Privilege, Master Process, and More: Details from the SA Task Force you may have missed

September 30, 2021 by Brent Hobbs

This document was released on Tuesday, but if you’re like me, you may have missed it or not read it fully because of the Executive Committee meeting taking place that day. I think it’s worth reposting here because it contains a lot of helpful details as well as answering a lot of the common objections […]

Historian Nathan Finn on SBC Fundamentalism, Then and Now

June 23, 2021 by Brent Hobbs

I believe this is helpful historical context for understanding the current tensions within the SBC. While some in the SBC are concerned about progressive drift, they seem more like the denominational fundamentalists of the 1960s than the resurgent conservatives of the 1980s. Institutional mistrust, populist concerns about leaders, the attraction to conspiracy theories, and the influence of far-right views of culture echo mid-20th century denominational fundamentalism in the SBC. More important, they reflect current trends in the wider culture. To be sure, there are real progressive threats out there. But the SBC doesn’t need a new Conservative Resurgence.

June 16, 2021 by Brent Hobbs

In a bizarre parliamentary situation, the nomination speeches for SBC Recording Secretary were given near the end of the business session this evening, but the vote will not take place until tomorrow (Wednesday) morning. Messengers tomorrow may not get to hear the speeches again. We think it’s important for you to hear why a vote […]

On Tuesday afternoon I’ll be nominating Pastor Ramon Medina for the position of Second Vice President of the SBC, and I hope you’ll prayerfully consider voting for him. With all the significant issues facing our convention right now, it’s vitally important for the newly elected SBC president to have qualified voices surrounding him to help […]

These Additional Steps Needed in SBC EC Investigation

June 13, 2021 by Brent Hobbs

Recently the SBC Executive Committee announced that they had hired Guidepost Solutions to conduct an “independent process assessment” in response to “recent accusations of the inappropriate handling of sexual abuse claims.” Response was varied, from affirming to skeptical to critical. The first question was about the firm they hired. Guidepost has handled some high-profile abuse […]

Nashville, We Have a Problem. Al Mohler Is Not the Answer.

June 11, 2021 by Brent Hobbs

We’re only a few days away from the SBC Presidential Election. It’s the time of year when people who aren’t paying much attention the rest of the year begin to consider the choices they’ll make at the Annual Meeting.  I know many people have already made up their minds about who they’ll be voting for […]
