ours, we voice our opinions, we passionately press our case, we bravely dissent, and we loudly campaign for our cause. But we must never cross the line to harm those we disagree with.” - @LeatherwoodERLC

Political violence has hurt too many individuals and taken too many lives in our history. Now is the moment for all of us to unite...

Let’s all stop to pray for President Trump in this moment and that those responsible will be swiftly apprehended and brought to justice.

The SBC's decline corresponds with the shift towards fundamentalism and away from evangelicalism. What was a big-tent conservative group is becoming a narrow fundamentalist group. I do not anticipate the SBC changing course any time soon. Thus, declines will continue. #SBC24
There's a lot of media coverage of the Southern Baptist Convention because it serves as a bellwether for evangelicalism. But the share of all evangelicals who are Southern Baptist is declining, from 23% to 18%. In 1984, 5% of evangelicals were non-denom. In 2022, it was 40%.

Jesus prayer for us. John 17:11 I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one as we are one.
