This is so very true….it is amazing how many students coming to our seminaries have never heard of WA Criswell, Adrian Rogers and so many others much less the incredible contributions they made. Count Zinderdorf nailed it 300 yrs ago “Preach the gospel, die, and be forgotten”

What will it take for the SBC to turnaround? 1. Humility and prayer. 2. Doctrinal Integrity 3. Prioritizing the Great Commission 4. Embrace the Core Values of Unity, Relationships, and Trust. 5. Return REAL cooperation with some form of Cooperative Agreements

Question for @NAMB_SBC. Of the 3,299 NAMB Missionaries reported in the 2024 SBC Book of Reports, how many are (1) receiving full-time financial support from NAMB, (2) partial financial support from NAMB, (3) are volunteer missionaries. @sendnetwork @vancepitman

The SEND NETWORK has some of the best church planting minds and practitioners in NA. More than anything, these numbers represent the impact of the approved GCR to centralize & prioritize church planting at NAMB, at the expense of evangelism and healthy partnerships.

As we approach #SBC2024 in Indianapolis, IN, I want to publicly thank our president @bartbarber for the way he has led us these past two years with integrity and civility. We are praying for you as you lead us June 11-12!

Skipping over implementing recommendation #2 "Core Values" of the original GCR speaks volumes about the worldly pragmatism of how we go about the Lord's work in the SBC. Imagine the possibilities if we truly embraced the values of "Christ-likeness, truth, unity, relationships".
I’m very proud of the work we did and am so thankful for the integrity, wisdom, intellect, passion and cooperative spirit of my fellow co-laborers, Robin Foster, Adam Groza, Luke Holmes, Chris Shaffer & Jeremy Westbrook. Recommendations still to come. https://t.co/mVDoLrHeV2

I want to publicly thank @_JayAdkins and this GCR Evaluation Team for the great job they did on this report. I was very reluctant to make the motion at #SBC2023 calling for this study. After reading the report, I'm glad the Lord wouldn't leave me alone till I did.

Skilled trades are a great option. Lots of opportunities and there will be a need wherever you go.
Considering various factors, the average worship attendance needed to support the salary and benefits of a full-time ordained pastor/minister is 150-200. The current average worship attendance across all congregations in the U.S. is 65. #Bivocational #Covocational #Micro

Been a @denzelward fan since his Buckeye days. Our church did a small Sports Camp in Macedonia, OH in 2008. I was looking at our camp picture. Is that @denzelward in the middle row, third from the left?
